A Huge Crush!!!

I have a little decor related crush that I may never recover from!!! This gorgeous Ikat rug is so drool worthy. It has all the shades I absolutely love. The Ikat rage continues.......and I am no exception :-) It is way beyond my budget ......and at some point I have to get over it!! However, for now.... I can't help feel what I feel :-)

Afternoon Sun

Its one of those quiet afternoons.....at home!! The household is asleep and my son is playing in the park outside. I can hear the endless chatter of at least ten kids enjoying the last few days of their vacation. The sun is streaming in and with a cup of tea....I contemplate, day dream, write and enjoy this lovely day. My breakfast nook is finally presentable :-) The afternoon sun gives my home a warm glow and my camera keeps clicking away.........

Have a wonderful day.....

A Silver rose just for You!

As you all know by now.....I love flowers :-) Well, who doesn't, right? A few stems here and there brighten up your living space. They make my home look cheerful and make me smile :-) Despite my weakness for fresh flowers, I am totally in love with this rose dipped in silver. A single stem or a few stems in a vase can give your room a very elegant look. Yes, its an actual rose coated with silver. This is my new pick for the Shop at My Dream Canvas. Over time and during my travels I have collected many special things for my online boutique. This one is definitely a  personal favorite...........

Please contact me at anuseattle@gmail.com for further details and pricing. Each stem is approximately 12 inches long and no two stems are identical.

Summer Dreams and a new week!

A new week dawns......hope your weekend was fun? Mine was action packed with tonnes of yummy food and walks by the lake! Summer for us seems to be slowly fading away and I want to make the most of it.  I have to get ready for the new school year, lots of errands to run, a birthday to plan........my list of things to do is endless. However, today I want to focus on the best of summer....alfresco dining! These lovely spaces......make my summer dreams come alive:-)

Have a lovely week my friends.......
