Liberty of London for Target

Tomorrow at 8:00 am sharp I will be at.... My local Target!!!!! Target has partnered with Liberty of London to bring us this incredible smorgasbord of budget friendly floral products, from clothing to home decor, even bicycles!!! You may know how much I love Liberty's, I posted about my latest acquisitions here... When I lived in London, I visited Liberty's at least once a month, for my fabric fix (fabric there is VERY expensive, so I built my stash a little at a time). Tomorrow is their official launch, and I wouldn't miss it!! If you can't wait until 8:00 am to shop, you can always go online at midnight, the collection will be available then. "Tar-jay", here I come!!!

My new {old} cabinet

I found this cabinet at Expo last weekend and absolutely love it!!!! I cleaned the outside but still have to wipe inside (major cobwebs in there!!!). I know, this is one of those pieces my mom would be absolutely horrified to know that I actually paid money for it, lol!!!!






The days have been very rainy and gloomy here in the PNW, my favorite days to stay in and nest, but if you want a fun sale to go to tomorrow, then you do not want to miss the 4 Friends Sale, put together by Joy, Diane, Martha and Betty!!! This annual sale is a shop hop, you go from one sale to another.... That means FOUR times the fun!!! Check out their blogs for more information!!!

Her sale, held on her beautiful historic property in the outskirts of Portland will take place this Friday only, from 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm.  Her treasures are gone soon, so be there early for your chance at getting some wonderful vintage French goodies!!! I know I will!

White Wednesday ~ Chez mom

I have been wanting to participate in my friend Kathleen's White Wednesdays for a long time.... On this post, I am very excited to share pictures of my mom's home in Portugal.
