Lavender

-


I just had to share this amazing product, 


Lavender Scented Epsom Salt.


I picked up a couple of bags at The Dollar Store.


I emptied them into a vintage brown transferware bowl 


and added a large silver scalloped shell spoon to scoop the glistening crystals into my bath water.


What I didn't expect was the incredibly intoxicating scent that filled my bathroom every time I entered!





 Gotta love The Dollar Store!
Need to go back and stock up!!

Terri, this is amazing because my fabulous DIL, Robin just brought over a bag of, yes, lavender scented epsom salts. As soon as the surgeon releases me from "showers only", the lovely epson bath is the first thing I am doing!

Hello Terri

That is a find at the Dollar Store. I use this product and love it. When I have a massage, my Masseuse recommends a bath using Epson Salt, with a caution that one showers and rinses following an Epson bath.
I love how you have arranged the salts in your bathroom with such style.

Thank you Helen for the compliment and the suggestion to shower if off after a bath! Something I will definitely do from now on!

Hi Karena,
Have you opened it up and smelled it yet? It is heavenly. I suggested my friend set a bowl on her nightstand to help her sleep. My hubby absolutely loves the way the bathroom smells. We feel like we are in a spa!
Think, "Shavasana"

EUREKA!!

I found my bicycle! (my new old bicycle) The funny part is where I found it. Yesterday after finishing my post, " I'm longing for a new bicycle ," I was lamenting to my husband about how badly I wanted a bicycle of my own.  He looked at me and said, " but you have a bicycle."  (our vintage Colombia tandem beach cruiser) I said, "I know, I love the tandem but I would like my own bicycle."  He said, "You do have your own bicycle... remember you bought one at a garage sale late last summer?" The light bulb went off and the memories came flooding back!  All of a sudden I remembered the day I scored my awesome vintage bicycle at a garage sale on Briggs Avenue for $20!  I ran to the backyard where it had been covered up with a large brown tarp for the winter.  I squealed with delight at the sight of it!  I remembered when I bought it it had several small American flags attached to the front basket from being ridden in the 4th of July...

There is something about single beds... (Image via domino) I would love to sleep in a bunk bed again... if just for one night. I can just imagine the conversations that would take place in these rooms!   Summer memories are made here and here and here. Rooms with twin beds compel you to have a conversation before nodding off.   (Image via Pottery Barn Kids)   (Image via Elle Decor)   (Image courtesy of the desk of annie)   (Image via Beautiful Things to Share) (Cathy Kincaid)   Some more terrific twins...   (Image courtesy of gracie) (Image via Elle Decor)   (Image via HGTV) (Image via moodboard) (Image via Style Court) (Image via Just Beachy) Don't forget to enter my Giveaway!

Celebrating 28 years

28 years ago today I found my greatest treasure. Legends say that hummingbirds float free of time, carrying our hopes for love,  joy and celebration.  Like a hummingbird, we aspire to hover and savor each moment as it passes, embrace all that life has to offer and to celebrate the joy of everyday.  The hummingbird's delicate grace reminds us that life is rich, beauty is everywhere, every personal connection has meaning and that laughter is life's sweetest creation. Happy Anniversary Chris I love you madly!
