Four Fanciful Things: Cuff Me

Face it kids... Cuffs are Cool.  Not the kind you wear when you get in trouble... the fashion statement kind.  Or maybe just state of mind kind.  I have a dark navy beaded cuff that I call my "power bracelet."  It reminds me of Wonder Woman and can be used to block unwanted criticism or whatever.  The right cuff needs to be comfortable and not too tight.  I like cuffs because they don't move around like bangles.  Not that I have anything against bangles... they're cool too.  But in more of a jingle-jangle way... not so much female super hero.  Which is necessary at times.

four fanciful things: terrain

 

 I feel so thankful that terrain has included pictures with plants on their site to really make me want them even more.  The pots they offer are ever so cool.  Some out of my personal price range, I'm not going to lie, but does put me on the serious look out for imposters.

 

Please check out terrain.com for more of their fabulous looks.

Bathing Suit ~ Ann Taylor.com

Hammock ~ Ikea

Flower Bowl ~ Ikea

Dishtowels ~ Ikea

 

The sad part of this beautiful and colorful list is that I can't order the items from Ikea online and the store nearest home is four hours away in Atlanta.  Is there a roadtrip in my future?  I can just see chunks of cold watermelon in the sweet bowl and me... lounging in the woods at Camp Hulsey in the hammock wiping the watermelon from my chin with the cheeky, matching dishtowels. 

Ahhh a summer dream.

 

 

I am in search of a new bathing suit and am frankly a bit shocked at what I have been finding.  I am approaching forty for crying out loud.  I don't want my bottoms to go below my hip bone.  I want my tush covered people.. is that so wrong?  And they aren't cheap to boot.

 I love this blue one from Ann Taylor with the Chevron stripes.  So cute!

Not that I consider all of these oddly unnecessary, I enjoy each of them!  We have many animals adorning the walls of our home.  Click on the following links to find the treasures I found.

 

1.  I would LOVE to have the squirrel head! 

 

2.  The craftiness of paper mache never ceases to amaze me.  I once said that I truly believe I could build a town from it! 

 

3.  Driftwood has such a rich quality.  I need to search for more of it in the creek.

 

4.  Shabby chic moose head hooks.  Adorable!  I may lean more towards white.

four fanciful things: world market style

I am a World Market fan... big time!  It is the only place that I will buy olive oil and i know if I can't find a good price on spices, I can there.  I love what they have to offer in home decor as well.  Matter of fact I just happened on their website this morning and chose four fanciful things to share with you in a heartbeat of a hummingbird.

Layer Cake Shop is one of my very favorite shops online!  It is where I find very satisfying selections of things like baker's twine, cello bags, labels, and tinting and flavoring supplies.  They have reasonable pricing and fast shipping.  I have never had a bad experience with these gals and recommend them anytime!  Even if you don't bake it is a great place for fun stuff that can also be used in craft supplies and parties.

Four Fanciful Things

 

I found Dots while on my lunch break one day at my previous employer.  I have always loved to browse uncharted territory in search of new honey pots and this is exactly what I found at Dots. 

My favorite items that I have from there include mostly solid colored long sleeve T's, short sleeve T's and adjustable strap tanks.  If I ever need a quick top for a night out I know I can find it there.  I also love that the tops that I get have a great length and come down past my waist which is good for layering or normal wear.  They also have awesome clearance sales and a lot of the time I can get my tops for less than five dollars each.  The location that I go to is by WalMart on Dickerson Road.  So if you are in the area stop by!

Four Fanciful Things.  That would just tickle my fancy to have. 

Some I will, some I won't but they are still fanciful!
