A Giveaway Honoring Lisa


(Image by Robyn)

Our dear friend Robyn from Life by Chocolate,
who posted a lovely tribute here, 
is hosting a giveaway in honor of Lisa. 

As Robyn so beautifully said,
"Lisa was completely unselfish. I think she’d like this. In fact, I think she’s say: “Tink!”
Here’s hoping to lift spirits, and raise cancer awareness, in support of those afflicted by this horrid disease."

Please take a moment and visit her thoughtful giveaway here.

We love you Lisa,
xoxo
Trish

Look What I Got!



The first time I saw it, I fell in love with the print. I decided to follow the blog, Bright, Bold, & Beautiful I loved the print that much. Then I found out the print was called Sex and the City, and it became a little obsession for me. Lastly, I got to know the lady behind the blog, Laura Trevey, the artist behind this watercolor, and it became a must have right now.

As I have mentioned previously to you, My John recently took our smallest bedroom and turned it in to a huge closet for me. A dressing room, with custom built shoe, handbag, and accessories shelving. Before he was a Captain, his title was Master Carpenter, and I'm a lucky girl. It's not quite done yet, but when it is, I will do a little looksie for you here at the swing.

It came time to paint the closet. I coordinated the paint, around this picture. A soft butter not quite yellow, but along the lines. The recesses are being painted the exact color blue of the dress above. Yes, I loved it that much.

to go to Laura's Etsy shop, I'm not even going to tell you what all is there, go and see. Here's a hint, I love the blue shoe!

When I received the print in the mail it was even more spectacular as I could almost feel the ruffles of the red dress brushing against me. I am in search of the perfect sapphire frame.
Laura also enclosed a hand written note, that I will cherish from my time here in the blog world.

Happy Weekend,
Love,
The Bumpkin
