Quick Hello

Hi everyone, hope your all well. I just wanted to do a quick post and say hello. I've been busy with work and trying to get the magazine ready for its debut in June. I hope you will all love it! 

Having a few glitches in life right now and praying so hard for some smooth sailing soon.

I've also been reading up on photography and working on getting better with that as well.

I thought I'd show you a couple of photos of my peonies, I can't wait for them to open up and show off their magnificent blooms.

What is it about these flowers that bring such joy and beauty to life? God's gift's are miraculous are they not?!!

Wishing you all a joyous week!!

Sincerely,

Melinda

Strawberries

Good morning all, hope your all well!!! 

 

Yummy strawberries~ I had intended to make strawberry shortcake with these, but the family ended up eating them all before I had a chance.

I have been working hard on a pet project of mine and want so badly to share with you all, but I feel I need to wait until I get a bit closer to finishing up. I have some fantastic ladies that are helping me with it, so I hope I can make them proud!

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend.

Sincerely,

Melinda

French Jam Pot, French Pitcher, Lavender & Dreamy Whites

Hello all, I hope your all well!!

I know its been a while since I last posted, but I have been so busy and my blog, unfortunately, has taken a backseat to life and everything else.

I find many other bloggers have taken to posting more frequently on Facebook and especially on Instagram, which has become my favorite place to post fast photos and happenings. But I will still continue to post here as well, and hopefully it will be more frequently soon.

I wanted to show a few photos of an early b-day gift my mom got me from the lovely Maria at Dreamy Whites.

I truly adore Maria's style and I was so excited to be able have something from her fantastic shop.

 Wonderful vintage French pitchers from my growing collection.

I chose this gorgeous French blue pitcher for its color. It fits in perfectly with my others.

If you've ever ordered from Maria, when you receive your package, the heavenly smell of lavender fills the air. 

She included this lovely bunch with my pitcher.

Vintage French jam pot also from Dreamy Whites.

Hope I didn't bore you with so many photos. Thanks everyone for your continued visits, I truly appreciate it!! And thank you so much Maria for your kindness!!

Hope you have a lovely afternoon.

Lilacs & Instagram

Just wanted to share with you all my lilacs & snowballs that I got from Trader Joe's, thank goodness for T..J.'s!! The only bummer is that every time I bring home snowballs, they only last for one day and then they start to droop and die. Anyone have any tips on how to keep them going for a few extra days? 

I've been super busy lately, as I know everyone is, so I'm not sure how much I will be blogging over the next couple of months. I have a huge project I'm working on and hopefully I can let you in on it soon.

Anyway, if you want to keep up with what I'm up to, you can find me on Instagram daily, I would love to have you join me~Just click on the IG camera icon on my sidebar to follow.

Hope you all have a fantastic weekend.

Sincerely,

Melinda
