Sunshine

Monday, February 21, 2011

I'm off to a lazy start this morning, thanks to the President's Day holiday and a cozy, warm bed to curl up into. With all the rain we've had in San Francisco, these cheerful blooms are the perfect pick-me-up; who can resist sunny yellows and wildflowers? And I'm wild for those mason jars painted a simple shade of cream, aren't you?

    Those are really cute! Sometimes I think the clear ones can be too eclectic looking, but this classes them right up!

    love all the details, especially the burst of color from the creme matte of the jar. I'm trying my best to stay focused and get some work done today but my bed is far too enticing. not really complaining ;)

    So happy you enjoyed my guest post at Long Distance Loving! The flowers are the perfect start to the week. I've never seen a painted mason jar -- it looks gorgeous (and easy to recreate, which is always good considering my nonexistent crafty side!).

    Very pretty! We had 4 days without rain. 4 DAYS!!! Now there is snow in the forecast. I'll be buying myself some flowers for sure!

    Happy President's Day!

    ps. I just read a DIY on painting mason jars. Apparently the way to do it is to paint on the inside! ;)

    You have such a good eye - I would totally have missed those mason jars. Love that idea, though!

    These flowers are so lovely. We created this look on our wedding day too. Long white tables with a long line of jams jars stuffed with flowers. It looked better than I ever imagined and cost practically nothing to do. The mason jars are cute though I agree xx
