The Passion

 

It is obvious that we can no more explain a passion to a person who has never experienced it than we can explain light to the blind. -T. S. Eliot

We all have a space to create, dream, inspire, to be inspired, to plan and to scheme. In other words, we all have a place where our passions are born. For some of us this may be a desk or office space, for others it may be in nature. But, no matter the place we all have a passion for something, some one, some where and today is a new day to realize these passions! 

What will you do with it?

Vintage Canisters

I've been wanting to pretty up my bathroom counters lately and I think a nice collection of vintage jars and canisters fit the bill perfectly. Mind you, I've barely made any progress on my bathroom renovation but I have to look forward to the good stuff. This will help keep my mind off the piles of rubble and exposed plumbing otherwise known as my master bath. Luckily, my dad is coming this weekend to help me tear out a wall and the fur-down over the sinks. I've also sourced and priced all necessary materials, holla for progress, slow...sweet...progress.

I will definitely need a jar for bath salts next to my new JETTED tub (!)

Raise your hand if you love this!

A tray always makes me feel organized

Chocolate, perfume, is there really a difference? All I know is, I'm addicted.

A quick search on etsy revealed some great options

Not vintage but good if you are organizationally challenged

I think will hold out and search for my own though. I love a good vintage hunting trip!

Up Close and Personal

I love seeing shots of big fancy pretty rooms but it's often the details that really get me. I'm a very meticulous soul and I like everything to be arranged just so. It's not that I'm anal or anything, I like to call it "being particular". I often create little vignettes around my house on the weekends and change them out frequently. It's a luxury I didn't enjoy in an apartment for sure. Now it's time to stop an appreciate the little things...

After seeing this picture I'm now searching for an antique rotary phone. I have no landline mind you, I just want the phone because it's pretty!

At work we like to call this "creating a moment". We create moments like there's no tomorrow!

I hope everyone is having a wonderful first half of the week!
