I finally ordered the shelves for my office makeover and I cannot wait for them to arrive. I had already planned on painting them gold, but I also love this tutorial on the faux marble shelves. I'm thinking I might have to do this along with paint it. Now I need to find some items to fill the shelves with. I am in love with this illustration (picture from top of post) from Rebecca Hinson. Everything she creates is stunning! So much talent and she is from Charleston. So, all her creations have my heart. 

Our duvet insert has been on its last leg for a while now, so I finally ventured out this weekend and picked up a new one from Home Goods, it is Eddie Bauer and it is super soft. Even though that is all I went to Home Goods for, that is not all I walked out with. I picked up a set of salt and pepper shakers in Ralph Lauren's Blue Mandarin, the cutest little julep cup and a giant blue and white vase that I found on sale! I needed another blue and white vase like I need a hole in my head, but it was too cute to pass up!

Tomorrow, February 9th, is the last day to get 20% off my favorite cocktail napkins from the lovely ladies at Lumina Embroidery. Head over to their Etsy shop, pile lots of monogrammed goodies in your cart, then enter HappyBirthday20 at check out. With this code you can get a set of 4 monogrammed cocktail napkins for under $18! I ordered a set on Tuesday and they came in the mail on Saturday. Talk about service!!

This winter has killed my skin, especially my hands, more than usual so I had been hunting for a nice rich hand cream that wasn't too thick but also did the job. I finally settled on this amazing lotion from K Hall. It goes on thick but it doesn't feel slimy or gross on my hands. The peony scent is also amazing, but if you don't like it there are more to choose from. 

Lastly, I order this tray and I cannot wait for it to come in. It comes in 3 sizes. I ordered the large, but I love all 3 sizes! I'm thinking it will look perfect on the dresser/cabinet in the kitchen. I think a few pineapple tumblers and a few thing things will fill it out nicely.

Here are some of my other pineapple favorites
