In Need of Some Color


I'm desperate for a little color in my life. It's gray outside, yesterday it rained ice, something needs to change here. One of these items should do it, or I could just go get a tan on a beach somewhere. I'm okay with either option.

[mosaic card; reclaimed wood; abstract print; bird pillow]

    Either one sounds just about perfect right now- or the sun could decide to come out. I think I'd be okay with that option, too.

    The card and the pillow are right up my alley!! There's something about bright colors in winter. A reminder of spring I think. Please let it get here soon...

    I'm with you, I need some warm sun, not freezing cold sun. It's 18 outside and sunny but the sun doesn't really help that much when it's that cold. I'm craving a vacation to Mexico at the moment. My husband is on a biz trip to Toronto right now so I'm sure it wouldn't be toooo hard to convince him after this!
