I’m getting ready to crack open the cookbooks and make a few cookies for tomorrow’s Art Walk. Before I go I wanted to share these gorgeous photographs from Toast. Can I wear that robe and live in that house?

martha stewart living: Black Door and Planters

Elisabeth from Black Pearl Press just scanned this photo from Martha Stewart Living in for me! I love the black door with the slate walkway paired with overflowing pots of green. So pretty. I think the key to my patio will be adding layers of planters at different heights.

I kinda love this idea from Martha Stewart. Terra cotta flower pots placed inside window boxes frames are sweet and different. I can imagine them outside a kitchen window or on a pretty little cottage. The swiss dot curtains makes the photo extra awesome.

Beautiful chevron patterning that made me look twice. The photographs are aerial shots of parking lots in Florida taken by photographer Alex MacLean. Kinda beautiful.

Enjoying Spring In New England

Posted on | April 29, 2009 | 3 Comments

Lobster Boat

One last post for the night. I promised myself I have to exercise everyday for 45 minutes. I didn’t feel like going to the gym tonight so I went out for a long walk while the sun was setting and took photos. I tried to walk fast between shots to get my heart rate up. My favorite shot is above. Below some more photos of Marblehead covered in flowers. I am loving New England in the springtime.
