I LOVE my huge glass jar filled with pretty cupcake cases, but truthfully, it had been getting a bit disorganized as of late. My wrapper collection had been growing and my jar wasn't getting any bigger, so something had to give. It was time for a little cupcake case organization.
I purged some oldies and added some new favorites.
I am happy with the result and, hopefully, I will be able to keep it this way for at least a few days. :-)

These pretty macarons look good enough to eat...but don't! They are made of paper and cloth! They are from a delicious new line of macaron-themed products at Paper Source!
I am loving my new macaron dish towels and paper napkins.
They also have super cute stationary and beautiful gift wrap. You can find them all here.
Happy shopping!

Up until recently, my desk chair was of the purely practical variety. It was just your average, office-type desk chair - I think I bought it at Pottery Barn years ago and it was perfectly fine. But it wasn't particularly pretty. Now, given that "pretty" is the basic requirement of most items that make their way into my home, it's rather surprising that it lasted around here as long as it did. I had been looking for a replacement and when I found this shabby, french style armchair, I knew it would be perfect. It came upholstered in a nice beige linen, but I wanted something slightly more colorful and special.
So, I decided to have it reupholstered in this gorgeous vintage fabric from the 1940's.
I had been saving it for years, as I usually just stash away my vintage fabrics for future projects that never seem to materialize. Soooooo, since one of my New Year's resolutions is to actually start using more of my stuff - it seemed like the perfect choice. Now I have a pretty new desk chair...and instead of my lovely fabric just hiding away, I get to enjoy it every day!

I'm getting ready to ring in the new year with my family and I've been gathering together all the requisite party essentials. Festive party favors...
Pretty pastel confetti...
Lillet cocktails...
And glittery high heels!
Wishing all of you a very happy, healthy (and pretty!) New Year!!!

My love for vintage velvet millinery leaves is well documented, but I also adore these gorgeous, old metallic foil leaves.
The silvery, pastel colors are breathtakingly beautiful.
I believe they were orginally used as millinery accents for ornate hats and for making festive holiday corsages, but I love how they look simply tied to a gift with some pretty ribbon.

Wishing you all a wonderful holiday season!

O.K., I am probably waaaaay too old for glittery eye shadow, but I love it anyway. I discovered the NYX Cosmetics brand at Urban Outfitters some time back and I have been hooked ever since!
Their prices are absolutely incredible and their products are so much fun! This fabulous eye shadow kit filled with five glittered shadows was only $5.50 and just perfect for the holidays!
Now, I probably won't be wearing them to shop at Target anytime soon, but I am thinking that date night with the husband is a very real possibility...

When I spied this gorgeous necklace at Forever 21, I practically jumped over three other customers just to get to it! :-) The palest aqua and clear crystal rhinestones come together to form a necklace truly fit for a princess!
Soooo pretty for the holidays! And it was a bargain, too...only $14.99!

I just adore Deborah Lippmann's nail polishes! Yes, they are a bit on the pricier-side, but I think they are worth every single penny. Here are two of my newest favorites for the holidays...
I mean, how can you not love something with a name like Mermaid's Dream (greenish-blue with blue and gold glitter)...
...or Candy Shop (pink base with multi-colored glitter)???

I found these little glittery bows at Target last week...
Aren't they adorable! And, while I actually discovered them in the girls department, I think girls of any age could make them work!
Hope you had a glitter-filled weekend!
