Python Keyrings....(Via Made By Girl)

Over the weekend we received a lot of entries to the Pottery Barn Giveaway here, BUT don't lose hope because of the many entries....enter anyway, you never know! 

On another note, I received a cool GIFT from a blogger friend (Chantal) in Spain.  I'm NOT one to carry a lot of keys or items on my keys, but this keyring she sent me is SUPER LIGHTWEIGHT & looks great! 


I normally carry my automatic car door opener (or whatever it's called) but it's so BLAH, don't you agree?

This keyring is just perfect, adding a chic look to my keys. Chantal, who designed these handmade rings, also makes them in a cool reddish color.  The beads are handmade by a Spanish beadmaker. They're also pretty affordable!


They're made of REAL PYTHON leather coated with a protective glossy layer. Every single one is unique! 

These KEY RINGS rings are HOT! If you're interested in one, you can contact Chantal via email here.

Interior HomeScapes....(Via Made By Girl)

If you're JUST starting your HOLIDAY shopping, you may want to check out Interior HomeScapes. I love visiting this shop, they have so much to look through, so be aware you could be on their site for DAYS! Just Kidding....well, they do have a lot.

HomeScapes has anything from lighting, furniture to wall decor items! 

I chose a few of my favorites below, but the distressed white driftwood lamp is my all time favorite piece. Enjoy shopping!

My Latest ZGallerie Purchases...

I went by ZGallerie this past weekend and bought the saber tooth tiger skull (of course it's not real) as well as a few of the crystal perfume bottles.  I like the idea of having one or two unexpected items in my home. And how about these cool Biscayne coaster set? I had to get these because my coffee table desperately needed them! Also, while at ZGallerie there were two pieces of artwork that I wanted (but didn't end up buying).


This colorful piece (Collective) by Jodi Fuchs & of course my favorite, Butterflies in Flight 2  by Jennifer Goldberger.  I hope to be back to buy at least one of those art pieces.... I just haven't made up my mind if I want to SPEND the $299......YET!

Clare Nicolson Cushions Wowweeee!

Clare Nicolson is a textile designer. Among the many things available on her site, I found these cushions to be sooo pretty! They are 18x18 & are available in both 100% cotton & 100% silk. I LOVE how the front of the cushions are totally different from the back. See more on her site.

Chick Shack

I ran across this site and I enjoyed it so much I had to post it here. The furniure and room set up in their pictures are soooo PRETTY! The Pink and Blue was in abundance throughout this site, so if you like those colors you're in luck! Chick Shack is based out of London and they offer quite a collection of painted furniture and accessories for the home inspired by French and Swedish 18th century designs. Enjoy!
