Organic, Gifts, B and B, farm, MY FAVORITE


Being the cotton freak that I am, I went to buy some sheets, curtains and look around and I left with all my stuff from Mary Janes Home collections. Made with organic cotton...so the .org goes with the site name.

I looked up the site and have to say it is at the top of my list for favorite sites, being number 1. Depending on where your from and where/how you grew up it will take you back to your roots.

I like to call it "keeping it real" with all the tips, products, gifts and so much more that I could write about but by the time I finished you will have already clicked the link Mary Janes Farm to see for yourself.

I hope everybody goes to the site if you are not already familiar with it and check it out. Let me know what you think of it.

Spencerian Script


I had the opportunity again to spend a couple of days learning about Spencerian Script by, in my opinion one of the best...Pat Blair. She is the only person who has ever told me anything about "pointed pen." And if you don't know who she is I will keep you in suspense until you google her...
I totally enjoyed both days and I hope to do it again some time. :-)

Learning more about Spencerian Script which is my favorite style of writing, I guess I am captivated by it. I think it is a "dainty" style with just enough detail to make it the most elegant style of script there is. Not too much--Not too little...

A MUST HAVE.... OMG!!!

A MUST HAVE....ESPECIALLY IF YOUR GETTING MARRIED!!!!

A while back I added Ponytail Pearls to my Blog, Facebook, and Website.

WELL I JUST GOT MY OWN PONYTAIL PEARLS!!!!!

I LOVE THEM!!! I got pink Akoya pearls. They are 8 to 9 mm and absolutely GORGEOUS!

SHHH!!! But everybody (the women) in my family are all getting them for gifts for Christmas.

And of course my mom is getting hers on MOTHER'S DAY!!!!

She can have your pearls drilled and ready usually within 1-3 days, various sizes for thicker or thin hair, a variety of colors....They are awesome!!

Jennifer Colina Photography


OK, Little White Book is one my favorite blogs that I follow. There are a lot of things in a lot of blogs that I absolutely love. While I was reading the "Little White Book" news...these pics caught my eye. I clicked, read and now blogging about the blog....then going to add another favorite.

The photographer that took the pictures of Courtney and her husband did such an excellent job that I sent an email letting them know that when you look at the photographs you can almost feel the love! I absolutely think they all are beautiful!

If you get a chance to take a look "c" you can click on the Little White Book above or go straight to Jennifer Colina Photography's site and/or blog.


This is just one of the boards that I got from Little White Book's blog; Photographer is Jennifer Colina.

I hope that you all take a minute to check them out....I like pretty stuff :-)

The Greenbrier Wedding



The Greenbrier in West Virginia, Defining Luxury since 1778

ONE of my favorite Brides to work with was Tara. I am going to show the invitations and place cards now and will post Tara's wedding pics later.
Tara, I wish you the best and hope you keep in touch :-)



These were written in Spencerian Script. A truly elegant font that was perfect for this wedding. An old script that suits a Greenbrier Wedding perfect.
