Colorful Finds from West Elm





Good morning! This is going to be a brief post because I have a full day today....lots of groceries to buy and errands to run. Oh, yippee! Before I head out I thought I'd share a couple of thoughts with you and a few products from West Elm. I love the COLORS West Elm chooses for their products and website....very SERENE and PEACEFUL. Even their REDS and ORANGES are muted so that their website appears calming and not overly energetic. COLOR plays such an important role in our lives, doesn't it? Recently I've had some issues with my eyes (nerve damage) and it's really been a reminder to me how much I value my sight. COLOR adds so much richness to ordinary days. Seriously, imagine a world in BLACK and WHITE. Hmmmmmm......not too pretty. Today I'm just feeling extra thankful for my sight and for a world that's overflowing with BEAUTY and COLOR. How about you? How does color enrich your life?

    I just got the new catalog and have bookmarked almost every page! I am still up for the interview! I am traveling all next week, but if you want to send the questions when you get a chance I will get them to you as soon as I return.

    Love West Elm! Christy: I have the pin tuck duvet. It's beautiful and I love it, BUT, you have to be kind of gentle, no pulling or the pin tucks pop out! (But much more affordable than anthropologies version :)
