Fresh Spring Style...

Happy Friday Everyone!  I am so excited about spring being just around the corner
and I am especially excited about the new spring looks in my shoppe.  They are easy
to wear and can be layered with other pieces.   I'm loving neutral, natural tones like 
those found in pearls, sparkling rhinestones, black crystals and vintage whites.  These are just
a few of the new spring pieces in the shoppe.










Easy to wear, versatile pieces.  Stop by French Feather Designs and see
the entire collection.

Have a great weekend!

A Heartfelt Thank You To Jennifer...

Blogging has so many benefits and rewards.
Making new friends for me is the highlight.
I will admit that I am not a super regular poster here on my
little blog but I do go to my "Blogs I Love" list on my sidebar
to catch up with people.  
One of the people that I have recently met and started following is
Jennifer at Laughter and Grace.  
She has a delightful blog with posts on baking,
decorating, creativity, photography, thrifting and SO much more.
Recently Jennifer had a very awesome giveaway at 
and to my surprise I was the recipient of her special giveaway!  Her package
arrived yesterday and I wanted to share my opening of it 
with all of you.
So here we go...

I already slit the tape...I'm so excited!

Here is the first peek inside.  Can't wait to show you what it is!

It is a Martha Stewart Home Office small three ring binder and all the
pockets, tabbed dividers, zippered pockets, labels and fabric 
elastic band for putting together a coupon binder.

I love the colors which are true Martha!



All these super great items from Martha Stewart's Home Office
line can be found at Staples stores and on line.

This sweet note from Jennifer is now hanging on my memo/inspiration board
in my work room.  What she says here is what 
I love most about blogging...making new friends.

Thank you Jennifer for this wonderful giveaway gift!
I absolutely LOVE it!

Please be sure and stop by Jennifer's blog,
to say Hi and you should definitely become her newest
follower.  You won't be disappointed!

xoxo

Easy Accessorizing...


I love the look of a perfectly accessorized table or any small space.
And when that small space happens to be a focal point in a room
all the more reason to do it up right.
I just wanted to share a few examples of 
beautiful, well done and easy to duplicate accessorizing.

A small silver or pewter tray is the easiest way to group a small 
collection of lovelies for displaying.  It works so well in a bathroom 
or a hallway table too.

A gorgeous distressed buffet table staged with a silver tray
 and pretty glasses.

A bedroom dressing table is an ideal spot for gathering pretty
momentous for enjoying and small dishes for setting
jewelry into.

French wire egg baskets and galvanized containers are perfect
for organizing and accessorizing bathroom essentials
like towels and soap.

The possibilities are endless.

Hope you found something here to take away and use in you
own home.
Valentine's Day is almost here.  Be sure and check out all the "pink and white" 
sparkle in my shoppe.

Have a great weekend!!

xoxo
