FOR HER (aka as things I’d feel lucky to find under the tree;)

sconce  / oval cabochon ring  /   earthenwear pitcher  /    brown leather doctor bag

edit: btw I know that sconce is rather indulgent, but I’m having quite an obsession with it, so I had to add it :)

Here were my favorite pins this week:

This made me laugh because I pretty much always have paint on my hands, and the day I saw this I had stepped in some as well :)

Here were some of my favorite pins this week, have a lovely weekend…
