And wow what a great Friday it is! Such a huge reason to celebrate! Anyways, just wanted to wish you all a Happy Easter! Last night after dinner, we ran by this store to pick up some last minute easter candy! LOL
I think I went overboard too! OH well! Anyways, as I was walking down the aisles, spotted these adorable pink shabby cups! OMG! Had to grab them! Aren't they cute! Certainly perfect for talking shabby with my girlfriends! LOL
Also, LOOOVE this magazine-Cottage Style! And had to snap a few to show you just how dh and I view different decorating styles! LOL I'm sitting there looking through this magazine and shabby daddy is like "yeah I like that" and "nooo I don't like that". Our styles are so different. But I'd say they are both pretty tasteful! So I had to share with you some pictures of what he likes and what I like! But I think in the end, we both will make a compromise. And choose a semi-shabby-retro-old-vintage-antique-dark kinda look! LOL I seriously think my cute hubby could go for this retro look..but more so in a basement, coffee shop or a den. Some place for him to invite his buds over for pool or something.
So here's what I came up with! LOL And....all these adorable goodies came from Gina Wina!
So I hope you all enjoy your beautiful Easter holiday! :) Smoochies!

Edited to add:
OMG so sorry I didn't tell you "what" store! LOL They came from Target~ and they were 30% off and they had matching salad plates, dinner plates and bowls and all those had scalloped edges! CUUUUTE!!!!

Happy Easter!! I haven't picked up our Easter basket candy yet...hope there's some left when we get there :). I'm like you on the shabby taste. But my hubby's more pottery barn-ish (which I also like). So that is what most of the house looks like, and I got to do the guest BR and bath in shabby chic!

Oh yes - Miss Jenn! We NEED to know where you got those shabby pink mugs. They are my kinda mug. I have to say my taste is like yours - only I'm cluttery - ugh - not like "shabby daddy's." Happy Easter to you and your family. We just got back from the community Good Friday service - so much to think about! Blessings, Noelle
