I have been putting in more effort with myGratitude lately.
I have been starting my days withGratitude Lists for years now.
A personal ritual of morning coffee, goals and gratitudeswritten down.
This last weekI have spent more time during my daylooking for Micro Moments of Beauty and JoyAnd there are really so manyas I slow down enough to intentionally look.
When I find them I push them into my heartand the more I collectthe happier and more hopeful I become.Small moments like a beautiful sunrisebringing the possibilities in a brand new day.
Literally shopping my closetto put together a morning in the gardenloungewear set.It makes me enjoy my mornings even morebecause I get much happiness from wearing clothes I love.
This beautiful blue and white robe has been hanging in my closeta couple of years unworn.It is a sentimental souvenir from a fabulous hotelJeff and I stayed at in Austin Texas.
I paired it with a couple of pieces from Anthropologie and voilamore morning happinessandI had it all the time.
I just had to slow down enough to play in my own closets!
The morning light coming incan just stop me in my trackswith the beauty.
I use the same flowers throughout my living/ dining room area.I love the visual continuity it provides.I keep it simple with small vases in several placesthat just drop into vignettes.This week instead of flowersI used trimmings from my dwarf olive tree.
On the dining table I used one single olive branch to freshen my summer centerpiece.I also added in a pair of my shell earringsin a stone bowlto round out the tablescape vignette.
I also added dainty olive trimmings to my candle holderthat I have on wall shelves.
I also just dropped in a couple of summer artto round out my Summer Blue and White Decor.
I really get a lot of use of
the front courtyard
in the summer morningsbecause it cool and shaded.This week I have been refining my Sea Glass Designsfor my upcomingCollection
