cute collection

September 12, 2012 |

 

I think I am officially collecting elephants. I fell in love with this guy a few months ago and yesterday this guy (above) found his way into my heart. Elephants just make me smile, and although collections can sometimes creep me out due to my obsession with minimal clutter, I think I can get on board if at least some of them serve a purpose. This little area on my dresser collects my daily jewelry wares, my favorite pic of me and the girls and this jewelry box I scored from a gift certificate to Pottery Barn Kids a generous friend gifted for Coco’s shower. Yes, I used it for myself-what!?! We have a small house and the girls’ stuff takes up most of it. So I cherish this little space of me. I think my little ring bearer will fit in quite well.

lucky girl

April 4, 2012 |

I saw this little guy the other day, and I couldn’t resist. Every time I put him on I smile-he’s so cute! I love it for so many reasons. One is that it’s the perfect length and weight-a statement piece, but a subtle statement. Another is that it’s lucky! In Thai culture an elephant with its trunk pointed up is a token of good luck. Wish I had him last week for the lottery. Maybe next time.
