colors

This is a post from last summer that published while we were on vacation.
I had comments OFF....
so I decided to run it again as we are busy painting furniture for our girl..
 we're thrifting...
painting with AS Chalk paint..
(can't wait to show you some of the pieces..SO AWESOME)
giggling...
drinking sweet tea (well, MINE is sweet)
and having mother/daughter/granddaughters time.






I am LOVIN' the summer sales going on at places like PIER 1.

Lots of color...bright color....stripes...polka dots...solid colors....

LUSCIOUS !

Isn't this little colorful OWL the cutest thing.
He actually is a wooden spoon set holder
but I love him with his little hat of FLOWERS.
...on the clearance table

PIER 1

Cutest cup I've ever had...

I ate ice cream out of it and I swear, the ice cream tasted 4 times better than in a plain ole bowl.

I mean, REALLY...
just look at that cute little cupcake up there on that lime green handle.....
LOVE. IT. !!
...speaking of BOWLS...


  I fell in luv with these adorable and brightly colored ice cream
bowls that work equally as well for cereal...
I can't tell you how much I am enjoying all the bright, summer colors this year...
♥ ♥ ♥
I THINK the scenery out the dining room door has SOMEthing to do with my new
falling-in-love-with bright colors.....
>>>
 Anyone in their right mind would LOVE bright colors with a scene like this right outside their dining room door..
don't you think...??

  5. Happy Pink Saturday, BJ! I loved reading this post. . .you have such an eye for fun and happy items! That cup is darling...I am a cup cake lover!! Oh and that pool full of friends and grands just looks wonderful.

    Hope all is well in your world. We are soggy in KC with tons and tons of rain. . .I know parts of TX have been hammered by them, too. Hope your area is ok!

  6. This post screams summer! So much fun in the pool, all the bright colors, just love it! Those blue, yellow, red, and green bowls remind me of some very old Pyrex nesting bowls I got from my grandpa years ago - but yours are brighter. I might have to track those down! Have a wonderful weekend, BJ.

  22. I'm loving the bright summer colours too BJ. It must be wonderful to have a pool and the temperatures to enjoy it! It's been quite cool here this week (40's to upper 60's) and a risk of frost at night. I'm hoping summer weather will be here soon. Have fun painting furniture. I hope you share it with us. Pam

  26. You eat cereal in your ice cream bowls? I have BRIGHT yellow ice cream bowls that make me very happy. One day I came home to my man eating chips and dip out of my ice cream bowl!!!! Well, I got very upset. Moral of the story: ice cream bowls are not meant for dip!

  27. Your very into bright cheerful colours. Very Summery to me. I rather like the coffee mug too

  28. Funny you should mention chalk paint. I am painting furniture at The Stone House on the Hill and had hoped to find such a thing in the village hardware store. My choice was latex or gloss so I went with white latex. Sometimes the practical wins out over the decorative here in the Greek countryside! Loved the photos.

Way too much spam and people commenting that are stealing my space to post nonsense so.....no comments allowed.
So sorry but I have no other choice.
I love my blogging friends and most of all my family but these spam prone people are so rude and selfish have made my blogging not nearly as much fun..
