to: mom

Motherhood is complete happiness for me. My children amaze me everyday and I can honestly say wouldn’t want my life any other way. As a mother, I have grown as a woman and a human being.

Having said that, I have also never been so tired, dirty, worried and had my patience tried so much as a mother. 🙂

I have an unbelievable amount of gratitude for my mom and all she did for me and a high level of respect for all the wonderful moms doing the best they can to raise happy, healthy children.

Today, we have a few treasured finds to show your mom you care on Mother’s Day.

{P.S. You should order today as Mother’s Day is 12 days away}.

italian terra cotta love

I have always loved terra-cotta {or baked earth translated in Italian} pots because they remind me of being in Italy, and they remind me of summer and beautiful flowers.

I’m heading to Home Depot this week to make this for my son’s teachers, and might have to buy a couple more terra-cotta pots to make the projects below. It’s the time of year for planting, so it’s the perfect time to start these easy, affordable DIY’s.

room for audrey

 Audrey Hepburn, that is!
She embodied {and still does} class, beauty and elegance. Her smile brightened the screen and her beauty is timeless. We three sisters are inspired by Audrey Hepburn and believe all of us women need a little piece of Audrey in our lives…so we can feel fabulous every day too.
Wear PINK or add a splash of PINK to your home.
We are obsessed with BLACK AND WHITE STRIPES. Wear or decorate with BLACK AND WHITE STRIPES.
Wear pearls or decorate with them or Tiffany-blue to celebrate BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY’S.
We love these Audrey Hepburn finds that add a little bit of fabulous to an existing space…
