First of all, I want to thank everyone who read, commented, or emailed me about my last post. I really appreciate all of your support, and I am working on getting back to each of you.
I know it is not summer yet, but I thought I would get a little head start! Recently, my mother in law and sister in law and I were able to make one of our semi-annual trips to Pottery Barn. My husband doesn't understand how we can make a whole day out of going to a store that is only 45 minutes away. I told him that to us, it is sort of like a museum. We walk around the whole store a few times, intently studying all the different displays and new items. And then, if we are going to make a purchase, deciding actually what to buy is a whole other ordeal!
I love Pottery Barn pillows! They are well made and easily interchangeable. Usually I buy them off of Ebay, they are often much less expensive. In case anyone is looking to do the same thing, I recently discovered that the reason you can find so many brand new Pottery Barn items on Ebay is because when something is returned to the store it goes immediately to the Pottery Barn Outlet, even if it is in perfect condition. Then Ebay sellers buy the item at a deep discount and sell it online. Since we are in Canada the Pottery Barn Outlet is a magical place I have only heard about, but I would love to go someday!
Also, to my fellow Canadians, in my limited Ebay experience I find that often sellers in the US are willing to ship to Canada, so even if they have not specified it in the ad I always email to ask and usually they will.Anyways, I was lucky enough to find these two blue striped linen pillow covers on our recent trip. They were marked down since the last time I was there so I had to get them!
The old blue sap bucket is from White Flower Farmhouse, my favourite place to shop online. Lori and Megan have amazing taste and their prices are so affordable. The beautiful white carnations are from my Mother in law.
I hope you are all having a wonderful week!
