Hey there! Hope your week is off to a terrific start. I'm still coming down from my weekend shopping high. My friend Valerie and I hit the open road bound for Jeffersonville and West Chester, Ohio on Friday.
Those towns might not sound like a premier destination. However, with outlet stores like Pottery Barn, Ballard Designs and Frontgate, plus a giant IKEA, they are a bargain shopper's paradise. I got some great deals that I'll share with you soon.
In other news… I picked up this book of papers at Hobby Lobby a few weeks ago for a little craft project.
I love the different designs, and the soft pastel water colors of the paper.
I thought they'd look pretty framed and hanging on the wall.

Love the ombre shading of these papers from Designers Guild.

Now… if you're a bit more daring ... you could try one of these options from Black Crow Studios...

What do you think? Love? Hate? I could definitely get on board with one of the more subtle papers. I think it would look fantastic in a powder room, dining room or home office.
Enjoy the rest of your Monday!!
