Ruffled

This week is flying by fast. I can't believe Christmas is right around the corner.

Today I am sharing the lovely ruffled bag I won from Secret Garden Cottage and Lavender Fields Home Boutique a few weeks back.

Thank you so much Jo and Lori. And Lori, I adored the scent of the lavender sachet you included; it's now lovingly stored in a dresser drawer. I am loving it very much and it is perfect for me since I love white. It has already been used as a nice weekend away bag and washed on delicate cycle to give it that soft and fluffy feel.

Here I am taking a peek photo from my kitchen door way out at a corner of the entryway, which has been cleaned of kid's coats, boots and the like. So, definitely not real life here.. though this is the way I wished my home looked all the time... clean-looking and uncluttered... and of course, candles were not lit for the sake of safety...

We have a full scheduled weekend: buy back text book day at the college, gift shopping, appointments, meet up with sister-in-law with her truck at Ikea so we can get our new kitchen table and chairs.. amongst many other things. Busy, busy. It's only Wednesday and I'm thinking about the weekend already knowing that it will be a whirlwind... so I am preparing myself to remember to breathe already. I'll bet you have a crazy filled weekend schedule, too... what's on it?
