Pretty in Pink

Summer officially arrived this week!   For me, that means warm weather, fruity frozen drinks, flip flops, blooming flowers, spending time at the beach, and of course, lots of shopping!  Isn’t it wonderful to be a girl?

Visited Etsy and wow, did I come across so many beautiful and luscious items.  I wish I could post all of the wonderful things I came across, but we know that would take far too long.  So here are a few that were memorable…

From Left to Right, Top to Bottom:  Gourmet Soap, Large Pink Peony Flower, Marimekko Pillow Cover,   Cupcake Pin Cushion, and Cupcake Wrappers.

The gourmet soap was described as “An innocent, fresh, lightly floral, sparkling and fruity blend…” – sounds almost good enough to eat!  The large peony is so natural and would be lovely either pinned in your hair or on a light summery cardigan.  Peonies have to be one of the most gorgeous flowers. Hopefully my transplanted peonies survive and bloom half as nice as the one above (so far no buds!).

I have had cupcakes on my mind this week and by complete accident came across the cupcake wrappers.  These are such a popular choice for adding to the presentation of cupcakes – I would guess that even badly decorated cupcakes would look good!  I really need to utilize the decorating tip I bought this weekend and try my hand at decorating cupcakes.
