Pretty Things


What do you think this looks like? I think it looks like a gorgeous sheet of the prettiest scrapbook paper on the planet.

And it was at Pier I Imports today. Can you believe that?

I don't know what they think they're doing, dabbling in the scrapbooking industry. Aren't they supposed to sell home fashions?


Oh, I guess they still do. This isn't paper, it's a plate.


And it's not at Pier I anymore. It's in my possession. In my house.

Do you want to know how I rationalized this purchase? Well, I'm going to tell you anyway. I had a gift card, I've been looking for pretty dishes to put in my practically empty dinette cabinet, and they're sooooo pretty!


Shallow, I know, but they make me happy.

    I haven't been in that store in years. I think I may have to make a stop there to see what other treasures they may have!

    Those dishes are GORGEOUS. I love red and it makes such a stunning accent. Those will look awesome in your home I'm sure. Just by the first picture, I was thinking it was going to be a pillow but I like the dishes better.

    I love the plates and agree that they would be the most beautiful scrapbook paper. Can you imagine that paper with a nice black and white photo. Oh yes, it's a plate. Congrats on the purchase.
