Unwinding this Summer
21
items I work during the school year, and summer is my catch-up time for little projects and also DOWNtime! I get to catch up on reading, lay out to work on a tan (also reading!), and a little traveling (and guess what I do while traveling….READ!). Check out one of my favorite authors and read with me this summer! And just a few little necessary items for fun!
I CAN'T RESIST!! I love the pink ruffle crossbody, it's SO CUTE!! I'm still using my yellow floral Brighton raffia bag, and it's still in perfect condition with its yellow leather flowers…but this one takes the cake! ADORBS!!
Sofia Ruffle Raffia Crossbody Bag
I just bought this from Target, and I bought it for the gingham cover (NOT KIDDING), but it's actually got a lot of great recipes! I also LOVE the feel, texture, and the imprint on the front. Well-made book for sure. SO sweet!
Every Day with Babs - by Barbara Costello
The most ADORABLE, functional pillow with perfect reviews! WHY IS THIS NOT IN STORES?! Ordered! (It's 22" square, so perfect for sofa, kid's bed, outdoor covered seating, or as a FLOOR PILLOW!)
Oversized Square Stripe Pillow with Ruffle Trim Blue/White - Threshold™
I just ordered this to put on my back porch for some color (and balance next to a window that's off-center). It's beautiful! I love that it's ok to place outdoors with all-weather canvas and treated wood frame!
Emma Caroline 'By the Bay II' Outdoor All-Weather Wall Decor - 24x32"
I need these. Like I need coffee in the morning, or my dog needs treats. These would look sooo good on my brass console table…adding to Cart. 🥹
Coastal Rattan/Iron Scalloped Buffet Lamps Set
Yes, please! I need this to carry my books to the beach! 🥹 I'll have the blue/green stripe with a monogram please.
Cabana Stripe Terry Beach Tote
Similar to eNewton, but oh-so-cute, and only $16.50 right now! Precious! All four come as a set. 💕
Beaded Bracelets Set For Women
Adam Grant is a FAVORITE of mine-especially in his sweet little chunks of pure WISDOM on Facebook, and I can't WAIT to read his book! Do you know he's a professor at Wharton?!
Hidden Potential - by Adam Grant (Hardcover)
You need a shell bowl in your future! This is melamine, BPA-free, so you can use with confidence…no breaking, dishwasher-safe, and full of style! (My huge Pottery Barn shell broke years ago, and this is a great replacement!)
Coastal 39 fl oz Shell Serving Platter - Threshold™
I JUST ordered this! I can lay out on my patio (I cover my chairs with cushions with towels because south = pollen! even after powerwashing!), or use it at the lake or beach! I like a lot of room to put my books, bag, shoes…or share some room with my kids, haha!
2 Person Beach Blanket Blue - Sun Squad™
Looks sooo good! I love a mystery wrapped up in a love story, and this might be an amazing summer read! Check out this one from Barnes & Noble with a special colorway and gingham endpapers! 😍
Great Big Beautiful Life (B&N Exclusive Edition)|BN Exclusive
THIS cutie is going on my side porch in my iron chair! Who could resist the blue and white design and embroidered SCALLOPED edges? 😍
Scalloped Outdoor Lumbar Pillow Blue Stripe 20"x12"
You need a cute vase to bring in your hydrangeas this summer!
Ceramic Ruffle Vase
Lysa TerKeurst is one of my favorite authors. She speaks with such biblical wisdom-I love that she's well-read, a real person, and seriously seeks God. I am finishing a book by her now (I Want to Trust You, But I Don't), and this is my next devotional!
You're Going to Make It - by Lysa TerKeurst (Hardcover)
Ok, you want this in French Blue. I have it. It's gorgeous!!
Gingham Large Vase/ Utensil Holder
I am ordering this, it's beautiful! It's from Pottery Barn, 18" tall, and it'll look perfect next to my kitchen sink! I've had a converted silver teapot with lampshade for 10+ years, but I'm tired of polishing it.
Langley Petite Ceramic Table Lamp (18")
Isn't this beautiful? Reminds me of Charleston, St. Augustine, or Seaside! Sooo beautiful…and PiNK! 💕
Down the Avenue Colorful Coastal Wall Art, 16" x 24"
I need to stop folding down a page corner when I'm falling asleep-and this is cute enough to use! 😅😂😍
Leather 2pk Magnetic Bookmarks- Hot & Light Pink
Honestly, remember your lips! Wear sunblock!!
Sun Bum Lip Balm - SPF 30 - 0.15oz
I must tell you…my daughter actually gave me this book. I didn't get into it until probably the third chapter, but it's AMAZING. I learned so much about caring for MYSELF. Check it out…and take care of your heart, soul, and body!
Tara Schuster: Buy Yourself the Lilies & Other Rituals to Fix Your Life
It just smells soooo good, it makes me want to actually wear it!!
