Firstly I wanted to thankyou all for your lovely comments on my thrift finds. Seems like you all agree with me that those crystal knobs were the find of the year.
I purchased a new sofa through the week, I mean how could I pass is up. When I say new I mean second hand but new for me. It was only purchased six months ago and has hardly been used. Best part was she had a matching navy blue one as well so that came home with me too. Lovely blue and white striped slipcovers create such a relaxed look. I don’t know if this one is a keeper or not but for now it’s very comfortable and looks lovely in my lounge.
If you haven’t been over to Laura from http://summerhouselc.blogspot.com/ you really need to. Laura is a very kind hearted girl and one very clever one at that. She makes these adorable cushions and I think it goes lovely on this new sofa. Check out Laura’s etsy shops if haven’t already. Think I need to purchase some more of these beauties.
I was the lucky winner of this fabulous vintage suitcase from Katherine. I had every intention of painting it white but couldn’t bring myself to do it. Love the initials on the top of the case, ideal for magazines, vintage linens and loads more.
It has been a beautiful weekend weather wise and I hope you all did something special. My parents took my kids out for the day so my husband and I actually got to go out for lunch together just the two of us. Lunch at the surf club overlooking the ocean it was just beautiful.

The sofa and cushions are great! I do like the blue and white. Very cozy!
I had a suitcase just like that growing up, then I thought it was ugly. Now, I wish I still had it!
Have a lovely day!
