My Home in Summer - Show and Tell Friday






Welcome to Show and Tell Friday!  I almost named this post "My Summer Home" but that made it sound like I had a different home that I went to for the summer and that is not the case (one can only dream) so I changed the words around and named it "My Home in Summer"

A sneak peek...






I just wrote my post for Show and Tell Friday and I have lots of photos to share with you.  I thought I would share a sneak peek tonight.  Actually it's more like an overview than a sneak peek.

Happy 4th of July to all my American friends! ...and welcome to Show and Tell Friday!






I found this moss lined basket at a nursery (Summer Winds) a couple weeks ago and put an assortment of plants in it.  I think it will get more beautiful as the plants grow.

Allen's Home in Hawaii - Show and Tell Friday






Welcome to Show and Tell Friday!  



I know almost everyone that visits my blog is into Shabby Chic style but this week I'm sharing my boyfriend's second home in Hawaii which is not Shabby Chic but it's an amazingly beautiful place that I think anyone could appreciate!  I've been here twice since March and I've shared some of it previously but today I thought I would share some more of it.
