ANGELS DO SLEEP

For those of you that don't know, this is the love of my life. I took this photo in front of my stoop where Gretta loves to sunbathe. For once she looks peaceful and angelic as this is a reflection of her personality.
My family members would describe her otherwise (she is commonly referred to as "the devil"). I just wanted to share a view of how I see her......She's cute, right?

LOVE, NOSTALGIC, WHIMSEY.......BRILLIANT!

I have passed many beautiful suitcases in second hand or antique shops and thought to myself, I love it, but what do I do with an old suitcase? I have seen them used as storage containers, but I have never seen them transformed into animal beds, well, until now.
As a avid animal lover, I can appreciate taking something such as a typical dog bed and re-creating it into a piece of art. Love, Nostalgic, Whimsy re-creates vintage suitcases into one of a kind usable piece of art for both you and pet to enjoy.

GOSSIP IN THE GRAIN

I am always looking for that perfect album to play while cooking in the kitchen, when friends gather, takeing a relaxing shower, or simply driving on a rainy day. Recommendation: Singer/ Songwriter Ray LaMontagne's album "Gossip in The Grain". This is a must on your playlist. I fell in love with this album at first listen, and you will too. While listening to his songs, a sense of calm rushes through you like sipping a glass of wine on a late summers night.

Favorite Tune: Empty (Live Version) only on iTunes
