i spy: you make me feel like a natural woman.

in the immortal words of miss aretha franklin, “you make me feel, you make me feel, you make me feel like a natural woman”. i guess that’s what i’m in the mood for today. it’s kinda chilly, and i’m all curled up on the couch, after running around driftwood forts and playing fetch with lucy on the beach this morning. such a naturally inspiring place the beach can be….it got me thinking. so today, i spy: you make me feel like a natural woman.

I just found a kaleidoscope like that recently. It’s awesome. Love all the photo’s. I’m saving money for one of those rugs. I love them.
Mmm. That bed in the second photo looks divine. I’d love to DIY something like that one day.
Those vintage bulbs are fantastic! I want one in my closet…it would be so sparkly in there!
Oh, what an inspiring post… and I now have a great song playing in my head! Thank you!

This is very much a look I’m attracted too. I have a pair of nesting tables made with natural wood (a bit beat up, they were on sale) and weathered iron. I’m not sure who made them (if I were home I would let you know). I love them.
