Before I share my Wins of the Week, I want to let you know that I will keep my ramble short and sweet.

Oh look…… I rhymed.

Also, no promises for next week.

Anyway, David and I are about to head out to see what we can snag at Fredericksburg Trade Days that we really don’t need.

So, without further ado……

Decor Weekly Win

The Holidays will be here before you can even remember where you hid your favorite Christmas mugs.

That’s why I am thrilled to have found a company that sells the most gorgeous real florals that are perfect for the Holiday season.

In fact, here are a few I have been trying to choose from.

Ultimately, I selected two of the hydrangea and artichoke wreaths for my front doors. But, I also have places in mind for my other two favorites.

Check out these gorgeous garlands.

You really need to place an order before they sell out because I bought it all.

A Little Bling Weekly Win

I want to introduce you to Paula. She is the sweetest Texas girl, and I have known her for YEARS.

We met across the net on the court way back during my singles playing Dallas Tennis days.

Paula is the owner of My Team Jewelry. She creates custom pieces so that you can cheer on your favorite athlete and/or team (cheerleading, basketball, football, baseball, dance, track, tennis……) in total style.

In fact, Paula made me these Swarovski crystal earrings in purple and gold so that I can celebrate my Alma Mater (LSU) in style!

If y’all have followed me for any length of time, y’all know my youngest is also having the time of her freshman life living it up at LSU in Baton Rouge.

Her mother is not handling this well.

In fact, you may find her mother flipping through pictures, between sniffles and sips of wine, reminiscing about the good old days. For example…..

Back on topic………

Not only is Paula’s jewelry well made and adorable, it is affordable.

Paula also works with high schools and organizations all over the country to help them fundraise.

Basically, the you decide on the product you want to sell.

Paula makes the pieces.

The school (organization) receives a portion of the profits from the sales.

You can contact Paula here for more information.

GEAUX TIGERS!

Plant Win of the Week

Actually, this is not about a specific plant.

It is about a company that specifically sells unusual plants.

This company is my secret go-to source any time I am looking for something unusual and hard to find for my landscaping projects.

So, techically……it’s not my secret anymore. Therefore, it is your WIN.

Annie’s Annuals is a nursery located in California. She sells more than annuals.

Since we can’t all head to California to visit her nursery, her website is a dream come true.

When you sign in to the account you create, you can put plants on your wishlist.

When those plants become available, Annie sends you an email to tell you that YOU BETTER ORDER RIGHT NOW OR YOU WILL BE SAD THAT IT SOLD OUT. AND, P. S., IT IS DISCONTINUED FOREVER.

She also sends out a free yearly color catalog so that you can drool for months until it is time to place your order.

That’s A Wrap

That’s it from me on my Wins of the Week. I am off to find some goodies at Fredericksburg Trade Days.

David just let me know he cleaned out the back of his truck.

“Darlin, I might as well be prepared. I am sure you are going to see something you just can NOT live without.”

I wonder what he ever even means by that. 🙂

P. S. S. I almost forgot, below is my early fall tablescape using materials I already had on had. A simple hydrangea arrangement, some deer sheds, and a air plant terrarium complete this look. This is also the exact reason why you need to have at least one hydrangea bush in your yard.

I have linked similar sources so that you can re-create this look for yourselves. I can’t find the china. It has been discontinued for years. I can’t even find a close relative…..
