~Northwest Flower & Garden Show & Astoria and Simple & Sweet Fridays #209~

As I promised last week,
I wanted to share photos of our trip to 
  the
Northwest Flower & Garden Show
in Seattle, Washington. 
It was a lot of fun.



One of my favorite vendors,
Christianson's Nursery & Greenhouses.


A outdoor octopus shaped shower made out of shells.


Loved this whimsical playhouse.

~Inspiring Displays~

Love the Mosiac Mailbox!
A special sealed card!
Even in the rain,
 downtown Seattle is just beautiful! 
We left Washington and drove to Astoria for the night.
It is a very beautiful port city.

We stayed at the Cannery Pier Hotel & Spa.
We had a gorgeous view of the Astoria-Megler Bridge 
outside our window.


That night our daughter, Katie and her boyfriend, Harry went to dinner in an old car that taxied us to a restaurant.
Fun dinner together!
The next day we drove around the city.






 It was a wonderful trip 
to the beautiful Northwest.
Next week I'll share with you
 an Easter project with these beads!

~Create, Cook and Garden and Simple & Sweet Fridays #155~

I love creating new projects.
We saw this idea using scrapbook paper to make a lampshade.
All you need is a wine glass, scissors, double sided tape, 
scrapbook paper, template and LED tea light.
We found the idea from Good Housekeeping.
I have lots of craft paper and found
 this romantic paper for the project.
You can make a romantic setting, 
just by using paper and a wine glass. 
I had some pretty rose scrapbook paper.
Another idea for a charming tablescape.
Carly made some rosemary focaccia last night 
from a recipe she found online.
It was a delicious!
Stan and I just got back from a road trip in the Pacific Northwest.
We found lots of wonderful shops in
Aberdeen, Quinault, Seabrook, Lake Townsend, Whidbey Island, Mt. Vernon and Seattle.
I'll share photos of the trip next week.
Can't wait to go back,
it was just BEAUTIFUL!!
I wanted to share photos of our garden this week.
~Sunset in San Diego~


Hope you all had a wonderful Valentine's Day!
Looking forward to more inspiring ideas this week!
