Monday sunshine







Sending you warm sunshine this Monday morning! I hope you guys had a wonderful weekend--tell me about it if you have a moment or two, I would love to hear. These are images from Ellen McDermott. I thought you'd like her use of color!

XOXO

jewels, you always pick such awesome pictures! i love the colours of them all... not to mention that i love the brain fish. i think they're fantastic.. i've been actually thinking of buying one and making it my little friend. prolly name him albert. (last name: einstein.)

i think the name suits him, no? ;)

my weekend was awesome. got a chance to go up north to visit my dad & soak up the gorgeous fall colours, then celebrated my mom's birthday over a smorgasboard of appetizers and drinks, and then to top it all off, had thanksgiving dinner yesterday. delish.

today's a day for digesting and relaxing - the icing on the cake is that it's sunny and *warm* out today!

I had a short weekend, how about you my dear?!

Cindy said...

Karen said...

These are such sunny images! Beautiful. I had a very relaxing weekend...got outside a bit, watched a lot of football. Very nice and fall-ish :)

Can I just move right in to that space or even that fishbowl for that matter. I love the color, just the right amount. Like a slice of lemon. Fresh and zesty!

I certainly do love her use of colour! Glad you had a good weekend, mine was spent panicking that we hadn't organised a birthday party for a certain little girl but it is all sorted now

wonderful use of color! great photos and a nice way to start of the week :) PS - glad you liked that quote - it cracked me up too!

Mmmmm. That room with the orange (?) wall just makes me happy. It's so warm and inviting. My weekend was great - full of cooking and napping and even some sewing. And the air is finally crisp!

Hey!! Gorgeous photos and color matches too. ;)

I had a beautiful weekend. It rained all weekend long and I loved every minute of it. Saturday was spent at the Farmers Market and Sunday was a "lazy" Sunday...we relaxed, did chores, and I made meatloaf for the first time. Exciting, I know--Ha...it was very good though. Oh, and we had the windows open the whole time so we could listen to the rain.. It was so nice. :)

Ahh I love that use of colors! Yellow is one of my favorites. I absolutely adore that yellow table!

Sara Christine said...

What pretty pairings of images. I like how the colors play off each other. And what gorgeous interiors, of course!

What a warm weekend, definitely fun to be outside! Went for a ride and got covered by box elder bug and asian beetles! Yesterday was truly blustery and the leaves looked like big confetti blowing down the streets!

The fish look like little french artists with orange berets!

I had a very windy weekend, but fun nonetheless. Thank you for this bright little spot of sunshine today...just what I needed to get my week going. I love the little birdie.

I love the color matching of these photos. They are just great! My weekend was spent setting up my blog posts for the week. That sounds really lame but I considered today my Saturday and I spent the day with my fiance at the beach and he got his first wave! I am so happy for him. Hope you had a lovely weekend!
