kate spade christmas with a little martha love

if i was hosting christmas this year, i would definitely be using one of these kate spade dinnerware sets from macy’s.
simple, classic, and beautiful.

1. 2. 3. 4
did you know macy’s sells kate spade?
$139.00 for a 5 piece dinner set, perfect.
and thanks to martha, macy’s also has the perfect santa cookie plate.

a set of 4 for $17.99!

and at checkout don’t forget to use the promo code GIFTS and get an extra 20% off and free shipping.

gotta love macy’s!

bamboo mirror

i am crazy about this natural stained bamboo mirror.
paired with the modern white console and black traditional lamps, perfection.

i found this mirror at deseret industries tonight.
$5.00, it jumped in my cart.
what a deal, i can’t wait to find the perfect place for it!


what’s better than finding a great deal at a thrift store?

a 2 year old wearing skinny jeans and leopard flats, of course.
