Monday Musts

So much to do and so little time. I am trying to get the Easter baskets filled before this weekend and while I would love that Easter Bunny to hop on over and get it done for me, I have a feeling this will not be a group effort. I have been doing some design work for a client and while I was working I came across some great “Monday Musts” pieces that would be perfect for this spring.

Hostess Gifts:

Do you need a hostess gift for a spring party or Easter celebration? Wrap the Carrot & Lime Hand Soap from World Market, in clear cello wrap with a fun green or orange bow and it’s a perfect gift! The Alabaster Eggs from Williams-Sonoma are a fabulous gift to give too. Give just one egg or a few to your hostess inside a bag filled with shredded colored raffia.

What to Wear:

I am absolutely in love with the Linen Blend Camisole Top from Nordstrom. Two great things, it is on sale right now and it comes in more than one color. If you are looking for a perfect option to pair with white denim or shorts, check out this adorable top. The only type of purse I can use these days with a toddler, is a cross body bag. Check out The Simple Crossbody Bag by Madewell. It is beautiful in color, the leather is soft and it is ideal for holding a wallet, keys and lipgloss. Best part, the pink is on sale!

Styling your Home:

If you want a beach type look for your couch or home the Woven Stripe Lumbar Throw Pillow from Target will style well on an accent chair or intermixed with many throw pillows on your couch. I love the idea of mixing stripes with patterns, solids or florals. The wall basket or Seagrass Fiber Round Wall Art from Target, will look fabulous hanging on a narrow wall all alone or with a group of three baskets if hanging on a larger wall. When adding accents to coffee tables or book shelves the Wooden Bead Garland from Pottery Barn will look fabulous draped over books or hanging off of a larger shallow bowl.

I hope you enjoyed this Monday Musts!
