Beautiful Baubles

Last week I wrapped up the final day of the photography class I had been taking. One of our assignments was to take photos outside in downtown Plymouth, MI.  I completed that assignment then popped inside to a favorite shop, Home Sweet Home and snapped a few pictures…...


Home Sweet Home has beautiful displays throughout the store but I focused on all the beautiful baubles. Lots of pearls, crystals, gold, silver and charms adorn both necklaces and bracelets.




I loved the vintage style mannequins the jewelry was displayed on.






I could have taken home boat loads of these jewels but I exercised self-control!  If you ever find yourself in Plymouth, Michigan a stop at Home Sweet Home is a must.


I found my photography class very beneficial, I've learned to look at what I was photographing a little differently, with a more careful eye. I still need a better understanding of F-stops and when to use various settings but at least I have a starting point. 


A big thank you to Very Merry Vintage Style for featuring our post from last week about pot holders. Very Merry Vintage Style is a wonderful blog that hosts a Share the Love Wednesday Link Party. If you missed our post click here, Princess and the Pea or Pot Holders?


Andrea my blogging partner-daughter had a big weekend, she successfully completed a half marathon which is a little over 13 miles!!!!! She just started running about six months ago and set her sights on entering a marathon. I'm dazzled and so proud of her accomplishment, congratulations!!!!!

Sweet Valentines Shopping

Over the weekend we took an outing and went to the quaint town of Plymouth, MI. It was cold and in the 20's but it was bright and sunny, we walked around doing a little browsing. Two stores, Home Sweet Home and Haven had beautiful valentine vignettes, here are a few of the pictures that I snapped:



A Valentine's Day tree.




A sweet little top-hatted angel snowman baring a heart, that is quite a combination!




I'm feeling inspired to do a little decorating for Valentine's Day. How about you? Vintage postcards, heart garland or hand crafted cards? I'd love the hear how you are decorating for Valentine's Day.
