Hello. So happy you are here for Cindy’s, Annie’s, and my five favorite finds this week. All three of us look forward to it!
So let’s get started…
Five New Fun Finds
1. Grilled Peaches With Goat Cheese and Basil
It’s Peach Season…and I love it. I made this recipe last night but used basil instead of thyme.
2. Fun Accounts on Instagram That Aren’t Design Related
The Rock
Ok, so I’m a big fan. He doesn’t take himself seriously…
and I love his sweet interactions with his little daughters. He sells his tequila a lot, too…ha! I may buy some.
Dude With A Sign
because well…
Dolly Parton
3. Favorites on Sale At Serena and Lily
The Costa X-base Rope Bench like mine is on sale. (post date: well it WAS on sale yesterday–sorry). I move these around and lately I love using one with a dinner tray on top (guilty as charged) while watching one of our favorite television shows (see the last fav. five post 🙂
And this Paige pillow cover is marked way down…comes in smoke, too. I’ve felt it in person and it’s soft.
4. Fully Updated Bar/Counter Stool Post
If you are looking to update your kitchen with some new stools…this could save you some time as I just completely updated this post with lots of good looking ones! All different price ranges.
And there are more stools without backs or low backs with all the links.
5. French Flea Market Style
We can’t go to France right now so I like to check things out at Elsie Green over in the East Bay (the bowl that the peaches are in in the first photo is from there). Here is a video that I took of the place recently…
Now head on over to see what my buddies have for you…I’m on my way!
Most Lovely Things
Rough Luxe
Hello,
I came across a photo on Pinterest showing a fall mantel and I love the black candlesticks. Any suggestions on where to look for a pair? Thank you
Try here: https://classiccasualhome.com/liketoknowit/ and sometimes Target online. I got them at World Market but they are sold out.
Mary Ann,
These are such fun. Thanks to you, Cindy and Annie for giving me something to look forward to each Friday.
xo,
Karen
Hi Mary Ann,
I’ve come to depend on you for new and tasty recipes! I will use up my ripe peaches on the grill for dinner tonight!
Lots of fun stuff to explore here, I look forward to shopping at Elsie Green in person one of these days!
Hope you have a good week,
XO Heidi
Lovely list to check out. I have bar stools from Circa Loft without backs. They are the favorite perches of my grands when they come to visit! We hang outi n the kitchen a lot.
Wowsa…you outdid yourself! Copied the yummy recipe, wished I had a bar to put a couple of those amazing stools up to, loved the sign guy ( need more humans like this to make us smile while informing) and who doesn’t love The Rock!! He is one of my favorites…and I’m proud of it😁. Thank you for a fun read on a beautiful Sunday!
Love your style and always enjoy your posts. I’ve been eyeing those Serena and Lily stools for awhile, but doesn’t look like they’re on sale..I hope I’m wrong! Am I?
OH no, Kathleen…they were yesterday. Email me and I might be able to order them for you with my trade discount of 20% off.
How wonderful that you have finally gotten your new dining room look that you’ve been wanting to do for so long. And the fact that you were able to get this done in these trying times is remarkable! I do hope you gave a big fat tip to the person who made that vase leak on your former table. (LOL!!!) Happy anniversary. Our 45th is in August…and I’m sure the “local getaway” will be dining in our little library once I get all of the crap stored in there during THE PROJECT finally cleared away. That room has been “in storage” for several years!
I must have cracked the jug :/ or the waterproofing wore off.
I have got to follow the dude with a sign, right up my alley. Grilled peaches with goat cheese are a fave. Tonight we are doing a grilled peach salad. Those stools look so fabulous in your living room. They are two of my all time favorites from Serena and Lily. I just love these posts they are so much fun!!
I look forward to these fun Sunday posts! Great variety!
Mary Ann, where is the white lamp in your LR from? It’s so pretty.
Thanks
Thanks, Kathy. The white lamp is from West Elm a few years ago. I don’t think they have it anymore. I put a different shade on it from an old lamp. Sorry.
Oh my gosh, I love The Rock too. Didn’t know he had a tequila. I’ll get right on the research. Have you seen his HBO series, Ballers? Great TV. Wish I had a bar so I could add bar stools … love these options. No surprise, 11 and 12 are my favorites. xo
Yes… we were watching Ballers. I think there must be another season now.
I am not looking for new bar stools, but clicked on the one I like best just for fun, #2. Of course I probably picked the most expensive one, over $1,000. Uh, I guess not. LOL.
Hahaha! Naturally. There are some from Target too.
Mary Ann! Love all your favorite finds! I can’t wait to visit Elsie Green with you one day! I love that new bowl filled with peaches! It looks perfectly summery in your beautiful new dining room!
Thanks, Annie! Off to read your post.
