Hello Friends! It’s always fun when a special occasion falls on a Wednesday and I get to incorporate it into an article. Today is the anniversary of my birth and I thought it’d be fun and a bit cheeky to share what I bought myself. Ha!

I saw these needlework pillows and thought they were just the right sizing. I liked having a pair and the gold hue and pop of red just works and you know my love of a good mix friends!

Upon receipt of this book I tallied how many titles about Jackie I own = 8! This is a wonderful addition filled with photos I’d never seen. Did you notice Mrs. Kennedy holding a cigarette - very few images of her with one. But, she was like many of her generation a smoker.

In last week’s article I shared the Patio redo. I am really enjoying these Resin Wicker pieces. They work well with the existing umbrellas, glider and rockers. This summer I’m determined to enjoy the patio.

**A thrifted set of vintage Needlepoint Chinoserie Pillows from** **The Pink Clutch, A new Jackie Kennedy Book and Costway 4PCS Patio Rattan Furniture Set.**

The one thing I asked my husband for this year was to please have the headlamps on my 12yr SUV professionally cleaned. Not only did they look bad in their yellowed state; the headlight strength was being depleted. Voila’ they look brand new!

I’m off to enjoy the day. We’re seeing the new Mission Impossible film Dead Reckoning part one which opens today. Dinner may consist of a big bucket of popcorn! I can’t wait.

Thanks as always for being here your support means so much!

Til next time see you over on the Gram! xoxo

This week I’m sharing a field trip. Last month I visited Susan Brierly Bush at her Big Green Barn located in Morris County, NJ. She holds a few Barn Sales a Year.

There were so many treasures friends!

These bowls with the yellow flower are vintage Blue Ridge. Aren’t they sweet? I have a few pieces of the Cherry design that belonged to my mother Rita.

So many amazing lamps.

Art, Decorative pieces, Furniture, Lamps, Pillows - all wonderfully curated!

After finding a few treasures Kristin and I popped over to The Black Horse Pub.

Kristin found incredible pillows and art. The crewel embroidery is brilliant!
I adore my little white and blue man and this Williamsburg art is so cool.

Susan recently opened a shop Big Green Barn - Harding (already nicknamed by shoppers - Little Green Barn) along the charming Country Mile in Harding, NJ at 912 Mt. Kemble Ave. (same as Route 202 between Morristown and Bernardsville.) Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday from 10-4pm. Now we don’t have to wait for a few sales a year we can shop anytime! Yippy!
