Pretties for Valentine's Day

 Happy Valentine's Day, blog friends! I hope that today you are surrounded by beautiful flowers, sweet treats and lovely sentiments.

I picked up a bouquet of precious pink ranunculus from Trader Joe's this weekend, and couldn't help but share them. The vase is a Votivo candleholder that was too special to discard once the candle was finished.

Speaking of lovelies, I met up with the uber-awesome Naomi of Design Manifest to hunt down some mid-century pieces at a warehouse in the Fishtown area of Philly. Naomi is a doll and has a real talent for design, folks. If you're not already reading her blog, get on it...like now.

Want to see what I walked away with?

A vintage Hickory chair (reupholstery and new legs needed) and a Joan Miro lithograph! 

Big things in store for the chair, my dears...

Happy Valentine's Day, friends!
Love,
Ashley

P.S. Photographer and wedding cake are decided...we are thrilled!
