Viva Terra

If you are in search of a gift for yourself or someone else with ecological sensitivities, then Viva Terra is the site for you!

Viva Terra offers an environmentally conscious product line ranging from furniture to jewelry.  Their products are not only unique but they are green and earth friendly - does it get any better than that?

From the hand carved acacia olive boats, to the recycled sea glass plates - every host will enjoy a gift knowing it is earth friendly!

The Celebration triangle shape plates are so unique in shape.  Viva Terra's site says it all, "Celebration's saturated, rich hues evoke a sunset, while their uncommon shapes suggest glass rubbed smooth by ebbing tides."

Talk about a visual - does it get any more relaxing than that?

Viva Terra also offers herb wreaths that not only look beautiful on your door, the herbs will also be perfect in your favorite dish!  Just clip them off at will - adding a wonderful flavor to whatever you are making!

The Olive Bay Wreath

Organic Culinary Herb Wreath

I also love, love, love the chalk boards!  From the slate cheese board . . .

To the Vintage Chalk Board . . .  The Vintage Chalk Board is recycled from old schoolrooms and affixed with a recycled wood chalk holder ledge.  Is there any better way to leave a loving note to your family?  There is just something about a hand written note on a chalk board that I absolutely love!

Viva Terra also offers several unique pieces for your upcoming holiday decorating - from the rustic brass replica Buddhist Monastery temple bell to the silver Milk Bone ornament for your favorite four-footed friend, Viva Terra can help make your home holiday ready in a green way!

Pottery Barn

Pottery Barn is a staple favorite of mine - when I have the time, one of my favorite things to do is to go in to our local store, walk around and absorb all they have to offer. 

Pottery Barn has so many great things!  It is like going to a favorite hotel - when you arrive back home, you want to go back to the hotel! 

Their furniture is so comfortable and inviting and all of the accessories are pefectly displayed.  Their displays make you want to grab the nearest salesperson and say, "I'll take the whole thing - just as it is!"  And then, the salesperson walks up to you, startles you from your daydream and in your startled moment you say, "Oh, I'm fine, just looking" . . .

If you can't find the time to visit your local store, I'll give you a little teaser until you can make the time!

Let's start at the front door, welcome to the world of Pottery Barn . . .

Maybe you could hang up your coat and stay awhile?

Get cozy and relax . . .

We'll have a few drinks and dinner . . .

It's always great to entertain, but after they go home, my favorite time is to relax and take a bath!

You'd better get some rest and relaxation, don't forget the Holidays will soon be upon us and there will be stockings to fill!

Pottery Barn also offers a gift registry so don't forget to check it out for the next wedding you attend!
