European Flair

Hello everyone!

First let me thank everyone who visited my guest post on my sister's blog last weekend!  All of your kind comments were so nice to read.  I think it will be a fun series to follow in the future, won't it?

Have you been watching the Olympics?  We sure have and it has been a lot of fun to cheer for team USA!  Of course, with it being held in London,  I've been spying a lot of union jack patterns everywhere.  I just added a touch of it to my sitting room. 

Isn't it cute?!  It's my first piece of union jack trend in my house.  Ha!  It's a burlap bench from Target that was on clearance.  I couldn't resist.

You may recall I have one similar to it with writing on it.  That moved to the kitchen, which I will show in another post soon.

For now, this little bit of union jack brings some European flair to this room.

 

I also found a couple of down filled french script pillows that I loved. I added them to these chairs in here.

Here is a close-up.

Tomorrow, is open house at my youngest son's school.  We'll get a chance to find his classroom and meet his teacher.  He will be starting 5th grade.

  I can't believe that school starts back this Thursday! (I think it is strange to start on a Thursday anyway.)   Where did the summer go?  It went by too fast.    So, you know what I'll be doing this week.......school meeting, school supply shopping, and lunch packing.  Wish me luck!

Thanks for stopping by!
