I was browsing Decor8 blog this morning and came across her link to Amanda Nisbet Designs ...I am in love with her color choices! beautiful beautiful colors! Erika and I are always scoping out new boutiques and ideas for her "future" shop... this is good inspiration! oh and yeah they are also sandia colors ;)

I am so in love with Papaya art and all of her designs. Her colors, compositions and imagery are just papayalicious! I may have to splurge on this one and some of her stationary.... yummy!

Recently came across this beautiful necklace created by Wink Artisans of San Diego. You can check out more of their colorful designs in their etsy shop . Some of their designs will also be on display at the Gems and Minerals Exhibit at the The San Diego County Fair which runs through July 5th at the Del Mar Fair Grounds.

Nothing like being a kid, playing on a swing and feeling the wind in your hair ! and enjoying the sun with family!
