So with the end of summer nearing, (and since these pics have been on my laptop since March) I figured I would share this summery looking post…

What Is It?

Well…I think it should be this:

I have had this for about a year now, and I think its a glorious addition to TTC.

I know you’re just chomping at the bit to hear the story. Do I even need to tell you where it takes place? Ok, I will, Homegoods, of course! It was at the very end of an unsuccessful trip. I saw this raggedy bag rolled up on the bottom shelf with some beautiful, WHITE beach pebbles peeking out. So, naturally, I had to investigate. I hefted that 25 pound bag onto the floor and unrolled the thing. The most beautiful, magical carpet of sorts was in front of my eyes, and I just knew it was coming home with me, I just didn’t know what to do with it, but for $30.00 I knew I could come up with something 🙂

I think maybe it could be a table runner? Later down the road, I plan on using it for just that, but for now, it fits p-e-r-f-e-c-t-l-y on the entertainment unit/bookshelf. Can’t you just imagine it on an old, rustic farmhouse table in the summer?

Its hard to see, but I did a little photoshop magic…blends right in!! Have you found anything interesting and made up a new use for it?
