I don't own many pretties to go around my neck, 

{I do have this one from The Vintage Pearl & this one from Lisa Leonard,

I think it's time to share!

{wednesday wishlist}

I guest-posted this wishlist at Allora Handmade last week - if you missed it, enjoy!

*****

Hello! It's Jacky from The Sweetest Petunia, and I'm so excited to be here today. :)

{hey, it's me!}

It seems like lovely things are always catching my eye.

I had a terrible time paring down my favorites to my absolute favorites!

But here they are, the top 5 pretties on my wishlist right now...

{1} You're the Cream in my Coffee necklace from Lisa Leonard Designs

This necklace has been at the top of my list for quite awhile now - I'd choose the skinny tag with "happy" stamped on it.

{2} Westbury Self Inking Custom Stamp from NoteTrunk

Love this! I just can't decide if I'd personalize it with my address or my shop info...

{3} Mr. Darcy Proposal Mug from Brookish

Yes, I adore Austen & Mr. Darcy. This mug would be perfect for my morning coffee!

{4} Black Plum Lip Balm from Flourish

Doesn't this look yummy?!

{5} Jane Austen Silhouette top from DearLillie

I think I almost died when I saw this. And then I told my sweetheart all about it & sent him the link...

because I'd really love to make it mine!

What loveliness have you added to your wishlist lately?

Happy Wednesday!

{wishlist.4}

Since I've already declared my love for Jane Austen,

I may as well admit that I have a thing for coffee mugs, too.

from Brookish

And when you put both together?

It makes me pretty happy...

{no enjoyment like reading}

Being a lover of literature & Jane Austen,

I {almost} died when I saw this:

from Dear Lillie

I think I need it.

It would be the perfect gift...

{wishlist.3}

Lindsey at The Pleated Poppy just introduced these lovely little coin pouches, and I adore them!

The pocket feature is perfect. I'd love to own this turquoise+mustard+grey version.

Of course, it's sold out already, but hopefully Lindsey will make more soon!

{color love} will return next Friday.

{skirt crush}

Browsing DownEast Basics the other day, these two lovelies caught my eye...

Whimsy & Perfect Picture

I wear skirts every day...these would be a perfect addition to my wardrobe!

{wishlist.2}

This lovely necklace from Lisa Leonard is on the top of my wishlist right now.

I'd get the rectangle tag with 'happy' stamped on it.

Because whenever I see this necklace, I think of the times that I share coffee with my sweetheart.

Which makes me very happy.

{ I Wish... }

print by Julie Davis Photo

...that I could magically become an organized person. Because I really do want to be one.

...that I could see my sweetheart more than a couple times a week.

...that I had $100 to spend on Etsy right now. :)

...that somehow, someway, playing Brahams' Waltz in A flat will become easier.

{and yes, practice makes perfect, but I'm not very patient}

...that I had some coffee + creamer. Somehow we are out of both at the same time. Yikes.

...that I could sew a skirt without totally ruining it. Because I did that last week.

...that I could be confident about me.

What do you wish?

{Heartstrings}

Heartstrings

I'm in love with this necklace from Lisa Leonard.

I love the hearts.

I love the sentimental quality.

I love the customization.

*sigh*
