{friday favors} seafoam + yellow

Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii Friends!
 I’m so excited…can’t you tell?  Yes, I’m excited about the weekend but I’m also thrilled to be able to finally share with you P&P’s new look.  The mastermind behind the design was no other than the super talented Kate of {Ruby & Willow}, she was such a doll and I’m so happy on how it all turned out.
 Today's post is all about my favorite things {I'm channeling Oprah over here}. I scoured the web, blogs and pinterest and found a few things inspired by P&P’s new color palette. 

1. cake {hello naomi} 2. vintage rotary phone {anthropologie} 3. candy gem bracelet {in honor of design}
4. floral gift tags {eat drink chic} 5. iron chair {anthropologie} 6. diana camera {urban outfitters}
7. whimsical button boutonniere {real simple} 8. {stamp rugs}

{p.s} 
Victoria of {A Subtle Revelry} was also kind enough to mention Postcards & Pretties in her new magazine {Styled} . It's chock full of diy pretties and inspiration for spring celebrations. It's a must read this weekend. 
and while your at it, make sure to also check out these ezines that were launched this week too!

Have a wonderful weekend friends!!
