turtle, turtle

Hello abode lovers and happy hump day! I am so happy that it's Wednesday, I get to go over to my mom and dad's house tonight and help watch my sister's precious babies. I'm sure I'll be exhausted after a few hours... I don't know how anyone takes care of a 2 year old and an almost 6 month old!?! <a href="http://abodelove.blogspot.com/2011/08/raleigh-olivers-friends-of-forest.html">Anyone remember Raleigh and his precious friends of the forest nursery? </a> and <a href="http://abodelove.blogspot.com/2011/09/youll-never-freaking-believe-it.html">Anyone remember this fiasco with the nursery?</a><br /><br />Anyway, back to the main topic of the day: turtles. I have loved turtles for years now. I am a Delta Zeta alumni <i>(yes, I was a sorority gal) </i>and our mascot was a turtle. Cute, right? Well, after becoming a DZ I was on the lookout for anything and everything turtle... I was 18, can you blame me? Well now, one of my little sisters is also a DZ so I find myself buying her turtle things for every holiday possible (I snagged the <i>MOST</i> precious oversized turtle studs from Anthropologie last year). SO, has anyone else noticed the turtle explosion that's beginning? I am obsessed. Check out all of the turtle things I've been pinning lately...<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://pinterest.com/abodelove/turtle-turtle/">Here is my pinterest board for all of the sources</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">These lamps are awesome. They're expensive, so I'm hoping that someone will knock them off sooner or later so that I can snag one or two. I personally like the natural looking shell, but they're both pretty interesting! <a href="http://www.bseidshop.com/toshlabybaco.html">$298, check it out here.</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIflXaFfIm_ollC2c-TSKN5FR7ebFibcgxyUmySwLbkTZF40IPOgerQjq_xepBn_75eE1O3UcWJ9sIdaUjySGlT7fWSr-evdkTpp8LyPKiptBD8hcFwkiasp1Ni2g8-qeKfsRnu2Faia4/s1600/276338127105332839_n7lt5mtm_c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIflXaFfIm_ollC2c-TSKN5FR7ebFibcgxyUmySwLbkTZF40IPOgerQjq_xepBn_75eE1O3UcWJ9sIdaUjySGlT7fWSr-evdkTpp8LyPKiptBD8hcFwkiasp1Ni2g8-qeKfsRnu2Faia4/s1600/276338127105332839_n7lt5mtm_c.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Anyone notice the shell next to the mantle over there? You really have to have turtles on the brain to spot it... I LOVE this space. All of the brass lighting is spectacular and all of the natural references are just too cool. Who would have thought to hang an oversized clam shell drawing? </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6F_Abk9htPBopO5GIDBmg-I7VUKfKzba8HaRz_cDc6tdRXUgwxCQgiMZLAeck-8vBic9Ufv9NjNawbfA4I5xI61S40FGuSUO22PYR1IXOnF7DvESQmtj8TRZ3bOUsMeeEUW51w_U4y2E/s1600/276338127105317413_mfglxSlz_c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6F_Abk9htPBopO5GIDBmg-I7VUKfKzba8HaRz_cDc6tdRXUgwxCQgiMZLAeck-8vBic9Ufv9NjNawbfA4I5xI61S40FGuSUO22PYR1IXOnF7DvESQmtj8TRZ3bOUsMeeEUW51w_U4y2E/s1600/276338127105317413_mfglxSlz_c.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Here is the same space from another angle... isn't that shell a star?

moravian light fixtures

Hello abode lovers and happy Tuesday! Yesterday afternoon I started looking around for the perfect master bathroom light fixture. You see, our skank, flush-mount light finally gave way and died. Mister Husband made the final call of death Sunday afternoon. After absolutely zero grieving, I started perusing the interwebs for inspiration. We will most likely wait until<i> after</i> the holidays, but I can't help but start looking around. I have been thinking about a moravian light for the front of the abode (outside) but I think it may be fun to have one of these little guys in the master bathroom as well...<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Isn't this little nook amazing? I love all of the artwork, the graphic cushion and pillows and of course, the sweet little moravian pendant hanging in the center of this precious and rich little space.</div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFtILFp0a53S_hgkHAV4ge1Lb2mJ6UJTfBhOF6_SHThyILWqjHDNzFh1QNKI9-NxssCD2ehjFG7bN77ANOFX-YpIgXGY1iAL6MtLPgUwsT2TiMoD9fg7U404kfK5o5gZTxjT3GiK9y0kU/s1600/187532771953039268_AKs6KZIY_c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFtILFp0a53S_hgkHAV4ge1Lb2mJ6UJTfBhOF6_SHThyILWqjHDNzFh1QNKI9-NxssCD2ehjFG7bN77ANOFX-YpIgXGY1iAL6MtLPgUwsT2TiMoD9fg7U404kfK5o5gZTxjT3GiK9y0kU/s1600/187532771953039268_AKs6KZIY_c.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Oh fancy... a moravian pendant with milky, white glass. This is a great look for such a modern, clean, white kitchen. I love that the shape also adds a touch of whimsy to the space. I don't particularly care for the lighting over the dining area, but you can't win 'em all!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiN6y0i6VmFEN4rAmdK1bOPYWlIYjpjoH4eZ19Pc-XmQWN91nNEybpDoPZ1eDa7bGqPogxNvAH7MO6HhKLF_QQ-lQNK_ZGvxvP5vwN9gekvym2zwngsd5NGockeZe5UA8mp9nWsXnbIOe0/s1600/6a8616a736d6.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="424" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiN6y0i6VmFEN4rAmdK1bOPYWlIYjpjoH4eZ19Pc-XmQWN91nNEybpDoPZ1eDa7bGqPogxNvAH7MO6HhKLF_QQ-lQNK_ZGvxvP5vwN9gekvym2zwngsd5NGockeZe5UA8mp9nWsXnbIOe0/s640/6a8616a736d6.png" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;">This room is so perfect.

snow in alabama

It's about that time, I am stuffed with Turkey and ready for the next <i>and best</i> holiday... CHRISTMAS! Also, as a side note, it's been jumping back and forth between 70 degree weather and 60 degree weather for the past few months, and this Tuesday evening Alabama is supposed to get it's first misting of snow. I mean, seriously? On Thanksgiving day I wore short sleeves and it was too toasty for a sweater on Saturday.... oh Alabama... silly-nilly Alabama. Now, it's not going to stick, they're saying it's going to be a <i>wintry mix</i>, but still! I feel like I reference the weather a lot on abode love, but Alabama has been very confused about the seasons over the past year and it's getting ridiculous!<br /><br />Anyway, to get in the spirit of the season, I will be listening to the Justin Bieber Christmas album as well as the old school Mariah Carey Christmas album today. To go with those jams, I will be drooling over this holiday merch...<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/catalog/productdetail.jsp?id=22667448&catId=HOME-HOLIDAYDECOR&pushId=HOME-HOLIDAYDECOR&popId=HOME&navCount=6&color=011&isProduct=true&fromCategoryPage=true&isSubcategory=true&subCategoryId=HOME-HOLIDAYDECOR-FORTHEHOME&templateType=subCategory">Crewel Paisley Stocking, Anthropologie $58</a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Aren't these the most beautiful stockings you've ever seen?

superior succulents

Hello abode lovers and happy Monday! So, I realize that talking about succulents the week of Thanksgiving is a little insane, but in Birmingham it's freaking warm outside :) <i>that's a totally sarcastic smile...</i> But I figure I'm at least thankful for the warmth so that my succulents have a chance to show off before I get all of the Christmas stuff out. So here they are... my sweet little succulents, doing high-kicks around my abode.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Love this sweet Lady dog... she's sprouting those little guys like a champ.
