Frugal Luxuries...Found

i'm finding images of frugal luxury all over bloglandia these days...


pops of pretty pink...in a simple white room



an ordinary powder room is transformed into a jewel box with the simple additions of few special mirrors and fresh flowers from the garden...




cupboards brimming with lovely...useful...mismatched china...thrifted...of course



pretty vintage linens and fabric remnants...gently washed and hung to dry in the afternoon breeze...waiting to be folded and put away for future projects...



...perhaps to stock the Gift Pantry tm with pretty bags and aprons like these


...or pillows for bringing a bit of summer color to a simple white room?




Once these joyful tasks are finished it's time to create a relaxing spot for summer sleeps...outdoors...under sunlight...and starshine
...

I discovered these lovely images on the enchanting blog of Selina Lake. Selina is a London stylist with many gorgeous books to her credit...please take a peak at her blog. I have a hunch you will get lost in it...as I did and do!


Love and good thoughts to all.


Warmly,


Tracey

Love all of these images. Makes me want to put on some soft music and curl up with a good book. I especially love the bed in the top pic!

"FRUGAL LUXURIES: Simple Pleasures to Enhance Your Life and Comfort Your Soul" was written by Tracey McBride and published by Bantam Books, NY, in 1997. It was the first of its genre to synergize the elements of simplicity, frugality and gracious living.

After more than a decade, FRUGAL LUXURIES has never been out of print and is now more relevant than ever.

"It's our hope that a new generation, faced with a teetering economy, will also find this information helpful and enlightening."
