We have only enjoyed 2 summers here at 822...
not to say that we didn't enjoy the renovations,
because there was always cause for celebration to complete some project here
but it was nice this spring to browse the favored Pottery Barn catalog to
choose a summer theme and not a concrete color!
loving sea creatures like I do...
...have I mentioned that I love Hobby Lobby?...
....and 6th Street in Amarillo....
sea creatures became the theme for the summer
you will notice a few Hobby Lobby ready made pillow covers
and these are napkins from World Market...so easy to stitch for a
colorful pillow with a very nice price tag!
a contrasting fabric from...Hobby Lobby
(are you beginning to believe I live on isle 3 in Hobby Lobby?)
World Market is my vacation home
throw them all together
with a few of last year Wal-mart pillows
and you've got yourself a happy place to sip a sweet tea in the hot summer time!
see Betty jump!

Oh how I wish we had Hobby Lobby and World Market here!! But I love your idea for the napkins. Those I can find anywhere!!!
Using napkins is a great idea. Very clever! All your choices are full of color and make a happy statement for the summer ahead.
Looks like you are all set! Have a great summer.

I love your colorful choices for your patio! It looks right out of a catalog. :) I love the way you blog, Gina. I always want to see more of your home. Every post is like a cliff hanger. Haha! Happy (almost) summer!
I can't believe we haven't met up at Hobby Lobby..I spend a LOT of time there..
and World Market...love it to pieces ...and now, HOME GOODS and MARSHALLS. I went into HomeGoods for the first time last week and got so weak in the knees, I nearly went to the floor. Tons of the best things...all aqua and turquoise..orange..blues...some of the cutest things.....
Your pool area looks beautiful.
WOW GINA! Your house, it's the house that never ends in nooks and cozy crannies, in style and enchantment! I hope you are having perfect weather and are no where near the floods? Your pool, I didn't even know you had one!
Dear one, thank you for dropping by to say HI! Happy June to you too. I will be returning to blogging once a month, because I can't stay away. But juggling work and poetry and other creative endeavors is HARD but pleasurable.
Peace and JOY to you!!! Anita
Such a fun theme for your patio this summer! Love all the vibrant colors in your pillows.

Love your knew additions, especially the pillows! What a wonderful place to spend your summer…you never have to leave home!!
I guess I have got to go to Hobby Lobby and World Market!
I love the sea creature theme. I need new pillows for my screened porch. You've inspired me to cover the ones I already have. Thank you!
Oh so pretty! Yes, I do love Hobby Lobby's pillow covers! Gotta get a couple for outside patio.
Gina, you are so going to enjoy relaxing and enjoying that beautiful amazing back yard vacation place.
I love all the lime stone walls of stone and your out building beyond the pool. It's an amazing home, can I move in?
We promise to be real quiet?
The pool is going to be a refreshing place to dip the toes in on a hot day.
The pillow choice added all the right colour for your patio accessories.
We have a hobby lobby, but lost our world market years ago, we now have to drive a good hour to our closest World Market, that place was a favorite of mine even over Pier 1 Imports.
Enjoy your beauty and all you put into it,
Thank you for your beautiful visit to my french cottage.

O verão chegou trazendo alegria a sua casa. Amei as almofadas.
Bjos tenha um ótimo dia.
I love your creativity and the color choices. Hobby Lobby has the best deals on ribbon. I also agree, that World Market has some great finds. About a year ago, I found velvet curtains for a steal. I especially enjoy their eclectic food selections. I buy my daughter German honey and Italian cookies.
Thank you so much Gina, for coming to visit me! HUGS and have a happy patio-decorating time!!!!! Anita
So pretty and fun!! Did you find the blue at Hobby Lobby as well ? I need to get over there if so!!
Your pillows are so fun and stylish. I have luck at HomeGoods and World Market, and now I need to check out Hobby Lobby. Thanks for sourcing.
So colorful and fun!

Lindas dias de verão!!!!
Obrigada amiga, pela visita atenciosa!
Beijo grande, Marie.
LOVE the pillows..Need to get to Hobby lobby soon..
Your pool looks so inviting ...especially in this heat wave...
Love the pillows! Those World Market napkin ones are adorable. If only I knew how to sew!! :)
This is incredibly nice and pleasing to the eyes! I love the theme you followed, and the combinations of the pillow on your couch really worked well – the changing colors achieved some sort of Ombre effect. Also, the prints and lines just scream summer fun. Thanks for sharing!
