It's All In The Details!

Detail... when I think about it, it's the reason why I do the things I do; it's what makes me buy magazines, hold on to catalogs, read blogs, even buy some movies on DVD. I'm always looking for that "special" little touch.

Recently, I picked up the recent issue of Home & Heart magazine

If you haven't seen it yet, go ahead and check it out. It's loaded with beautiful details to make any party, one that your guests are sure to remember. It has ideas for a Fairy Party, a tea party, an adorable diaper cake and so on.

I also love it when, I open up a package, and the presentation takes my breath away. It could something as simple as a pretty ribbon wrapped around the item. It can also be a handwritten thank you. To me these little details say " I put a great deal of care doing this", or " I value you as a customer". I buy many things online, these are some of the details that I've received with the items:

From One Hundred Wishes

Andrea sends her items beautifully packaged, and inside she places the heart shaped lollipop, and a handwritten postcard, no matter how many times I've ordered from her.

I also buy from Peacoats and Party Hats, Candice Carpenter's new website. I love this plastic balloon bouquet she sent!

Isn't this cute?

That's me, always weak at the knees when it comes to details!

That's all for now. Tomorrow I'll show you the beautiful swap items I received today for Sarah's

Hanging Up Springtime Swap.

Hugs, Rosa

TARGET finds #1

First off, happy Monday!. Hi, my name is Rosa...and I am a Target shop-a-holic. I remember the first time I went to one of these stores ( about 13 years ago ), I thought, what's the big deal?. I didn't care too much about it, I wasn't impressed at all. It all started when we moved to our house, about 10 years now. We needed some things for our new place, so there I was back at Target. It was like instant love!!. To make my story short, I shop at Target at least once a week. Do you think I need help?

My husband definetly thinks so!. From now on, I'll post pictures of my finds in case anybody sees something...and wants to go and buy it. So these are my latest acquisitions:

On top, are storage bins. I'll use these to store my scrapbook kits. On the bottom, a shower curtain, and bath rug.

Top picture, some cute pails I found on the Easter aisle. In these, I'll store paper clips, rubber bands, push pins... you get the picture. The bottom picture, a beautiful Scrapbook kit( georgeous

pattern paper included), a binder, address book, and tissue paper.

So if you've seen anything you like, go get it before it's gone!

Hugs, Rosa
