Lilly Pulitzer Sneak Peak Spring 2011, Kenneth Jay Lane, Rue La La, Jewelry Blog Sale & more Lilly Pumpkins!

The Frilly Frog posted a sneak peak of Lilly Pulitzer Spring 2011 for Minnies! I think my Minnie needs 1 of each! I hope there will be matching dresses for Mommy. To take a peak click Here: The Frilly Frog: Lilly Pulitzer Sneak Peak Spring 2011

On Rue La La I scored a BEAUTIFUL Kenneth Jay Lane (KJL) 22K Gold Plated Bamboo Bangle Bracelet for only $25.00! Retail $70.00 








I also got the matching KJL 22K Gold Plated Bamboo Hoop Earrings for $19.00! Retail $45.00


These will work so well with my Lilly and are perfect for my upcoming trip to Sanibel Island! If you are not already a Rue La La Member, Here is your invitation: http://www.ruelala.com/invite/re-lilly
It's free, fabulous, and invitation-only. Rue La La, the destination for 2-day-only Boutiques like Lilly, Kenneth Jay Lane and many others we love at private sale prices. If you want to order the KJL Pieces featured here they are currently in the Jewelry To Love ~ Pieces we are Sweet On Boutique.
Speaking of KJL and jewelry, I have a few pieces to sell and thought I would post here before selling elsewhere. I adore anything with elephants and recently received the following KJL Pieces for my Birthday: 
Not Selling this piece, I ADORE it! You can purchase on QVC by clicking HERE. 

I am selling the matching KJL Majestic Pink Elephant Necklace, I received 2! 
SOLD!

If your look leans toward the exotic, add this majestic elephant pendant to your jewelry repertoire. The center magnifying glass is bordered by an elephant design done with epoxy enamel. Clear round crystals accent the elephant's neck, tusks, and head. From Kenneth Jay Lane. Includes pendant & chain! Goldtone, Golden brown cabochon eye.
SOLD

I also LOVE Kate Spade Jewelry! I frequently shop at the Coach & Kate Spade Outlets. I bought too much! I adore the Kate Spade Mariachi Bangles shown below:

I bought too many colors and have decided to part with the gold because I have too many gold bangles!
Wavy, rickrack-inspired shape defines a fun, stackable bangle., Approx. width: 3/8"., Approx. inner circumference: 7 1/2". , Base metal/enamel
SOLD 

Let me know if you like the idea of me listing a few Non-Lilly Designer items for Sale in my Blog! I have lots of Coach too. Thought I would test this with a few designer jewelry items to see what the response was. I know I LOVE a good Blog Sale but want to know what readers think!

Lastly, just wanted to share a couple more Lilly Pumpkin Photos! These are being shipped to a Lilly Lover who inquired after my last blog.
Lilly Pumpkin is artificial and didn't come out as nice as my Real pumpkin....this foam material is difficult to carve!

Lit up! Can anyone tell me what setting I want to use on my SLR Camera to get better photos in the dark?
Stay tuned for a F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S Giveaway coming Soon!

Lilly Pulitzer Giveaway Winner Announced, Pumpkins, Fall Traditions, Festivals & Celebrations

My Minnie & I were leaving gymnastics and I noticed this beautiful tree and snapped a photo with my cell phone!
I will admit that I don't care for Fall because it gets really cold here in NH and I know what comes after. I am a summer girl who gets a little sad when the beach closes, the weather turns cold and the leaves fall off the trees so I try to make the most of the season by finding fun activities. In our house we love to carve and decorate pumpkins. Every year I do something Lilly, Pink, Girlie or all of the above! Here are some photos of this years pumpkins.
My Little Pumpkin with the pumpkins we made



We had so much fun shopping for Halloween costumes and carving and decorating our pumpkins.
Custom carved Lilly pumpkin ~ we decoupaged with Lilly Taboo napkins and spray painted the floral pick on top
Our custom carved palm tree, sponge painted pink and hand painted floral pick with Lilly ribbon
 Mini decoupaged Lilly taboo pumpkin


Below are some photos of our pumpkins lit at night 




Below are a few photos of previous years pumpkins
Miss Bella in my store display window during the Keene Pumpkin Festival. We had 90,000 visitors that year!
While pregnant with Olivia ~ just found out I was going to have a girl...hard to remember life before her!
Saturday we attended the 20th Annual Keene Pumpkin Festival. Keene (city population 23,000) was the Guinness World Record holder for the most lit jack-o-lanterns in one place! The record was 28,952 until recently when Boston (population 645,000)stole our record. The Keene Pumpkin Festival is pretty amazing, especially for a small town. Scaffolding is set up and pumpkins are displayed as tall as the buildings in downtown. Attendance is usually 70,000 people, or more, from around the world who want to see and smell 28,000 carved and lit pumpkins in one place. There is nothing like it in the world! For more information on the Pumpkin Festival click HERE

Below are some of my personal photos from Pumpkin Festival.

Scaffolding as tall as buildings filled with carved pumpkins






Looks so pretty at night and smells so good!
