Eye Candy - The Simple Life
I think Eye Candy is supposed to
refer to looking at yummy boyz, or girls, whatever your desire, yet for us
freakers in the world of design eye candy can be so much more. Do you find you walk around in a daze
sometimes feasting your eyes on the small details of life? This is what I love
about this simple life I am trying to live and enjoy here in Umbria and the
world, the eye candy is everywhere.
Hot pink azaleas with moss green
velvet yum! The crystal vase is
really a wall sconce that I turned into a vase. I love it with the silver leaf table.

Some days the eye candy just
jumps out at me.

| who doesn't love pink columns and cobblestones |
 |
| this side mirror is beyond fabulous 1964 Ford in Foligno, Italy... strange culture time warp |
If this table and stools were
mine, I would like to move them inside put felt all over the bottom to not scrape
the floors and then make velvet cushions in slate blue to go on each stool.
 |
| way cool as your dinning room table |
 |
| Umbria in the fog |
And the fog and mist makes life
mysterious and romantic.
A surprise birthday candle for a
friend?
Remember to slow down and enjoy your own eye candy -whatever it may be or wherever you might find it, that is the simple life embraced.
Cheers,
Natalie
Hi Natalie! Your cousin Mary was my roomie at art camp recently, and when she discovered that I have read all of Marlena de Blasi's books and was thinking about traveling to Orvieto, she told me about your blog. I too blog about our simple life in the Hill Country, only for us it is the Texas Hill Country! So happy to have found your blog!
