Black & White Stripes

I have loved black and white since the 1980s. Over the years, I've added splashes of red, pink or cobalt blue. My all time favorite is black, white and naturals (such as wood). It is no surprise that that I love these stripes, I've been seeing everywhere! I will try to give credit to where credit is due, but I've been saving some of these photos in my inspiration files for years. I hope they are inspiring to you, too.

Succulent Wreath

I saw this Succulent Wreath on BHG.com today and absolutely loved it! 

I like the starfish in the middle, too!

I do not have a green thumb (as verified by my husband), but think I may be safe with this plant. 

The wreath only requires water every 3-10 weeks. With it on the front door, I can't forget about it...so, I may give it a try. I found the tutorial here

Here are some other succulent lovelies:
