~ever had a blond moment?~


please say you have

even if you are not blond

first i can't find those adorable skates

then i had my eye on this pillow cover at restoration hardware


the one at the very front

isn't it charming and vintage looking and well, french

then it went on sale, big time sale

but i don't BUY pillow covers, i MAKE them

so i held back

just kept looking at it online every day

then Sissie goes and posts about the very same pillow here

and that did it

if she could buy it (and she makes the most gorgeous pillows)

then i was gonna splurge and get it too

so i did

BUT somehow in the whole process of entering my life details online

i missed that i had ordered THE WRONG PILLOW!!!!!!

(the plain one at the very back)



 

horror of horrors

big blond moment

i emailed...

twice

no response

so i called them

they were ever so helpful and are doing their best to halt the order

but it was being packaged as we spoke (do they have to be so efficient)

anyway, the object of my affection will soon be on it's way, and it is yet to be established if the other pillow will find it's way here too, or will be stopped in time...

so alls well that ends well

if you've just gotta have one too, hop on over to RH, they have an extra 10% off right now too

(or you can wait for my spring line on etsy - coming soon!)

smiles,

Tracey
 (yes, I am blond, so no offense intended to my blond blogging friends, i'm sure you never do stuff like this!)

ps. my canadian blogging friends, do you know that RH ships to Canada now, and the shipping cost is not bad...
(and no, I am not on their books!)

I have been going back and forth about getting the pillow too, and then when I saw it on Sissie's couch it gave me the nudge I needed and I placed my order. :)
I didn't buy the insert though. I'm hoping I can find it cheaper.
