September 8, 2015 By Meegan 4 Comments

It’s a beautiful day, isn’t it? I have something fresh and new for you. It has only been on the market since April. AND if you are like me you like something fresh and new. If you like to use oils this is just what you need. I heard about them maybe a month ago, and I have been hooked ever since.

Yesterday I got my haircut and I was right by West Elm. Sounds fun, right? I had a great time and was completely inspired. Once I got home, I was browsing through the catalog and remembered the vases that I saw at the store. I like the color and the style, don’t you? West Elm Magazine Inspiration

It is so pretty and my style. I headed to the thrift store to find something similar to create a West Elm Inspired Vase.
