5 Random Friday Finds

Find No. 1

Somebody has been sleeping in Goldilock's bed…


and it isn't Goldilocks…


Find No. 2


Window reflection is a freshly mopped floor can be quite striking, especially after some iPhone camera app. magic.

Find No. 3



My new Kelly Moore Purse/Camera Bag came this week. I must say I absolutely LOVE it! It is so wonderful to have my camera with me all the time now. This color is called Grassy Green and it is wonderful.

Find No. 4


Our new couch came this week. It is amazing once you start replacing 10+ year old furniture, how you need to keep on replacing.


Glen and I will be looking at new computer desks and new chairs this weekend.

Find No. 5


Of course a new color scheme is sure to follow. These are two options. A lot depends on what we find for chairs this weekend.

Like that luscious green bag! Furniture purchases are such fun, even if they break the bank a bit! Happy hunting. Love your new leather . . .

Karen Lakis said...

I've been drooling (ahem, not literally) over those bags! I love it! The mopped floor photo is very cool! Have a nice weekend!

Claire said...

Ooooh, love that bag - the colour *swoon*
Nice couch too!
It's my first Random 5, so lovely to 'meet you' :)

Hootin Anni said...

Love the new furniture...but even more so, love the wall colors!!!! And your camera bag...well, the color again is magnificent. And the Golden Lab is such a precious fur baby!!

Nancy said...

Well, she does have golden locks. :) Thanks for joining in R5F this week.

Buttons Thoughts said...

Love the purse love the couch and LOVE love Goldilocks:) Hug B

Elizabeth Edwards said...

i love the blue scarf (tie, what do people call them?) on your doggie ... too cute!! ( :

Simon said...

No that ain't Goldilocks, cute though. I love your new couch. I'm not liking that head's up on 10 yr old furniture as my couch is approaching that age now, but most of my furnishings are hand me downs that have lasted a whole lot longer. Maybe it's because someone disguised as Goldilocks isn't allowed on the furniture. : )

Ahayes1225 said...

What a nice visit into your home. Your new couch is wonderful.

Jeanne said...

I love your new Kelly moore camera bag. I have really been admiring those of late, but have several other methods of carrying my camera, and hate investing in any more. Really cute though, and much better looking than mine. have a great weekend!

Snap said...

I giggled about "Goldilocks" ... I had a German Shorthair who knew she wasn't allowed on the bed. We'd come home from work. She would meet us at the door with a loving look. Lo, and behold ... on the bed we could the outline of her body. Too funny! Love your new camera bag and couch ... you are having fun. Love the mopped floor -- cool. Happy Friday!

Unknown said...

Great photos! Love what you did with the mopped floor photo! "Goldilocks" may soon switch to the new sofa - looks comfy for napping!

Ewa said...

What a lovely dog you have!!! I also accidentally went into your other photo blog; BEAUTIFUL!!!

After you said your couch was 10 years old, I stopped and thought and ours is almost 18 years old. Might be time to redecorate!! LOVE the green KM bag! Enjoy!!

Anonymous said...

I like all your finds this week. I think we have the same couch, but mine is about 12 years old now and needs a replacement too!

Michelle B said...

I love the window reflection, those iphones do come in handy. Your new bag is awesome!

Unknown said...

lol on # 4. Great couch...Love that blue pillow. I can't wait to move, sell everything and start over after 15+ years! Happy weekend Sarah!

nancyjean said...

good morning Sarah...love your new camera bag! you will love it!!! And your new furniture looks so comfy. I so know what you mean...once you replace one piece, it seems to snowball!! Enjoy!

tiarastantrums said...

oh love the new Kelly Moore bag - I wish I had purchased one of hers!, INstead I bough a shutterbag and I do not like it at all and am stuck with it!

Stephanie said...

Love your purple wall. Is that being changed? I chose the same color for my camera bag - different style though.

Cathy H. said...

First, love the quilt on the bed! Did you make it? Second, great new couch. I also have a basket sitting by the end of my couch. Third, love, love, love the new bag! And, lastly I like seeing where you spend your time. Who plays the guitar?

Rose said...

I wish I was getting new furniture...I like the couch you got. Sounds like fun to me to be replacing, but seems like every time we get any, I cannot find exactly what I want...then settle for something and am never fully satisfied.

Hey, Goldilocks would be a good name for her...if it is a her. Not so much if a him.

Kim Stevens said...

I have the Kelly Moore 2 Sues bag in Raspberry and love it....however, I have had to resort back to my black camera bag when I go out to the sunrise or birding trails, it's not meant for that kind abuse I have found. But it was so perfect for traveling when I went to Chicago last summer. How fun to get new furniture and I really like both color schemes, hard choice.

Kim Cunningham said...

Congrats on your new KM bag! I love the color!

Sherri B. said...

Aww, your dog is so sweet... <3

I love your new bag and your new couch - your living room is gorgeous!

Gattina said...

It's a cute replacement on the bed ! Your new couch looks very nice !

Beverly said...

Oh what a fun week you had!! LOVE the KM grassy green bag for sure! Love the new sofa, and the floor with reflection is such a great abstract. And One Little Doggie Jumpin on the bed. :)

abrianna said...

I like the blue and green floral color scheme the best. I am glad you like your new bag...I keep trying to win one of those, but have had no luck yet.

diane said...

LOL Great post.
We need a new couch, too. I can't find anything I like.
Have a great weekend.

I just adore the photo of your pup.. And that couch looks awesome. LOVE it.

Hugs~

Unknown said...

The bag is such a happy color! Pup looks as though it's his bed, not Goldilocks. Thank you for the chuckle.

jp@A Green Ridge said...

I have a handbag that is that green and love it in the Spring...sassy!! The couch reminds me of our leather...which I love!!!..:JP

Big Rigs 'n Lil' Cookies said...

I love that bag! It may not have been Goldilocks, but it looks like it fit.... just right!

Roxi H said...

Yes sir, you've got my bag! We have great taste, huh? I do wish it was lighter weight but you can't beat the color. And I love your wall color. Is it eggplant color? I vote for a touch of turquoise in the room. Just sayin'

aspiritofsimplicity said...

My dog is sleeping on my bed as I type.

Margie said...

Had two golden's - they are amazing dogs. Fabulous green bag - it would have been my choice too. Enjoy all your new purchases.

Maude Lynn said...

I love that bag!

Northwood Jane said...

I'm glad to know someone enjoys my bed when I am gone.
LOVING the new couch. My vote is for the pillow & color scheme on the left.

Nicki said...

replacing does have a domino effect. Love the camera/purse and the couch.

Suburban Girl said...

Oh fun! I love getting new decor. When we bought our house it needed a new oven, so we replaced the oven and ended up getting a whole new kitchen because the new oven accentuated the awfulness of the old kitchen! Enjoy your new bag. I have avoided the temptation of buying one...so far.

Diana said...

love that bag

amy of studio four corners said...

yes...keeping our golden off of the couch is a challenge...we've given up on the bed! and I agree with everyone else - that KM bag is wonderful!

Love the sofa... ours is similar and I do need a new chair too, but the old one, although a bit worn is just so comfy. GOod luck with your chair and desk search... furniture shopping and finding the perfect item can be challenging.. xox
