A Very Happy Bench

The New Year Fairy *does* exist...and her name is Gitzi!!!

After seeing the recent Abundant Christmas post (no need to link, just a small scroll down away)...Gitzi thought it would be nice as well, for our little garden bench to be graced with the PB pillow I'd been coveting over the holidays.

Of course, I was extremely thrilled with the idea and thanked her profusely in advanced. She then went on to PB's website to order the lovely item...and it was GONE, completely GONE!!!

It seems that I wasn't the only one coveting this fluffy and pretty, early dose of spring.

But with quick thinking, a few prayers...and a wee bit of fairy dust, a prompt call was made to the local PB where I'd first seen the pillow, and it proved successful (whew) - they had one left...
The first blessing of the New Year had arrived!

So now our little bench is very happy...and so is a particular New Year Fairy's daughter! ♥

The pillow is like an illustriation and so beautifully compliments the carving on the bench.

It's wondeful when two things come together and compliment eachother...a pillow for the bench, a bench for a pillow...perfect!

I love, love, love that pillow! What a perfect addition to a fabulous bench. I thought at first you were posting pictures from the pottery barn store....because your house is so fabulous! I would love it if you stopped by today for the impossiblity challenge! Your "impossiblity" could even be searching high and low for the perfect pillow!

It was simply meant to be. ;)

What an enchanting pairing. Perfect for your gorgeous home, J!

Happy New Year, dear friend! Wishing you the best of everything in 2012. You deserve every happiness.

Jessica,
I have nearly the same bench, but it's old and weather gray now, and your new pillow would just as good with that patina! It was truly meant to land on this seat!

Thank you so much everyone! I've been checked out for the past week (or so), but it's been wonderful reading your sweet comments...I'm so thrilled you all like the pillow as much as I did...it's still making me smile (and think of spring!), which is a very good thought considering we're supposed to get snow tomorrow! xoxo
