A few weeks back I was feeling a little out of sorts.. a little lost at the beginning of the year, it always seems like a time when you should be overly motivated, ready to run out of the gates and get some things really taken care of, make changes and plan for the year ahead. Well, I was in a total funk and kinda bummed out. On a Sunday morning I had a chance to take a little time to myself and was wandering around in the land of the blogs, I came across Lost in Arles a blog written by Heather, I spent well over an hour reading her posts and looking through her beautiful photos. I finally felt like myself, I felt inspired and awake for the first time in what seemed like a month (the holidays really took a lot out of me this year). I am ready to go, ready to be inspired, ready to travel and ready to take on the challenges of the year ahead. Maybe I will visit France in the Fall this year, I know I will be working on stream lining my time and energy into projects that I really want and need to do, and maybe just maybe I will be taking a few more leaps of faith this year.
I wanted to thank Heather and thank all of the bloggers that take their time posting so many fantastic images and inspiration!

I'm always inspired by the time worn beauty of statuary, and rustic finishes. Beautiful images. I'll have to check out her site. Thanks for sharing.
Oh... Oh... Oh... Thank you SO MUCH for the introduction - I fell in love the moment I saw this and am now their newest follower!
Have a great weekend
Thank you so much Christina! I am really flattered and am delighted if I can give back one tenth of the inspiration that I find here and elsewhere in blogland. Mainly, I am so constantly delighted by the people that I have met--it would be wonderful to add you to that list if you do come in the Fall..ah but then you will have to come to Provence!
With all my best from Arles,
Bon Weekend!
Heather
This is the type of beauty that feeds my soul, that's for sure.
Without it, I feel disappointed, and when I see kindred, it renews me, and fuels my endless journey to fill my home with like objects (on a strict budget, sigh).
Thanks for the introduction to Heather's site, and have a wonderful weekend, Christina!
Beautiful photos! It always amazes me how creative people can take such ordinary items and create such beautiful vignettes. I have to work at that and for some, it just comes naturally.
What a nice surprise to find another of my favorite blogs, Lost in Arles, herein! Serendipity? Kismet? C'est si bon!
the dining chairs are fantastic.
i haven't seen any like them.
xx have a nice week-end
Heather really does have a wonderful blog. She is so sweet and also so intelligent. I adore her writing style & the way she takes me away with her stories. I feel lost in Arles each time I read her blog!
