New Obsession: Teal and Yellow

For Christmas/ Birthday (only a few days after) I recieved my very frist Le Creuset pieces. The color is beautiful and I am so excited to start using them.

This is one of the pieces I recieved, a cast iron frying pan!I started thinking about what else I would like and since I am in need of a new tea kettle I thought of this I started thinking and I really love teal and yellow together. A LOT.

Here is what else I would like in my teal and yellow world:

Pillows with Personality ... and for a great cause!

Lisa Goldstein is one of our very favorite local Chapel Hill talents.  She creates whimsical hand-appliqued pillows with motifs ranging from this handsome owl to cheery flowers and racing cars.  Each one is individual and guaranteed to bring a smile to your day.

The UNC Beacon Program is hosting their annual silent-no-more-auction tonight at The Siena Hotel from 5:30 - 8:00 pm.  Lisa has generously donated one of her unique pillow creations for the silent auction at this event.  Please help support this worthwhile cause!

The University of North Carolina (UNC) Hospitals Beacon Child and Family Program provides comprehensive, coordinated care to UNC Health Care System's patients, families, and employees experiencing a variety of family violence. - UNC Beacon Program web site

We love having Lisa's pillows at The Virginia Gail Collection.  Our clients love them too!
