High Styling for Pets

Hope you all had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend!  I celebrated my birthday...and a nice long holiday weekend as well. It's always so nice to have just that one extra "day off", isn't it?

I received many special birthday blessings this year, along with many beautiful cards, songs sung to me (yes, people still call and sing...even with all the high-tech stuff around), dinner out with my hubby....and a CAKE (for those that know me well, I LOVE birthday cake!).  One gift in particular that I received from a treasured friend (Thank you again, Tammy!) I am hoping I can maintain.  She knows me well and the "instructions" said "very little care needed"...so THAT is a good thing!  Here is what it was...

A gorgeous PINK Knock Out Rose Bush!

We got it planted yesterday and now I can just watch it grow - well, water it too!  I cannot wait to see the results and to have these PINK blooms all summer long.  It has a very special place now just off the bottom step of our back deck so we can see it every time we go out there. Any of you had any experience with these roses?  Just curious!  

Thank you to all of you that made my birthday so special!  I greatly appreciate your love and thoughtfulness more than words can say!

OK, now, back to TODAY.  I ran across these and instantly thought of how we can now get our pets in on a little more design fun...
Preston Treat Jars
I just adore these cute little treat treat jars from Ballard.

Then I saw these...
Trellis Pet Crate Cover
Sassy crate covers...how cute is that?  Of course, I'd be concerned that they wouldn't get enough air with one of these things on it...???  Maybe just a good thing for the winter months, huh?  It would indeed keep them warmer.  However, I don't even use a pet crate...she sleeps in the bed with us and has run of the house all day long. 

Bone Shaped Pet Bowl Mat
How about some cute and colorful bowl mats!

Leopard Collar
And now we can style them with some stylish leopard too...how's THAT for your pet?  

Do any of you have these or other "fancy" products for your pets?  How about any of those stylish pet beds...you know, the ones that really look like real beds?  Come on, fess up!  All of us animal-lovers must admit that we love to spoil them!

Diving back into reality now (i.e. work!), but I hope each of you have a "Simply Irresistible" Day!

  1. Happy belated Birthday. I love the idea of making the dog area more glamorous. Thanks for the comment on my blog. Th Quarry looks amazing. I am guessing you are a golfer?

  2. Thank you so much! Yes, our little furry friends deserve the best! Nope, not a golfer. Just like the location and all of the amazing amenities at the Quarry. We would love to downsize and live more simply - our goal. We also found a church there that we absolutely love (watch it live online every Wed and Sunday - long distance members!) and The Quarry is closer to it as well. Are you still there? Can't wait to read all about it. Thanks for following my blog (I/m not too much of a REAL blogger, yet anyway!) I love your blog!!! You are one talented lady - oh my gosh! Amazing! Have a blessed day
