In other news, AThoughtful Place blog regularly features a Friday Eye Candy post on her blog.  She hosts contest on Instagram and selects the featured photos from among the submissions.  Last week she asked her followers to submit their favorite Home Goods finds, so I posted this recent client project as my entry.

Wow! That’s a whole lotta "likes".  And these days, I could use a little....
