Crowned With Love


Via

Crowns.
Tiaras.

I know anything royal related is "old hat" by now. 
But I was loving crowns before the royal craze.

In decor.

I recently bought this ribbon from Raggy Girl Vintage for my daughter's birthday.  She loved it!


Another favorite Etsy seller, A Cozy Cup of Tea makes this sweet red ticking crown pillow.

Loveleigh Treasures is giving away this cute bag.

Are you a princess or a diva?

    Princess or diva? I did not know that one had to choose but to be what she wishes as any given moment.... (wink, wink)

    We call one of our rooms "the princess room" for daughter #2 and the other daughter is called "Queen Bee" (both are divas, too!)

    I love that room with the black crowns on the wall and I'll take a cookie to go with that - hah! Love this post, Tammy!

    Bises,

    this was a fun post. I love crowns and have seen some incredible ones for sale on Etsy with an equally incredible price tag. I wore a tiara on my wedding so I guess I am a princess. Divas are spoiled rotten, so that would not be me.

    Wish I had a little princess to buy for. Really sweet ribbon you found for your daughter. I'm definitely not a diva... not good with fashion. I really like the pillows and handbags. They add a touch of whimsy to the ho hum. I think they look beautiful on brides, as well.
    Have a great day my friend :)

    Hello sweet friend,
    I'm neither a princess or a diva, I'm just me.:D I love crowns, though, I have one and I have to smile whenever I see it.
    I love all of your great images today. Perhaps you should be a Canadian, we see Royalty on a fairly regular basis because we are a Commonwealth Country. I have seen all of them except for Charles boys, I think.
    Have a sweet day!
    Hugs, Cindy

    I haven't jumped on the "crown" bandwagon yet but after setting eyes on your first example I'm changing my tune! I love the chicken wire, what a unique accent, adorable.

    Princess stuff for little girls is certainly a rage and total fun. I was quite taken by the crown shaped toast! Fun post!

    After looking at all these images and uses for crowns and tiaras, I can see how putting on one can immediately tranform you into a queen, princess, or diva!

    I agree with podso...fun post!

    Love all your crown images! You must be spending as much time on Pinterest as I am!!! A new addiction ~ ask dr. hubby if he has a pill that will cure it!! LOL Sometime you need to tell me how to add the credits back to the photos we find there. I'm kinda "challenged" in that area!

    Love this post....and yes, I'm a princess, too!

    I have to be honest and admit that I'm a diva. My sweet little girl (who just turned 27) is the princess.

    Crowns have never done much for me but you've certainly got me changing my mind. They are kind of fun, aren't they?

    Crowns crowns everywhere! One for each of us I think. Now I know why my cookie cutter caught your eye! Why is it they are so fun to use in our decor? Wishful thinking, all us girls long to be a Princess deep down, LOL! Thank you for sharing my Junk Queen bag, it was very sweet of you. Have a great Thursday Queen Tammy!
