I've been thinking about how people blog about so many things - from makeup tutorials, to nail photos, and great finds on eBay or Etsy - and I wanted to try my hand at it as well.
I'm a Pinterest-Addict.
I admit it, and my boyfriend understands. There is so much out there - from tutorials on how to put on makeup, how to cover up flaws with makeup, what makeup is trending, to nail art, fashion old and new, cute animals photos, great photography across the world, arts, crafts, DIY - the list goes on and on and on!
I wanted to put together some images from Pinterest of different fabulous finds. I'll choose a different category for each blog post.
First choice? Images from Ireland! Why Ireland you ask? Well, for starters, I'm part Irish. My Irish can be traced back to 246AD when the family was actually in Scotland and had to leave to resettle in Ireland. And that's where we stayed, until Archibald and Rebecca (Boyd) McKaughan crossed to ocean to settle in America. My great-great-grandmother was Molinda McKaughan, and she was full Irish. I'm throwing a few of my own personal photos in here as well.
So, without further ado, let's explore some highlights of Ireland!
Powerscourt House & Gardens :
 |
| Powerscourt House & Gardens - a gorgeous piece of property just outside the quaint town of Enniskerry with several themed gardens, wonderful old house, and a rose garden to DIE for! I went here in 2003 |

Powerscourt Garden Gate, just outside the fabulous rose garden.

Rock of Cashel, Tipperary:
 |
| This was my first view of Rock of Cashel, and I had to pass through kind of "keep the cows out" type of s-shaped gate. I had parked on the main road, not knowing where this place was. Walked up a long drive and WHAM! There it was! An absolute MUST to see in Ireland! |
 |
| I tried to get the whole floor plan of the place, but I had a very cheap camera, and it was a cloudy day. Place isn't overly huge, but definitely fascinating! |
Bunratty Castle:
Yeats Grave, County Sligo:
 |
Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half-light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams
|
Giants Causeway, Area in County Antrim, Northern Ireland - masses of Basalt Towers:
One final stop for today: Blarney Castle. One cannot go to Ireland without visiting Blarney Castle. Such a beautiful piece of land, interesting ruins, and, if you wish, you can kiss the Blarney Stone:
This concludes our short trip to Ireland. I will most definitely post another with more photos.
Stay tuned!
