Tree Notch


What a nice use of a tree, right? This one didn't get chopped down for nothing! I'm in love. It's just exquisite.....with wood like this who needs a complex designed cocktail table? It's on my Christmas list....well, not this exact one. But, I have a handy father!!! If it ends up under the Christmas tree this year, I'll definitely share a photo or two. If your wondering where you can get this piece....Hudson Furniture.

A BASKET FOR YOU?




How do you use your baskets????? What warmth a basket can add to a room! And, not only do they look good, but they are functional, as well. And, even better they come in all shapes, sizes, and forms! Oh...the many ways you can use a basket.

A PILLOW OR 2


Not long ago, I blogged about John Robshaw. This FANTASTIC creative mind that spits out festive, young textiles. I ran across this picture and had to share. Pillows! Along with chairs and luggage, it is another one of my obsessions. Like paint on a wall a couple pillows can change the entire look of a room. Enjoy!

DRIVING AROUND TOWN....

And, not with the boy I love....but, alone. I sped fast but not far past this little place before my spedometer went from 65 to 15mph. And, my car no longer headed west but in a more familar direction...east. As I pulled up and wondered how I was going to park without A. getting taken out by passing traffic or B. parking without getting a nail in my tire. I think it's really places like this that hold the best....FIND ME AND MAKE ME PRETTY TREASURES. And, of course ones braveness to dig in the black, jumbled corners. I took as many pictures as I could...but, couldn't waste all my time snapping and not digging.

LOOK WHAT I FOUND....

OK....So, with my new job driving in 4 of the southern states. I can't help myself but to pull off the roads I travel to stop at the MANY antique stores I pass. Trust me.... there is no way I can stop at all of them. So, I tell myself next time for some...but, I lucked out at this little store next to a 2 lane paved road. What do you think? Well... I bought it anyway. Not sure where I am going to put it...uhhhh. It's from the Art Deco period. Are yall starting to see a pattern here? I tend to favor pieces from that period. At least I am consistent, right? So, back to the chandelier, should I paint it? Or leave it gold/brass? Give me your opinions, please.
