a) I'm going to the lake tomorrow so I won't be able to post for a while
b) I've been feeling very guilty about my recent lack of posts
c) Hopefully this post will tide you over til I return

So let's take a little tour shall we? This only scratches the surface of what they offer, but I just pulled the things I would buy (if I were letting myself spend money right now, which I'm not, so that's why they call it window shopping : ).

ReplyDeleteLovely! Have a fun time at the lake!

L-l-l-l-loooovveee the lemon tree, dearest!
ReplyDeleteThis is all so very "you"! So sorry we missed our phone date last night... perhaps we can do a quick catch up post-work or at lunch?
Love you!
Oh my gosh!!! I love everything you picked out!!! I will have to go check that place out!!! I saw that same bird cage lamp at Cracker Barrel on clearance for $25.00!! I love the base but not the shade at all! I wonder what would look right? The shade was made out of metal too, so maybe painted?
ReplyDeleteTake care!

I'm a post slacker too!!!

ReplyDeleteI adore the lemon tree. I had 25 lemon topiaries that I purchased when I got married several years ago. I had sort of a lemon/lime themed wedding. It was too fun using the colors and real/fake fruit to decorate.
I have to tell you that I found a steal at the DAV on East Central this weekend. It is a huge, (when I say huge I mean giant....almost five feet tall) black and white tin clock! It wouldn't even fit on top of my four runner, so they had to strap the beauty on top! It is just decorative, but lovely all the same. Not sure what I am going to do with it, but I am digging it just leaning again one of the walls in the living room.
I went into the Maxx last week and didn't find one thing for me...I found a few gift items for the kids, but I was disappointed. I am ready for some real shopping...like at the flea market in September.
Have a great week!
Oh my...I love this stuff too! Especially the lavender, velvet ribbon and the soap. Thanks for sharing :)

ReplyDeleteHow have I never ever heard of this place? Wow! I can use lots of thesse things in my business and in my home. Thanks a million! Xo...Linsey
ReplyDeleteI'm the worst comment-responder person ever!! Mira, that clock sounds amazing!! I need pictures of this stuff : ) And you found it at the DAV?! How awesome! Is it vintage or newish? Trying to get an idea of it in my head!
ReplyDeleteLinsey, I know, right?! I'm just kicking myself for not buying the French wire urn tho, because it has disappeared off the site. I'm hoping it will come back in stock because I just loved it! Thanks for coming by!

ReplyDeletethe clock is newer, but meant to look old. Check out the five foot non-operational clock in the latest Restoration Home Catalog....very similiar, with the roman numberals etc., except for the 1500.00 price tag!!
