From Junk Salvation to Ruffles & Rust

Thank you so much to all who came to Junk Salvation, I had such a wonderful time visiting with old friends and meeting new ones...!! It truly was a delightful day, and I am so happy some of my good "junk" has found new homes...!!

My sweet friend Lara took wonderful pictures of some of my goodies, thanks Lara!!!

Here is my favorite picture, my adorable daughter and I!!!

Now, I am getting ready for yet another show... I was a vendor at Ruffles & Rust last October, and had such a great time I can't wait to do it again...!! Ms Timi is a true master at what she does, and this show attracts some of the best customers I have ever met...

Following is a $3.00 off coupon for the Saturday show, I hope I will see you there!!!

A home full of stories...

If you are as fascinated as I am about life in France in the XVIIIth century, then you will love this home as much as I do... I know, it does not follow the current trend we see for a clean, neutral palette with basic anchor pieces and minimal accessories, but this is very much what speaks to my heart... A perfect country retreat for a modern day Marie-Antoinette...

TARTE in Aurora ::: Grand Opening

 The much anticipated opening of my friend Cindy's dream store in the historic town of Aurora is taking place this weekend, and I wouldn't miss it for anything!! Yesterday, with french palmiers in hand, I excitedly headed her way...  Wow, the girl did it again!! The store is absolutely gorgeous, the entrance alone lures you in, and, once you go inside, the magic happens... The downstairs space is warm and inviting, an eclectic mix of traditional elements and modern touches, the attention to detail is immaculate and the splashes of color create a cheery, springtime feel... The space upstairs feels like a dreamy, serene bedroom loft, where whites and grays prevail... An inviting long farm table surrounded with chairs creates the ideal setting for classes or parties...
So... When can I move in...??!!!
