Have you ever been to Anthropologie?

This is one of my favorite stores... If you are not lucky enough to have an Anthropologie near you, visit their online store. Their antique farm cabinets, and one of a kind pieces are incredible. The clothes are my favorite.

The Infamous Curtain

I wanted this curtain from the moment I laid eyes on it. But the dealer said"Its not for sale." I still want it, and hope that I will get it. I stare at it everytime I go into the antique store!

Beautiful Cool White December

I was inspired this morning by my friends home Tim & Lisa. They use alot of architectural pieces along with beautiful antique finds. Im always amazed at how soft and pretty all white is. I love the original finishes, and patinas of old statues and furnishings. Im always going back and forth on what I should do, and I am constantly changing. I will love something, and promise to never let it go, and 90days later its out the door. Its nice to get a mix between architectural and romantic. Look at some of these photos






Soft and pretty, some of my favorite pictures to look at. I will share some of their antique finds with you as well.

Designer Lauren Ross at Home

I just had to add these photos to my blog, this is the home of Lauren Ross, a desiner in Texas. Her home is one of my favorites. She uses white linen slip covers, romantic lighting, and european antiques to dress her home.

Thank you Lauren!

November Bliss & Shabby Chic

I am always amazed how busy it gets in November. Everybody is scrambling to get things together for the Holidays. I am always so busy, making slip covers, and pillows, or painting that fabulous French piece!

I took one day off this month to meet Rachel Ashwell, at a local book signing. If you havent purchased her new book, I would! It is full of inspirational photos!
