latest finds
I set out Friday afternoon to hit one of my favorite antique shops and I was not disappointed. I found… A small storage caddy that was handmade out of vintage cheese boxes. How resourceful is that? And I love the grass green color. …a tool caddy. Again, I love the color of the chippy, worn paint. […]
my own little corner of the world
For those who have read my blog for a while, you know The Old Lucketts Store is one of my favorites places on the map. I have said for years that it would be a dream to be a vendor there. Even last fall, I considered it a dream that would probably be out of […]

the bamboo mat
Since first showing the bamboo mat in my dining room, I have received tons of e-mails and questions about it, so I thought it was due time to write a “tell all” post. I initially bought two mats wholesale from a friend to use in my tents at antique shows. When they arrived, I couldn’t […]
Dough Bowls
I love using contrasts in decorating. I’m definitely a “high contrast” kind of girl. Some people like calm, monochromatic spaces. I like deep blue mixed with white. Dark floors in a cream room.
