the new desk...what made the cut...and...would anyone come for a "fall sale" ?



when you get a new desk...that is smaller, and prettier than the last desk...it is time to edit out the junk...
and go for the "pretty". I have really pared this down, with some of my very favorites on display.
the opera glasses, gorgeous tags from little beach designs, a pink one year diary from little beach designs, (yep, love her stuff!)...
my favorite antique booklets, lace, and miniature boxes...
and my favorite miniature couple, that were made in Germany at the turn of the century (the last one!)
just thought I would share a private moment, instead of news of the store.
I am often asked at the store, "what does your house look like?", so I thought I would share a few vignettes. I am also contemplating a fall open house, a little "home sale" in my backyard, since I have also had lots of curiosity about the greenhouse my husband and his friends built for me. Just not sure...would anyone show up? I am currently cleaning out boxes & boxes from storage...and thought that it might be fun to set up...here! just a thought...

YES to a fall sale! My favorite season and (please) an excuse to shop..."Oh, this ?, it's going to be a Christmans present." Thanks for the blog comments and we'll see you soon!

I second the YES to a Fall sale, it's also my favorite season, can't wait.
The best part of your new desk? The little mirror on the top, because when you're seated at your new desk you can look at yourself and say, "Wow, was I ever smart to purchase this b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l desk"!
It's just stunning and I can't wait to see it in person!
