i know, i know…that sounds like an oxymoron coming from me but lately I’m inspired by lots of intense color and seem to keep trying to incorporate it in (gently of course) into my world. Last night I spray painted a chair neon pink with graffiti. I don’t know what’s gotten into me! So, this weekend I was on a rare Saturday shop-a-thon with my best friend and we went into Another Time and Place. I have been in before but it didn’t quite ring home for me like it does now. It’s a gold mine of goodness folks! Think Elle Decor here people…all kinds of imported tapestries, jewelry, home goods. The Knox location is the original and is closing down so the owner can focus on his newest project, a hotel in Turkey! A little sad but lucky for us everything in the store is HALF OFF…not to worry there are still two locations here that will remain open but I’m saying, run, don’t walk because there are deals and treasures to be had.

Happy Monday!

I was at my editor’s home the other day, Tracy Achor Hayes and she had the most beautiful tapestry that she is planning to hang on her wall. This reminds me of it only hers is hot pink. This one has hints of pink in the details and could be perfect for the same decor use.

TONS of bedspreads, tapestries, table runners… just about anything you can think of. I

Little tiny bowls - so pretty for rings or small tea cups lovely for a little morning tea outside.

I’m sure someone could pull off these shoes… I am not that person but the over the shoulder bags were super cute and I think I could definitely rock one of those.

IKAT! Yes, ikat pillow covers. So pretty… $13.50 each. SERIOUSLY… do you think I’m kidding about these deals.

Ok, so this is not my vibe at home but if you’ve ever been to the Inn of the Five Graces… Hello gorgeous. So if you have a place for these, you’ve hit the gold mine friend.

Well, hello beautiful necklace I would be lucky to own! This is big, statement jewelry. Currently on a very pretty, colorful braided piece but could easily be put on a chain of some sort. I realllllly think I need one of these.

If you know me at all you know I love big rings… so…jackpot!

Tons and tons and tons of rugs. We layered one similar in the Aldridge home with a cowhide…something to think about. I am not a fan of all of this at once but any and all of this carefully chosen can really make a space amazing. Enjoy shopping!
