Hello! I'm working away, trying to get everything done in a short week; just like most of you are. Although, not totally certain; I think we may be traveling to Dallas for the weekend. I really hope we do because I LOVE Dallas shopping:) In order to find the best sites, I like to check out Style Swoon for great hints. Check it out. Its a great blog! Anyway, I saw an article about a shop called North Star Antiques. This place is going at the top of my list to see. 
(Photos via North Star Antiques website)I'm just hoping they are open Thanksgiving weekend. Please, please be open!!!!!
Voila, in Los Angeles!! After reading the article about them over at 1st dibs, I can't get them out of my head. It seems like a rather haunting and intense place. 
That's it! I need to have black walls somewhere! 
I will admit that living with all the items in this store would be over the top, but adding one or two...talk about an amazing touch. I found these photos at 1st dibs, but there are more at Viola's site.
I don't often get to write about a furniture store in houston that I've never been too, but this is one of those times! This weekend The Fabulous Flea opened its doors to the public for a rare sale. I decided I needed to jump at the chance at seeing this place, and it was worth it! I was ready to move into this beautiful space. Its so quaint and romantic:)
(This little doorway captivated me. I imagined the curious places it might lead to)Mary Daly along with the fabulous folks at Found For the Home, put together a beautiful collection of antiques and unusual objects. P.S. If you are reading this, live in Houston, and its before 5:00 pm on Saturday....go check it out for yourself!
This beautiful carved horse head was my favorite piece! Why am I so into horses now?I grew up in West Texas and didn't care about them then...oh well.
Ooh, I even got to take a peek at the pool house, behind the studio. I tell myself that this was special treatment,but I'm not really sure if it was. Anyway, just had to share. Don't you just love it?!
I was casually reading through the Location Works site and foundthis beautiful home. Architecturally, it is nice but what I really love is the amazing collection of unique furniture.
It looks to me that ever single piece has meaning behind it. Pretty, pretty:)
I am a big believer in living with pieces that are personally meaningful and not bought tobe filler, everything in the home should be like family, don't you think?
