Love is in the Air


Hello,

Love is in the air as Valentine's Day approaches and beckons us to buy flowers and trinkets of affection for those we love-and consume huge quantities of chocolate!  This February is extra special for our family as my son is getting married the 26th to a great gal.  Lots of wedding details and planning this month.  

Here are a few pics of my booth at Antique World Mall all decorated up for the day of love! 

A small pink tealight lamp with sparkly crystals sits on a pair of blue heart shaped end tables with stenciled bird cages that say "fly" and chandeliers that say "light". 

I love the pink and blue carousel child's planter-so charming!
I added creme shabby chic shades to a pair of vintage crystal lamp bases.  You can always find misc lamp bases at yard sales and thrift shops for a few dollars and can pick-up new shades at Target and Home Depot.

Pretty tulips on a green flower decoupaged stepping stool.

White cake plates line-up hoping to be taken home and filled with chocolate cake and fudge frosting. 

Everyone needs a touch of Paris with a silver Eiffel Tower or wooden Eiffel coat rack.

A wedding chapel birdhouse sits on cute hatboxes (hatboxes make great storage on shelves or under the bed).

Vintage Bride and Groom champagne glasses-so pretty with the original ribbons and dove decorations-sit on a shabby gold and pink tray.

Garden decor is already flying out of the shop as everyone hopes for an early Spring (this cute green planter box was sold the day after I dropped it off)!

Cute shelf filled with vintage goodies.

A pink porch column makes a cute candle holder (it only looks crooked in the pic).

A red and white polka-dot apron would be super cute to wear while you cook dinner for your loved ones!

Take care!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

Before you pack away all your Christmas decor, enjoy one last look at the holiday season.  These pics are from the Shabby House's holiday open house.  I love the Shabby House and all of their fantastic fantasy displays-and the great gals who run the shop.  (A few of the pics are slightly blurry as there were so many people, and I tried to take them fast before someone walked by.) 

Hope you all had a blessed holiday season!  Now, pack all that stuff up and let's head on towared 2011!
