Game Table

I had mentioned the game table in the earlier post so I thought I would photograph what it looks like when the wooden top is taken off. May need to host a poker night here soon to showcase how versatile it is! :)

Showing a little Tampa love...

I've been so focused on the pop up venture that I have shown little to zero attention to the HQ...Sorry Tampa! There are some great new arrivals that I have not highlighted at all. So, here's a photo collage of what's come in as of late as well as some other pieces we've moved around and re-grouped. Enjoy!

I'll kick off the pictures with these metal angels. This picture does not do them justice. They are AMAZING! We've waited almost a year for these gems and let me just say - they were so worth the wait! These will be gorgeous in someone's home for the Holiday season.

These nightstands are phenomenal. They are stunning and could be used as more than just a nightstand due to their size. We have two of them in the showroom.

Another great piece we got in is this console table which is from the same company as the nightstands.

The console has a glass top along with a hidden drawer.

We are so thrilled to have our Four Seasons collection complete. If you are looking for an upholstered piece of furniture let us know! We have three glider chairs (in two styles) and one of their sofas. These may be some of the most comfortable chairs and sofas you have ever sat in! They've also got so many different fabrics and colors to choose from so you can pretty much find anything you are looking for!

Love this black and silver combo of the lacquered chairs with the silver and black table.

We've got so many fabulous lamps and tables in right now!

Another new arrival. This mosaic like table is so pretty - would be an excellent addition to a beach home or beach inspired home!

Pat spent this past weekend in High Point, NC at Market getting even more goodies which I will share as they start arriving!

Welcome to my home....er - I mean, store...

Hi! Remember me? I promised I would be better about blogging - well, I am still working on that...among some other things. Have you heard?? Our pop-up is officially in business! I am so happy to say our doors are open - so, please - join me on a "tour" of our new place!

Come on in and take a look around...

We are blown away at how perfect all our items went into each room. This truly was meant to be!

Our "dining room" off the living room was a perfect place to showcase both our fabulous game table (shown with top on) and....

...gorgeous daybed. You know - just in case you get a little tired after playing a rousing game of Poker (or in my case, Hearts).

If that game is a real doozie we've got a KING sized bed to rest on. But please remove our pretty white Matelasse bedding first!

Speaking of resting...

so hard to find good help around here. Always lounging on the job...She acts like she owns the company or something....

Back to the tour...

Can you believe that this transformation took place so fast? It's truly amazing!

We even have an entire room dedicated to our smaller gift items and accessories!

These scarves have become such a hit with the weather cooling off!

Recognize the dresser? It made the trip too! Currently housing our scarf and tunic inventory not displayed.

Hope you liked the photo tour of our new pop up store! And, if you're new to the blog we hope you will "like" us on HERE too!

Another Chair Rehab

These two chairs have been a labor of love! I picked these up this summer and took my time on them wanting to make them perfect. It took a lot of sanding, priming, painting, drying and repeat a few times. We had them re-upholstered with a fabulous fabric I found that I thought would be the perfect fit. Needless to say, they came out looking EXACTLY how I had hoped they would. They are going to be a great addition to any room!

Before - blah.

Cheap trim removed and sanded all the original paint off.

Remember the "drying rack"?

All complete! (Sorry - not the best picture for the 'After' shot!) What you can't see is that the chair also has the back upholstered too - so the chair as a personality from both front and back views!

I've found a new chair that is my next daunting labor of love project that I am slowly starting. And, by slowly starting I mean pulling off the original fabric which was hideous. Which I then realized I forgot to take a 'before' picture! Agh! I kept the fabric so you can use your imagination to what it looked like. Can't promise that it will be complete any time soon due to this other "small project" we've got going at the moment! :)

Its almost time...

Sorry for the lapse in updating! Its been a busy couple weeks! So much has happened and we are so amazed to see this come together. We first found our temporary home which was love at first sight!

Welcome to Just Great Things (Fredericksburg)!

The home is adorable - its on William Street which is one of the main roads here and leads right into their historic Downtown which is just about two blocks away. We have a lease through the end of the year and are just itching to get it open to the public!

Last Friday we received one of our big shipments and covered up the windows so we could start preparing for the Big Reveal.

As of 5 am this morning our packed up U-Haul truck is on its way up here with the furniture, art work and rugs. Gerry is graciously driving it up which I am sure he is just LOVING.

It also appears we may now have a Pankow road trip tradition we would like to rid ourselves of. This is the second U-Haul that was loaded up ready to take off. The first one was returned after a LEAK was discovered thanks to the torrential rainstorm that took place the day before leaving. What is it with rain and car leaks the day before take-offs for us??? Ugh.
