Success!

I was positively thrilled to see so many of you at the Summer Trunk Show! A wonderful time was had by all while guests perused through the fabulous wares each vendor had to offer, sipping on wine and nibbling on home-made treats.

Thank you so much to the vendors who put on a lovely show!

Highlights from Spring Chica Boutiqua

It was a pleasure to attend Spring Chica Boutiqua and support some of the area's great talent! And as always, it was a delight to see a current RH sponsor, M.T. Designs!

I could gush about all the fun I had, but I'd rather show you. Here are a few snapshots of a fantastic afternoon.

How beautiful is this refinished desk? Centimental Home uses up-cycled antiques to create these ever-so-chic home goods.

Refinished antique frame + fabric covered sheet-metal = one fabulous magnet board!
