Hello Everyone,
I hope you are all having a great weekend...
I have been working on getting a room put together for my online shop.
We are currently turning our extra bedroom into a room to store all of my shop items.
I had initially planned to show you the bedroom but never got around to it....
I have all kinds of ideas of what I want Thad to do in there for shelving...
I desperately need shelves in that room to hold all of my shop items.
Now I just need to find a few more materials to complete the room....
It also meant moving a few lights around....
My poor husband gets the job of moving the chandeliers around in the house....
It pretty much drives him crazy...
This one is going in the shop room...
Which means the one that was in here, will be going in my daughters' room.
Is there something you like to move around in your house, to help freshen things up....
Or should I say is there something you make your husband move around in your house to help freshen things up?
On another note....
I wanted to share a few links to blogs I think you will enjoy!
This is where I go to get my Domino fix, Lauren is a talented designer.....Lauren's home
was featured in the December issue of Better Homes and Gardens. I love Lauren's home.
I love Jennifer's photography and style of her beautiful home...and shop, she makes the most adorable children's clothes.
The next Rachel Ashwell?
I hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend!
Take Care,
Maria

ReplyDeleteGoodness that chandelier is gorgeous! Dear Lillie is a favorite of mines, too. Hope you are having a good weekend, too!

Hey Maria ~ I am sooo glad to hear that your shop is successful and that you're having so much fun with it (even tho Thad may not be!) lol! Your treasures are the best ever and I have my eye on a few things I'm saving my pennies for! :) Have fun getting that supply room set up!

That chandelier is so pretty. Thanks for sharing the blogs. A couple are new to me and I love checking out new blogs. I'd like to invite you to visit mine because I'm posting pictures of the cutest vintage cottage. Hope your online shop is going well.
ReplyDeleteThat is a great idea to play musical chairs with the lighting fixtures, and other things around the house. It does shake things up a bit (especially the husbands) but it all works out in the end. Love the look of crystal chandeliers, so feminine and light!
ReplyDeleteHi Maria, Thank you for the eye candy!! You are one of my FaV blogs! I love your style! come visit me chateauetjardin.blogspot.com

ReplyDeleteCielo
ooohhh....thanks for the blog links. I'm gonna check them out now!
ReplyDeleteGirl, I must check your shop for updates most every single day...soooo many pretties I would just love to have!
ReplyDeleteI'm so proud of you!
Hugs,
Anne
I adore the chandelier and your store. Hope you're enjoying your weekend too :O)
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you're keeping the Mister busy...I do that too ;) Just remind him that you need to do all of this because your shop is doing so well.
ReplyDeleteYour right about Dear Lillie, isn't she wonderful?!

Dearest Maria,
ReplyDeleteFunny that you too have used one room of your home for your online shop. That's where I'm at too and if I have clients by appointment or open house, that's what I use...
Wishing you lots of success and yes, I have a husband too who is moving and changing things that I create. Keeps us both happy!
Lots of love,
Mariette
Oh my goodness! My mouth dropped when I read this post and saw the link to our blog. Thank you so much, Maria. You completely made my day. Can't wait to see the chandeliers. Chandeliers always get me into so much trouble. I am a bit addicted to them! =)
ReplyDeleteYour husband sound like a great guy :-) Rearranging rooms with kids around isn't always the easiest thing...I know :-)
ReplyDeleteI just read about Lauren. So sorry I didn't read the post in time. I hope she won. I haven't been in blog land much the past two weeks. If you think of it, say a prayer for my nephew. He is a true hero.
Thank you so much.
Blessings,
Marcia
Hi Maria,
ReplyDeleteMy husband is used to moving things around here and is always a great sport. Things just never stay the same, do they?
I love Tausha's blog, it's Simply Me and one of my very favorites, she's got a style of her own and is very sweet too. I'm still swooning over her Free People bag and keep mentioning it to my hubby.
Good luck w/your extra room, it's so fun stocking for the store thought, isn't it? Flea Mktg in Alameda tomorrow for mine, you going to be there? Send me an email if you are, I'll have my phone w/me and will love to say hi.
Belle journée, ~Tracie
Oh I can't wait...I need inspiration!
ReplyDeleteEverything is is a state of movement here...!
Have a great weekend!
I am a follower of Lauren & Jennifer ..but I am off now to Shabby Chic Girls!
Oh I got confused I am a follower of Simply Me too!
ReplyDeleteSuch great talent in this world!
Can't wait to see the online shop room! What a great idea. I don't have a room for projects and shop stuff, it is spread all over my place and I live admist it. Which isn't so bad as I buy things I love and often have a hard time parting with! ;-)
ReplyDeleteHope your weekend is off to a great start!!
~xo/michelle~
Ah ah!!! I could have written this myself... My poor husband kindly move things around as my inspiration goes... He is SO patient : chandeliers, shutters,... anything too big or too heavy really.
ReplyDeleteAlways love to see your new pics ;-)
Such a beautiful chandelier Maria...and some beautiful blogs too! ~Deb~

ReplyDeleteWow, I am missing my lilac bushes in Seattle. Hope I can find some in Chicago. Beautiful photos.
ReplyDeleteFondly,

Love your blog!
ReplyDeleteYou are so lucky to have such a handy husband! If I were to ask my sweet husband to hang a light fixture he would look at me like I were speaking to him in a foreign language! Can't wait to see the spare room when it's complete, that's a perfect place for your boutique. Another blog I have discovered and love to visit is Tausha's of Simply Me. She's incredibly talented as well! Marcia
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see your new room; I am sure it will look fabulous.
ReplyDeleteJodi
Hello Maria. I've recently noticed your lovely blog just about everywhere that I turn and will have to follow and explore some more here.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, I can relate with the husband thing for sure!
Tausha is so sweet and a fellow Floridian. I love her Rachel Ashwell~ish style.

Hope you found some lovely goods, I did!
