Wow! I can hardly believe that it, but April’s nearly over! Between Market Days, Easter, and Spring Break with the girls, it’s flown by.

But I’ve also been busy in the barn and here are some pictures of what’s going on there:

A Market in My Backyard – SO COOL!

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , , , , on March 31, 2012| Leave a Comment »

It really is the ultimate for someone like me (addicted to all things home and decorating):  I currently have a tent city of spectacular finds nestled throughout the grounds of my home.  It is, truly, AWESOME!

As the trucks rolled in today, I was like a kid in a candy shop!

Yes, today I believe that happiness can be bought.  And I’m lookin’ right at it.

I figured if I could peak under the truck tarp, I could peak into the tents.  Here’s some of what I found:

All that, and Annie Sloane dropped in to see us (more about that later . . .)

Sorry I’ve been so quiet lately. Taxes and other depressing paper-work have kept me busy. But in the mean time, so many great things are happening in the barn. Here’s a little peak at one of the great new pieces that you’ll be seeing more of soon.

Love the nail-head trim, and the burlap back.

Stunning, huh?

And then there’s the hand-crafted sideboard created from Library of Congress card catalogs, an unprecedented selection of chairs (yes, even for us!) in every style from formal french to Hollywood glam to mid-century cool.

Click on each image to enlarge it.





Okay, I’ll stop now, because I know you’re just dying to see more pictures (which I have yet to take!) .  More soon . . .

Thanks for reading,

More Inspiration from You

Katie R., a long-time customer,  sent these photos of her Chartreuse & co treasures in her home.

Click on image to enlarge:

Picture 1: The pop of blue from the candles and the pitcher draw your eye to the buffet-top vignette.

Picture 2:  I love using pretty little chairs like this in halls and on landings.  They are so welcoming and so pretty.  And, to me, a lovely chair is a piece of useful sculpture.

Picture 3:  Just love the playful placement of these frames and mirrors.  Design tip:  Always have fun with your decorating!

Gotta Love Good Press!

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , , on February 21, 2012| 2 Comments »

Have you seen Flea Market Style magazine? I knew I would love it when their first ever issue (just a year or so ago) featured a map of the USA with all the best huge flea market/vintage sales in the country. I just wanted to jump in the Suburban and hit every one of them!

And how do they follow such a trove of information? Why, by listing all the best ‘occasional sales’ in the USA by state. Grab your copy, your GPS, and hit the road.

Check out p. 14 for Chartreuse & co!
