New This Week


In my Etsy Shop I’ve just loaded the first of four or seven sets of small fabric flowers for your own projects, a large, vintage teddy bear from England and some shabby wonderful hardware. Speaking of Shabby wonderful, I think it fitting to mention that Shabby Chic closed it’s doors and operations this Spring. Rachel Ashwell continues to influence design, despite negative comments left on Amazon regarding her very far-reaching style. She continues to influence my cleaning up of space and adding tons of flowers. Her Simply Shabby Chic will continue to be available at Target and I think that perhaps one of her original stores is still open in California.
That said, I think I still prefer to mix in my own creepy things with the look, just to keep things interesting. How long can you stare at just a white sofa and a crystal chandelier, anyway? There needs to be a spider in my mix.
P.S. If you dig them, please grab some flowers: I've listed them @ 10 for 2.99 + 2.00 shipping, and there are plenty tp go around. I keep wiring them to random things. Please note that they are commercially made, not handmade. They are pretty cute.
