7 Things that TOTALLY made my Week!

Drumroll please...
 
 
Steve and Jill McKenzie were so awesome to not only share with me in the success of my first ever show house, but also to present me with this incredible cotton canvas bag made from his own signature fabric!  You've go to stop by their showroom if you live in or near the Atlanta area!


I like Nathan Turner on Bravo's Million Dollar Decorator!  He's the hilarious good friend of one of my favorite designers, Mary McDonald.  It is such a great book to have!  Stay posted for my upcoming book review.  This book can also be found at Steve McKenzie's, where they have this and many more books you'll want to snatch up and take home!
 

 
Gillian and I were perusing TJ Maxx looking for a zippered shoulder bag that I can wear across the body for my trip to Paris next week, when while standing in line we spotted this incredible gift wrap!  I love wrapping paper and will buy it when something great catches my eye!  And for only $2.99, are you kidding me!  They knew I was coming!

 
Well, I wanted a Burberry trench, but alas this one from Old Navy will have to do!  Hey, I'm not complaining!  It looks good on me, you would never think it was from Old Navy (as I tend to make everything look expensive), and it was $34.99 with an additional 30% off!  I am cracking myself up!  But you know I really believe that, right? LOL, for real!
 
 
I've not been a big shopper of Ulta until one day I just happened to saunter in.  Yes, saunter!  You can picture that, yes?  Anyhoo, last summer I decided I would step out and try a red nail polish.  Oh my Lord, Pete went banannas!  So, I went back and bought another bottle, as well as a bright red lip (I've been practicing wearing it, as it kind of requires a bit of maintenance), and a popping red gloss.  I thought how tres chic it would be for Paris, yes?

 
While in Ikea, I spotted these succulents for like $2.99 and decided, hey for that price, if I kill 'em; oh well!  I bought three and I'm praying that I can do right by them!

 
This is the new do I just got yesterday!  Very rarely do I have those moments where I get out of the stylist chair and not feel like I've got to make some sort of tweak or adjustment to what she's done.  This time she outdid herself because I felt like Alicia Keys, "This Girl is on Fire"!  Man I hated to go to sleep!  Well, of course I had to tie the sides down with my little wrap to make sure the sides and the back laid smoothly this morning, but that did mean some of the rest got a bit flattened out!  I hope I can keep this going at least until my next visit!

 
This quote has to be for someone out there!  It's great to have potential and even for others to acknowledge that potential, but then what?
 
Make it AMAZING!

A Day At The Market!

What a very cold and blustery day it was to head out to the monthly Scott's Antiques Market here in Atlanta!  My good friend Tavia, my daughter Gillian, and I spent a couple of hours in one of the smaller buildings checking out the wares of the many vendors that travel from far and near.  There is so much to take in, but my six year old was up for the challenge and did very well! 


You need an imagination or a Restoration Hardware catalog to make the most of this piece!


This would definitely be used as a bar!  Really liking the metal and wood rustic quality of this piece!


Garden stools are always nice to have around to use as extra seating or an accent table.


Oh my gosh!  I so loved these lamps!  Of course, I would refinish them, but they are so cool!


Lovely chair!


When I saw this table, all I could think about was "The Gordon's Fisherman"!  I know, I know!


What is it with tortoise shells right now?  These were actually placed outside, on a roof where ants and the sun bleached them to this white-wash look!


I thought a pair of these would be really cool!


This sideboard sold for $695!


Antlers everywhere!


I bought a couple of coral fans to be used...I don't know how or where yet, but I'm positive I will think of something!


This was my absolute favorite find of the day!  A 1930's martini and pitcher set with tray selling for $9500!  I was in love! 


This is an extraordinary piece!  It was sold and getting ready to be removed from the floor by the buyer!  There was no other piece like it!


1932 vintage Mickey Mouse rocker selling for $1250


English Chesterfield sofa sold for $1695.  Model (Tavia), not included!


The shades of blue and turquoise in this space was incredible!


Always a fan of random objects!


The top of this table is phenomenal!  Such a gorgeous finish!


I adore teacups and saucers!


So lovely!


Beautiful turquoise!


Really great, heavy white porcelain pieces!


Well, we know how I feel about zebra!


Gillian makes her selections!


Time to head home!  It's very cold!  My eyes are tearing, but surprisingly enough my tooth is not hurting!  I have a feeling once I come down from the adrenaline high I'm on, it will throb!  Hope your weekend was all you wanted it to be!  Have an incredible week!

xo,
Rhonda

A Taste Of Atlanta...Bungalow Classic


My very best friend and I had such an amazing time out last week!  A little shopping at Bungalow Classic on Howell Mill Road and lunch at Carroll Street Cafe in Cabbagetown!  I tell ya, I love it when I hang with friends that get just as excited about design and all things beautiful, as I do!  Ah, it's like a really good nap!  LOL!!!  Refreshing and energizing!  Anyhoo, please stay a while and take a look at the lovely, gorgeous, wonderful, inspiring, and amazing furnishings, lighting, and accessories that can be found at Bungalow Classic.  The staff there is incredibly nice, helpful, and very knowledgeable!  If you're ever in the area, definitely stop in!  It will be sooo worth it!  You won't be disappointed!































































Hmm, I finished this posting in a nick of time!  My meds just wore off (tooth pain)!
Have a fantastic Friday!
Rhonda
