Gabby Home

I cam across a new furniture line yesterday that I love. Gabby Home is based in my home state of Alabama. They have chic antique reproductions, as well as, one of kind antique pieces. It has a very clean lined look, and would mix in well with a variety of styles. Below are some of my favorite images from their website, GabbyHome.com.

Do It Yourself Lamps, Sorta

Here is a little home project for a great pair of lamps. Look for a pair of old stairwell balusters, and have a local lamp shop wire them for you. The pair of balusters below, I found on Etsy for $17.00 for the pair! It usually cost between $35-50.00 to have them wired. Last, but not least, a great looking lamp shade. This is where I would splurge a little. Depending on the size you need, shades can range from $45-105.00 each. Lux Lampshades have gorgeous lamp shades. So for a little over $100.00 each, you can have a pair of one of kind lamps!

I Am Loving Skirted Console Tables!

I am so into skirted console tables right now!  I think it has something to do with my southern roots.  Every house I grew up in, or frequented had a skirted table.  Typically most skirted tables are round, but the rectangular console is a new spin on a classic.  I posted a few of my favorites below...is it just a coincidence that Palmer Weiss and Phoebe Howard are featured!  I have asked Paul, my boyfriend, to build me a base, and then I have recruited my mom to make the skirt!  I cannot wait.  It is either going to go in my living room, or dining room...not sure yet?

I love the graphic David Hicks fabric in this Palmer Weiss photograph.  I also love the the turquoise gourd lamp!  
These tables are also great for hiding junk.  Our new house could have a little more storage, so this is a perfect solution.  I love the thick grosgrain trim that creates the Greek key detail.  
I remember the first time I saw the above entry way.  It was in Domino...tear.  Palmer Weiss was featured as an up and coming designer.  Look at her now!  Famous!
The perfect Phoebe Howard.  Refined and classic.  I am a huge fan of antique Windsor chairs.  They are such a piece of Americana!
This is an example of a more formal skirted table.  The box pleating is beautiful, especially the silk banding at the bottom.
This photograph really caught my eye.  What a great idea for a dining room table.  Especially f you are on a budget.  It is tailored and perfect for a growing family.  If your fabric is pre-washed, just throw it in the washer and dryer, viola!

J. Crew...Amazing!

I am in love with J. Crew's new collection!  My shopping bag is full, and I want to add more!  It is such a great mix of classic, eclectic, and a hint of bohemian.  I know I usually post about interiors, but I am a lover of all things beautiful...and this was to fantastic not to mention!  I posted a FEW of my favorites below.  I am going get in soooo much trouble!

The Ultimate Indulgence

Leontine Linens in New Orleans is the most amazing linen and monogram boutique in the world. The attention to detail on every monogram is truly amazing. It is so reminiscent of the beautiful antique linens that are becoming much harder to find. I posted a few of my favorites. Is it bad that I now want to monogram everything that is fabric in my house?

Score!

Check out my new purchase! I love it! Thanks to Etsy my sofa will now have a little more sass! It was totally affordable! Madeline Weinrib...way out of my price range!

I am obsessed with Bobo Intriguing Objects!

I am totally obsessed with Bobo Intriguing Objects! They have such a unique perspective! It is antique and bohemian, but there is also something classic about their pieces, too! I have posted just a few of my favorite things. Enjoy!

Magpie Madness!

So, I was flipping through the latest Anthropologie catalogue and I stumbled upon this! It is called the Magpie Chandelier, and so AMAZING! It is not on Anthropologie's website yet, but I found this pic on Magpie's website. It is like a completely chic arts and crafts project, done RIGHT! Magpie is a South African company, and they have won awards for their whimsical and bold chandeliers! Love, love, love!

Perch...fly on over and check it out!

I have fallen for Perch in New Orleans, LA. They have a great website and super fun blog! I just picked a few of the things that caught my eye...there are too many to choose! This chandelier is one of the fab items that grabbed me. I can totally see it in an all white room, soooo dramatic!

And how fun is this bull?! I have an avid hunter for a boyfriend...lots of deer heads in our home, yikes...but this is much more animal friendly! And whimsical to boot!

There is something about Lucite...I love love love this chair. I NEED it for MY vanity!

Perch has a beautiful line of butterflies, as well. Striking alternative to the standard oil painting. I am so lucky to live only 3 hours from this great design boutique! I can't wait to visit them! Jazz fest does start this weekend...hmmmm, road trip anyone?

Have a great weekend everyone!
