Vintage Fixtures are Chic...and so is Kelly
I just adore this photo of Kelly Wearstler from her blog, my vibe my life. Shopping for gorgeous vintage light fixtures in a pink sweater and heels? This is nothing short of fabulous...
Enjoy the weekend, I hope there's sunshine where you are!

If you find yourself in sunny Southern California this weekend or subsequent weekends in May, don't miss these antique markets. All three are terrific shows. Any suggestions on other antique shops or markets that are 'must-see' in SoCal?

Buy this House for $1
Every once in a while I like to share photos of a great 'antique' home that I've visited or read about. This weekend I was visiting my sister and picked up a copy of This Old House Magazine. Amy herself lives in an old house, a charming farmhouse built in the 1880's. If you haven't read the magazine, the last page showcases a home that needs 'saving'. This month, a Greek Revival-style house that pre-dates the Civil War is being sold for $1, but needs to be moved from it's present location outside Indianapolis. I can imagine this place in a charming beach town with vintage bicycles in the drive next to a hedge of hydrangeas. The staircase alone is makes me want to research the cost of moving a whole house. Anyone know?
