Kicking back!

No matter what your idea of a relaxed home is there is nothing like this time of year when things finally wind down and you get to reconnect with family and friends, head outdoors and BREATHE... Some fun memories were probably created here... Even visitors without a weekend home have opted for the laid back vibe in their decor. We are enjoying helping clients create the home that is both kid and pet friendly and stylish at the same time. Above is just a sampling of the handmade pillows that are pouring in (and out) as everyone is adding a little summer to their homes.  Especially noted is their rich fabric and appealing price point. One of 2 antique wooden boats on stands also pictured makes a lasting statement on any console.  The canvas sturdy poofs look great and satisfy the need for extra seating. Many accessories available , like the antique fish pitchers, are great gifts when YOU are the lucky house guest. The antique wicker basket, above adds needed texture to any room while holding extra blankets or beach towels. The antique wood bowl on top is a great find as both a catch all on the counter and I use mine for salad.  When not in use the antique wood adds just the necessary warmth to modern furnishings.  We use our antique green bowls for everything ......when in my travels I see something my grandmother used for serving it always makes me feel nostalgic for those times.  I think these green bowls will do the same for my children. (Only 2 available) A similar cocktail table is available.... Check out the website HERE THE most comfortable linen sofa arrived this week and is ready for immediate delivery, (linen fish pillows are included) come pop a squat! Dreamy original art.... Just hung this week are these original vintage sailing race photographs....they make a great series and one can also stand alone in a smaller space. In RARE color these WOOL bathing suits are just back from the framer....adorable and definitely a conversation piece. I can't imagine wearing a bathing suit without LYCRA or how about WET WOOL mixed with SAND???? We have DOG PILLOWS!!  I also have a a weakness for that perfect grey shaded metal and love what they add to the relaxed home especially when they can become useful. Shown above with flip flops and sunscreen they are also wonderful beer and wine coolers and magazine bins. This antique tub is party size!  Filled with ice (or pool toys) you will have it forever ....it's STURDY!  The antique wooden mast rings have a modern feel when hung as wall art. The easiest way to warm up a room and make it feel complete is to add curtains. Our ready made window panel (samples above in burlap and linen)  add that simple relaxed feel. We are here to make it easy for you.  WAREHOUSE hours are MONDAY-SATURDAY 11-5:30. With business growing in leaps and bounds, I am expanding and renovating the shop. It is a dream to be able to double my footprint to 3200 square feet to allow me to showcase all the treasures I find and also to represent more artisans and unique pieces from around the world...... Upholstered furniture too! While in the process I am currently in a 7500 square feet warehouse 2 blocks away from the shop (315B Springfield Avenue) ...We are having so much fun creating vignettes, receiving shipments there and the relaxed vibe of everyone who is stopping by.....it's probably the available attached parking lot.   STOP IN! I will continue to share our progress with the project here, on Facebook and, of course INSTAGRAM   Warmest regards, Bonny  Please note delivery and shipping is available on all items EMAIL ME with any questions.
