It was a busy weekend around here - I headed back to Port Costa to the last day of Wendy Addison's Open House and treated myself (and my daughter) to some lovelies... I added the bird on the snowball and the sweet snail (who knew a snail could be so cute) to my mushroom group in my family room.
I also got some glittery little leaves and acorns on wires to put somewhere (not sure yet) and I got Meg THIS cool "chandelier" that I've had my eye on for some time - it goes perfectly in her new dreamy room.
Here it is with her "dream" letters AND we put up tulle on her ceiling, swagged across diagonally in both direction - it looks really sweet. It's coming together ...
This is a little inspiration board by her bed - she'll be getting a big one to go over a desk (which we still need to get too).
And last, but not least, John and I headed down to Los Gatos to one of our FAVORITE shops - Anteo and found this great small chandelier for our teeny tiny entryway (hard to find ones that aren't too big - this one was just right and at a good price - also hard to find).
The real reason we went down there was to pick up this cool sign for our dining room, that I'd been thinking about since our last trek down there - it's vey fun!
Off to start the baking. I hit the grocery stores this morning - man - it's getting crazy out there already - everyone getting ready for their holiday feasts. I went out at 8am and I must say, everyone was so nice and in the Holiday Spirit!!
Merry Christmas!!!
Have a wonderful and blessed holiday flickr and blogging friend:)
Warm hugs coming your way and a thankful heart for meeting youuuu!!!

Oh my gosh I just love your style. It is so frenchy and shabby and rustic and fabulous. I would *love* to see pics of a whole room or your whole house, hee hee. I would bookmark it and return again and again I'm sure. You have fantastic taste!

I was in Wendy's Open studio 2 years ago and love it! I am envious of your being so close, and to Los Gatos too! I was born and raised in San Jose.
