Well I'm finally back from amongst a sea of boxes and product!! I have missed everyone terribly, but I'm finally just about caught up and it feels good! I'm going to spare you pictures of all of the chaos that went on in my house over the last week and just show you some pretties instead. Starting with these amazing vintage French siphons...as I was unpacking them, I just started setting them down on the table, and afterwards thought they looked so pretty just all sitting there together...
The rest of my pictures involve what I bought for my own use. It's much funner to show you those pictures than the mess that went on for a few days over here (and I do mean mess)!
Love this vintage inspired bottle drying rack... I traded out the candlesticks that were on my dining room table and put this beauty there instead. Then I hung a bunch of white cups and creamers, some old some new, from it...
(you know how much I like taking pictures within a mirror...I just think it's more interesting than a straight on shot)
...then I went back and added snippets of rosemary from my garden to a few spots...to add a bit of a festive touch to things...
If anyone is interested in owning one of these gorgeous bottle racks, email me, I have one extra!
**Update: sold - thank you Jill!**
And, of course, the biggest purchase I made for myself, was this daybed. It now resides in my living room...I don't have a cushion for it yet, so I fashioned a temporary one out of some pillows and an old white sheet that I had...
Yep, that's bits of Christmas you see...slowly but surely I'm adding little touches here and there. The adorable little burlap stocking is something I picked up at the flea market. It came with the cutest little vintage photo embellishment...
I'll keep showing you photos as I work some of my shop product into my own home...because, after all, that's half the reason I got into all of this shop business in the first place...to get my hands on the goods :)
And the winner of the giveaway is Queen Bee!!! Email me your address and I will get your goodies right out to you! Thank you to everyone for participating in my giveaway...I cannot tell you how wonderful it was to get all of your lovely comments throughout the week as I was working...it just picked me up and kept me going! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU...
If you want another chance to win something from my shop, along with a ton of other incredible shops, sign up for my friend's event...
An Inspired Evening...she has an amazing evening planned and I for one wouldn't dream of missing it!!!
I am really looking forward to popping in on all of your blogs and seeing what you've been up too while I've been "gone." I've missed you girls!!! Happy week to everyone :)

I would love a bottle drying rack. I am headed to Kasey's on 12/5, can I just get it from you then? I would also love to "shop" your products...it would be so fun to see them in person! I look forward to meeting you...

Everything is gorgeous, Tracey. I too love the photos into mirrors, it really does give it so much more depth. Isn't it fun bringing "store products" into our homes and changing a room out? Beautiful photos, thanks for inspiring me (I'm in the middle of rearranging the master bdrm & needed a little lift here).
Happy night!
