Browse how GOOD it feels here!

Be inspired, along with me~I never tire of the ambience, the colors, the creativity here~I want to be in each space, absorbing the mood~We know it's not always easy when you're in the shop, so I'm glad you have a little time to do it now~

Calm down, listen to the great music we play that many of you comment on~

(Today, we'll be enjoying Raul Malo, Amy Winehouse, Eva Cassidy, and but of course - our favorite Putumayo mixes.)

The little 'boo' (and other) signs are handmade on heavy cardstock ($3.95).

Makes you stop for a moment, doesn't it?

Our back courtyard was bathed in blue skies and bright sun yesterday~

Can you see how the lighting has changed with the new season?

I promise to let you know our heirloom pumpkin varieties, many of you have asked. I left the list in the shop.

Lots of pieces for entertaining inspiration. You don't have to have company to use special pieces like these, do you? Every day is special~I love domes of all kinds (the hint of a promise of what's inside?)

Am I as stubborn as this photo? It doesn't want to display correctly here, but I'm including it anyway~

Our OCTOBER Market is open full days today through this Sunday (hours on upper right sidebar). Thank you, TERESA

More OCTOBER 2010 MARKET~

It's going to be a gorgeous fall day here! I'm finally showing you one of our newly upholstered pieces - I keep thinking I'll get some shots in the wonderful Atelier daylight - but it hasn't happened!
So, here she is in wonderful, romantic evening light. This chair is done up in wonderful creamy matelasse', original wood trim and a matching pillow~

Complete with nailhead trim~She's waiting right inside the Atelier entrance to welcome you~

Our lower level entry welcomes you with a chair, too - all in warm grays and whites~

A full shot of that area, with Stephanie's pieces on the back/left.

Sit a minute and read what some of the Great Operas are all about~

We display and decor our back courtyard all year long - it's right outside the lower level PORCH entry~
Enjoy the day, and we look forward to seeing you here, or at the shop - TERESA

OCTOBER 2010 Market Preview

The Sunday Load 10-3, and GETTING READY FOR OPENING!

Some amazing color to start today's post~ A simple orange tin tub and marigold pot - eh voila! Feels pretty good, doesn't it?
A full load again yesterday~

Lots of 'small' stuff, like these great pillows (they'll be $7.95 each)There won't be time to do much to these pieces - but I think you'll love this sewing stand the way it is~

Straight out of the house, full of sewing supplies and treasures~

Fun fun fun

You'll see another post today, detailing newly upholstered pieces arriving and more - for our OCTOBER Market, opening this week (days/hours above/on right). See you later! ~TERESA
