Antiquing

There’s nothing more fun to me than browsing antique shops, just to see what I can find that catches my eye. So, I went back to two of the shops that Kat took me to last May, Bienvenue and Smith’s Antiques. I took a few shots to share with all of you since I know you enjoy it as much as I do. I loved this natural dried wreath with BELIEVE garland looped over it to look like peppermint candy. So pretty! This will get you in the Christmas spirit!

This pink and green combo is so pretty on the black rocker.

And of course, shells in glass always gets my attention.

A pretty toile pillow.

And I just loved this color combo with the shot of leopard print on the chair.

Blue and white dishes, so classic.

A black and white transferware platter was very pretty.

Does this look familiar?? Pricetag for only one was $350, it wasn’t even a pair. This one was about the same size as my pair. I know I got a great deal on mine!

A pretty rustic blue door.

A REAL zebra rug.

Victorian birdcage.

I am really liking these Regency iron and glass tables. Love the shape of this one……

And this console table. Love it!

This paint finish was pretty with the caning.

Bunnies always catch my eye. Lamp and pillow.

Dressmaker form, anyone? And how about that pretty chippy blue shutter in the back?

Love this old door.

And this tole platter.

Graceful furniture lines.

Alabaster lamps.

More furniture

Toile and some old iron fencing.

And I stopped by another place I spotted called Scavengers. They had a mix of old and new.

Pretty little table.

And these colors together were just yummy!
Hope you enjoyed the day of antiquing. I’ve got a busy week with cooking for Thanksgiving and enjoying our company, but I’ll come back and share my Thanksgiving table with you when I get it all figured out! I hope all of you will have a wonderful week of celebrating with your familes and eating some special food. Celebrate the season!

    I love that console table too. I would have to go back and get it because I'd be dreaming about it. haha. I like to mix Regency & Modern styles together. It is very soothing to me.

    I really like the peppermint garland – that’s so cute. I haven’t ever seen anything like that before. And I *really* like that pretty toile pillow. 🙂

    Hope you have a great Thanksgiving!

    How fun, love touring the shops with you! Love the Regency table, I will have to show hubby and see if he can whip one up for me, but I know he would rather just have an excuse to go to Destin. The color of the screen, reminds me of your day bed. Have a Happy Thanksgiving. Looking forward to seeing your table.
