White Wednesday~

I apologize for not being consistent with 'White Wednesday'. So with the weather being too cold outside to be shopping and doing what I need to do to prepare for Christmas...I thought this would be a good time to join in the fun. It's too warm and cozy in my house to not want to indulge in today's 'White'.
Here's a few pics of my home in 'White' dressed for the Holidays!
Enjoy and stay warm~

White Wednesday~

My White Wednesday consists of what I see when I visit other antique shops, shows, and open houses. I will features talents like Judy Hill, Joyce Shillings, Leftovers, and Past Time. It's always an inspiration to me when I can go back to the photos of such great design and incorporate them into my own home. May you be inspired today and everyday to go white.

"New" Shop Tour~

Today, I had the pleasure of visiting a new antiques shop in Victoria.
Past Time is a lovely little shop that just opened it's doors about a month ago. The name of this store says it all because the minute you walk in the door you literally are taken back in time. Plus, with the soft music playing in the background you are instantly at peace. The owner of this shop full of eye candy is Linda Gregory who is not new to the antiques business. Linda also sets up at La Bahia every Spring and Fall. She has a wonderful eye for putting together the most gorgeous displays and vignettes. I spent the whole morning there with Linda who is the sweetest and most genuine person you will ever meet. I was introduced to Linda thru my good friend Joyce Shillings who also has a special talent in creativeness and decorating. So, if you are ever in the Victoria area, stop by and check out this little slice of heaven!
I'll just let the pictures speak for themselves. Enjoy!

Past Time specializes in Shabby Chic Antiques, Linen Slip Covers (Linda makes herself), Personalized Monogramming, Jewelry and Gifts.

White Wednesday~

This week's White Wednesday consists of a mix of textures, colors, and styles. Decorating with "White" can go from Shabby Chic to Traditional Vintage. With so many shades of white, mixing it up with cream and taupe and hints of black are just one of my favorite combinations.
Here's a collection of some pics from the past. White "Chippy" column~

So, what are your favorite combos?
