Scott’s Antique Market

 VS1509

Happy Father's Day to all you loving and doting Dad's! Today we celebrate YOU and the joys of Fatherhood. You are our strength and our ROCK!!!! We love you!!!!  

Yesterday my hubby was sweet and kind enough to keep the kiddies while my dear friend Suzanne and I drove up to Atlanta to attend Scott's Antique Market which is held the second weekend of every month. Over the years I've purchased several gorgeous pieces of furntiure and colletables from Scott's. This place is truly an antique lovers paradise!!! This was my girlfriend Suzanne's first time attending Scott's and we had HOURS of fun together!

I found this darling little piece for a BARGIN! It's kid size and it has a little tin wash basin in the middle and a little hook rack.  Im going to use it in the playroom for the kiddies. I was thinking Vivi could play with it and use it to bathe her dollies in. I got it half off! YIPPEE!!!!!!!

Late this summer I am starting a project of "re-doing" Grant's big boy room in a vintage nautical theme. My friend Suzanne who is an interior designer suggest I dont do the obvious "red, white, and blue" and do more neutral tones of sand, linen, seafoam greens, aqua, blue, and a mixuture of orange and gold yellows. I LOVE the idea!!! Im going to purchase twin beds and do simple bed coverings of washable matelasse coverlet, stripe ticking window treatments, and accessories that are vintage and vintage inspired. Lookie at what I bought yesterday for his room! Sooo cute and they match his wardrobe PERFECT!

Lastly, I want to dedicate this post to my beloved Alli. My husband and I had to put our sweet girl to rest this past Friday. She has lived a long and wonderful 16 years. She has brought so much unconditional love and happiness to my life. I purchased her when I was 20 years old and she has journeyed with me thru the up's and down's of my life. She will always be in my heart and will be deeply missed.

Hugs & Kisses to you all! Have a wonderful Father's Day & week!

XOXO,
