A Few of My Favorite Things

A fun day of shop-hopping to some of my favorite haunts - such a delight to see champagne buckets filled with greenery and golden ornaments - enough so to put even the Bah Humbugs among us in the holiday mood.

This was always a time of year that we filled the shop window with fabulous items collected over the year especially for our holiday windows. Oh how we loved enormous silvery entree domes, clean white ironstone, gilded architectural fragments and cherubs - a piled-high collection of our most special finds.

This year I'll resort to a virtual window and share some of my favorite things with you, minus greenery. I'm working to have more things posted for online shopping this weekend. So much to do, so little time! Must be the holidays!

I love Mid-Century! Tack Schmid's "Spanish Fly" egghead, Gunnary Cyren's iconic antelope, Fornasetti's whimsical recipe plate and classic architectural design espresso cup.

Who doesn't love an Abercrombie leather bulldog footstool, or the humble style of his carved folk art friend?

 Happy shopping, wherever you are! Wishing you all your favorite things - marilyn
