interior design therapy

I've recently moved into a new home w/ my fiance' and I must admit, we are totally obsessed with home decor. Pottery Barn, West Elm, flea markets and thrift stores are a few favorite spots of ours we enjoy shopping. The spaces above are ever so' inspiring.

fancy parties...

I've never been one to throw fabulous, fancy parties but these quirky yet ever so chic centerpiece ideas are beyond amazing...maybe I will continue with the idea of hosting a back yard BBQ party...for Labor Day perhaps.

Monday Thought...

It looks like I will finally be able to purchase a new car soon. I took up a part time gig to help 'fund' my additional needs, retail splurges & travel habits :) Also, I am thinking about creating an online antique furniture shop. However, I am concerned about the shipping & pick-up issue. Will I be limited to local pick-ups only? Will shipping tremendously large furniture, be affordable for my customers?!? In the meantime, I'm going to do more research and If all goes well, hopefully I could get everything up & running by October/November...just in time for the HOLIDAYS!

If you have any advice on starting an online furniture store, please send me a message. I will love to get some insider's advice before I jump into it :)
