Well, thank you for all your sweet comments and emails! You all are truly darlings! And remember a few posts ago, how I was telling you I am sorta loving more dark stuff along with shabby white stuff? I really am venturing to more shops now. So today, I figured it was time to visit a new store I hadn't been to. And after I hit a few Shabby Estate Sales (sooo tickled with some goodies I found), I headed to this GRAND FRENCH CHIC store! I'd love to call it a boutique, but this store was MASSIVE! LOL With a HUGE selection of rustic goodies, charming delights and such exquisite garden architectural pieces! Oh my word! One step into this warm and cozy store, rich pumpkin vanilla lavender scents filled the air! I swear I never wanted to leave! LOL And their garden shabby stuff? Well the pictures below speak volumes! I swear I am just no good at making decisions about what to buy..LOL...so I am heading back there with my sweet mom! LOL I was soo laughing at myself because I swore to myself I'd never buy candles again, for fear that our two lil boys (monsters-LOL) might burn our house down! LOL But I soooooo LOOOOVE these candles! They are just FABULOUS!!!!!!! And oh my, all the china and place settings! Just sooo great for the upcoming holidays. I loooove the rich oranges and yellows but also ADORE the ALL WHITE stuff! I am a total "thick chunky Italian plates and cups" kinda girl! I loooove things really RUSTIC and chippy and not too delicate! LOL Sooo the stuff they offered was just fantastically darling! I also LOOOOVE the Tracy Porter goodies they had too! Just awesome! Also TONS of stuff from here. SO here are some pics to share with you. Beware, they are HUGE! LOL Just open with caution. LOL I just cannot wait to go back there and shop my lil heart out! :) Smoochies!

OH YUM! Wow, wish I could have been there shopping with you!!! Hey, I'm kind of thinking about collecting the brown toile-looking china-- mix & match pieces. I found one at plate a flea market & think they would go good with some old white china I already have. Have you seen that stuff? Any thoughts?
