This is my new favorite little "nook" in the living room,
thanks to my friend Amy (Maison Decor) for
giving me this awesome black toile slip covered wing back chair!
I love it!
Isn't it pretty?
This handmade throw goes perfectly!
I picked it up at a thrift shop for $3! Never used!
This painting of hangs above the chair.
My friend, Gloria Najecki, who is an
AMAZING Pet Portrait Artist
painted this picture of my Bengal, Myers.
A special gift flown in from Fort Myers, FL from my Dad.
Four years ago my little monster was hit by a car and killed.
Strangely it happened on my Dad's birthday.
I was completely crushed and still miss him.
Because of Gloria's ability to capture an animal's spirit in
her paintings, I get to enjoy my special kitty everyday!
Thank you Gloria!
I love boxes and have them all over the place in my home.
They make for great storage!
The top three are antique boxes that parts of machinery or tools came in.
The bottom one is an antique bread box, $5 at a yard sale.
I also tend to collect things that have to do with sewing,
hence the old wooden spools. To me, they are like little pieces of art!
I also have a small collection of pitchers.
Aren't they just darling?
This picture is of my Mom, she looks like a little doll, doesn't she?
Here is my collection of bowling pins,
sitting in a metal basket just outside the hearth.
I am planning on making over my fireplace/mantle at some point!
The iron was my Grandmother's and has always sat on the hearth.
The limestone frame was dug up steps from the ocean on a friend's property when they
were putting in a new tennis court, I think he was a little reluctant to let me keep it : )
My new favorite little nook!
