...I am really loving blue and green right now...just ordered some more of this...




to add some large 22-24" pillows for the sofa in the living room!  The pillows currently on the sofa are just temporary and a little on the small side....




...but I do want to hang these blue vintage bird prints that are in gilded bamboo frames...




...the blues really do go with each other...the fabric sample is a little off when viewed on the computer...




Oh...we were able to use the fireplace the other night...




Happy Wednesday!

A little blue...

Ruthie Sommers

I have always loved this image of green mixed with blue and a little light pink...I am playing with adding some light blue to my already green living room...and then a touch of some light pink!

Happy Tuesday!

On the search for lanterns...

via Pinterest

The above image is what I want the front entrance to look like...except I am going to go for a glossy black on the door...and I have been on the search for well-priced oversized lanterns like in the above and below images...

Country Living via Cottage & Vine


So I found this one...



Not the best picture and it really does not look as big as it actually is...but the lantern is around 35 inches in height and 13.5 inches in width...which gives me that oversized look.  

However,
I do not like the seeded glass (I prefer clear glass) and I love the mirrored back in the 1st image...so here is my plan:

1. Change out the seeded glass with clear glass at the local glass store.

2.  Change out the back glass with a mirror...at the same glass store.

We will see!!


...remember almost everything is 30% off in my little store at Gas Lamp...last day is today.  This week...the space will be re-painted as new items come in!


Happy Halloween!!

Hey Nashville! This week's estate sales...



...so I have not done one of these estate sale posts in a while...but may try to do them more regularly (every Thursday morning) again....

...we will start our estate sale planning in Belle Meade...with this sale by Anchor Estate Sales (don't know them as well as the other estate sale companies yet...) however, the above vintage chandelier is something I will have my eyes on!  Gorgeous!

...also worth looking further at are these pieces above...think they will look fabulous framed or even just as is...

...and this oversized vintage mirror might be worth checking out?

...love decorating with mirrors!

To one of my favorite estate sale companies...Dogwood Estate Sales...


Wow...that side table!

Sorry...could not get the pictures to rotate...

...and if your house needs a touch of glamour...this estate sale has several chandeliers to help add that touch...


...and I adore mirrors...love this one below!
