Remnants of the Past 2012

 

I was excited to visit the show this year, we have not been to the last few shows and I wanted to see everyone.   My first stop as always was to see the boys at Atelier de Campagne.  Their booth was full of beautiful pieces as always.  Things were moving quickly so we stopped for a quick picture and then it was on with the show. 

Next stop- Junk Style design.  I have never seen them before and I fell for their style. It was a great mix of vintage pieces and one of my favorites vintage luggage.

 They also had some great bird cages, I almost caved and bought one but decided I should wait until things were finished here at home!

I loved that so many vendors used beautiful natural pieces in their displays, we saw so many nests and feathers mixed in with the pumpkins.

I love loved the display of vintage dress forms from The Seed Box antiques I have been searching for just the right one for my office and have not found her yet. 

Another amazing display from Kimberlee Edgar of Edgar and Edgar.  Oh my goodness it was all black and cream, it was really beautiful.  I wish I had taken more photos of her booth, it was full of people so it was a little hard and when I went back it was closed up for the night.  She did a really beautiful job.

We had a great time at the show as always I wish I was able to take more time and talk with everyone about their style, maybe during the next show.  I will have more inspiring booths for you in tomorrows post though.

Fossils {accessory trends}

While I was at the show in Atlanta I saw the most beautiful fossils everywhere and most were already sold.  Most of the showrooms used them in display or as the main accessories on their furnishings.  I fell in love!  I was very excited to pick up a few pieces this past week, which I am even more excited to share with you.  

 

I am sorry this photo is not better, these pieces were amazing!

Each of the the architectural fragments had bits of stone attached to them.

 

Loved this too!

 I picked up Smokey Quartz and Amethyst pieces, these are for sale in our flea market section of the shop.

 

Stop by the shop to see what we have been adding, I will be putting more on in the coming days.

Pheromone by Christopher Marley {giveaway}

 While I was in Atlanta at the show I had a chance to visit one of my favorite artists Pheromone by Christopher Marley.  His pieces are amazing and I have been using them for quite some time in different projects.  I have not seen him at a show for a while so I was very excited to get up to date and see his latest designs. 

I ordered several mineral pieces for a project that I am working on as well as some bugs and butterfly pieces to place here and there.  

  

The feathers are by far one of my new favorites!

 

I ordered a few of his books too- so I picked one up for you!
