A Bushel and a Peck

ALT {Decades}

I am back from the most incredible conference.

The Altitude Design Summit {ALT} was even more incredible than I could have imagined (when does that happen?).

As I am getting back into the routine of home, meals, laundry, school, business..I wanted to take another day to process my thoughts before I tell you all about it.

I hope you will forgive the slight delay but I thought I would appease you with a little eye candy from  my day of thrifting after ALT.

The conference officially ended on Friday night or early Saturday morning:-).

Saturday morning I met up with my good friend Christy and my new friend Michelle.

We headed out to some of the local thrift stores.

Be still my beating heart when we arrived at Decades.

Serious.  We are heading back to Utah for a ski package I won while at ALT...HELLO!!  My FOR SURE stop will be at Decades....this time with a car!!!

I was in heaven.  Pure heaven.  I felt so overwhelmed and could have spent hours in there.

Because I love you guys so much I even picked up two dresses to giveaway on my blog!

One winner will receive both dresses.  

Just leave a comment on this post and I will reveal the winner on Wednesday.

********************************************

I would also like to reveal the winner The She Art Workshop.

Congratulations West Coast Nester!!

Email me your info and I will pass it along to Christy.

Thank you Christy for offering such an awesome giveaway!

See you all on Wednesday for the details about ALT.

 

Over Here Typing

I am one of the guest bloggers that you will find over at the Flea Market Style blog over the next few months.

If you are a fan of Flea Market Style Magazine (the first one blew me away) you will want to become a follower of the blog too.

Head on over and tell me what vintage find is your favorite to add to photos!

 

We Have A Bed...I Think

When I am in need of a flea market fix I go immediately to The Barn here in Castle Rock.

It is literally an old barn.

Each old stall is a shop.

Beautiful shops.  

Shops full of vintage treasures and many new things too.

These women are gifted in their styling abilities.

I love going in there...it is my Cheers....everyone knows my name:-)

The best part is that I can tell the girls what I am looking for and if they don't have it they will be on the look out.

We have not had a bed since...well.....forever.  

We have the frame, mattress etc but not a bed.

I have been looking for MONTHS for a grey old door and this week I found one!!!!

One of the girls at The Barn had a perfect grey one just for me.

Kelly brought it home and Viola.......a bed (at least I am telling myself that it is one).

I love it and it looks perfect against the Ralph Lauren Crab Apple walls and my linen bedding (Carolyn Westbrook).  

The best part is that my "bed" cost us $45:-)

What is your last amazing vintage find??

*************

Side note....my room is not always this picked up.  I would like to brag that it has been clean for two weeks now but the weeks before that we were stepping over things and there were piles everywhere.

When a new line comes out the house goes downhill fast...but for now...right now...this room is clean:-)

I will be showing you the other side of the room soon.  That is where I read next to the fireplace:-) My favorite spot!!
