There's a shop down in my favorite antiquing town that Ive never been able to get into. They have certain days and certain hrs and it seems Ive never been able to be there at the right time. I would look in the windows tho and drool. I love Victorian things and there were always so many delicious things Id spy thru the windows. Today finally I hit jackpot and they were open. I asked the lady if I might take some pictures to blog about and she agreed. I found out they have a blog too. Les Belles Antiques. http://lesbellesantiques.blogspot.com/
There's such beautiful little vignettes everywhere you look in this shop, even each couch has something to perk it up.
And what a great idea.
Several lamps there have fringed silk scarves tied and knotted over the
lamp shades. I don't know what the shades look like but I think if you
like Victorian, its a quick, cheap way to get the look without having
to buy new shades. Awesome idea!

This is what you see when you walk in, off to the right. I love this couch but then its purple, my color.

And this is what you see right now from the front door. Its like stepping back in time.
And I ♥ this light too......its so yummy.
Couldn't you just faint on this couch ? I have to get me one of these one day.
Everywhere you look in this shop is girly frilly things that I ♥. Look at how gorgeous this lighting is.
Look closely at this, yes
its a bit busy for my taste but its a lighted epergne and its
beautiful. This is victorian at its best but way too much for me today.
Still.....having one corner like this, I could handle. The colors are
so pretty.

Another one of the pretty
couches. Sigh..cant buy anything right now with this move pending. But oh how I want to when I
come here. Makes me feel like I'm in another time. If you get a chance to pop into this shop, do it. If you love this kind of thing, you will be in heaven browsing there.Maybe you will find a treasure you just cant live without.
Hey girl.
