I didn't make it to Antiques In Old Town after all!!!!

I really tried to get there!!! Really, I did!!! I picked up my friend, Jackie & headed that way! It was raining so very hard & the traffic was terrible & I accidentally got off at the wrong exit. I didn't even realize it until I had gone about 30 miles!!!lol We still had a great time, though. We ended up shopping in Conyers & Covington. I bought a beautiful "Gone With the Wind" lamp at Churchill Antiques in Covington. It's pink and beautiful & I got a great price!!! The next morning my son came over at 8 a.m. to go with me to Antiques In Old Town. We decided it was just too dangerous to drive that far with all the storms coming through. It rained all day. It was just a good day to stay inside....so that's exactly what I did!!! I hate that I missed the spring open house but I will be going there soon to see what is left!!! Cheryl and the other girls there are always putting new treasures in their booths so maybe I will get something very special!!!lol

THIS IS WHERE I WILL BE TOMORROW!!!!

TOMORROW IS THE SPRING OPEN HOUSE AT "ANTIQUES IN OLD TOWN" IN LILBURN, GA. I CAN'T WAIT!!! I WILL SEE MY FRIENDS CHERYL AND ROWANN. HERE ARE SOME PICTURES I TOOK OF CHERYL'S BEAUTIFUL BOOTH THE LAST TIME I WAS THERE. SHE REALLY KNOWS HOW TO DECORATE, DOESN'T SHE????

I love making mosaics! I try to stay in the same color scheme when putting it together. My theme for this one is "Pretty & Romantic Things", Brooklyn being the prettiest thing!!!lol My favorite thing to do when it comes to decorating, is making vignettes. My least favorite thing....hanging pictures!!! I really don't have an eye for doing this! Behind everyone of my pictures you will find at least 3 holes!!!(just ask my hubby!!!)LOL

I was just looking at some of my pictures and came across the ones of this blue vintage prom dress.

It's just the sweetest prom dress, ever! I love it! I wonder about the girl who wore it to the prom...was she a blonde, brunette or redhead??? What kind of flowers did her date give her.... & what did he look like???? Oh, and of course I wonder how she wore her hair!! What kind of shoes did she wear & did she carry a little evening purse??? These are just some of the questions I have in my mind when I look at this gorgeous dress! I would love to see a picture of her all decked out!!

I was blown away by all the dress forms that Dillard's was selling! The prices were unbelievable! I would have bought more but my car wouldn't hold anymore! I hope to start decorating them soon so stay tuned for pictures!
