I completed the survey and LOVE the porcelains and florals. Well, to be honest, I LOVE every single thing on your site! Your site as well as your blog give me daily inspiration.
I entered the survey hoping this feedback helps you with ideas for your blog. So many of the items you sell are just beautiful. Difficult to chose one, but I do covet the linens as well as the silver pieces! Your selection is wonderful!
The survey is completed, I love the large nickel hurricanes, they bring a modern aspect to a traditional room. I am a huge Ralph Lauren fan, the modern accents help to update a traditional setting, while remaining timeless.
I love the blue foo dogs! I am on the beautiful Crystal Coast taking care of my parents and enjoying the sunshine after the snow. Relaxing this morning while reading your blog and shopping online!
I completed the survey and I absolutely cannot pick just one thing from the shop! But if I have to list some favorites, it would be the antique white foo dogs, the chunky ginger jars with lids, the silver pierced and etched planters, the wine holder planters, and the fiberstone planters. The monogrammed linens are incredible too! Thank you!
I responded to the survey and love any and all blue/white. The blue/white foo dogs are just wonderful! Any of the silver pieces would fit perfectly in my home!
I completed the survey! I love the monogrammed trays! Hope to get a nice walk in today when it warms up but have an ice pack on my knee right now:( Just finished reading Brooklyn (want to see movie), After You, & Boys in the Boat. Have a great weekend!
I just completed the survey . Thank you for asking us our opinions. I enjoy when you share a recipe . A few weeks back I made your pasta fagiole soup. It was delish!
Glad to share feedback via your survey. I always find creative design ideas tucked into each of your photos. Seven on Sunday is a favorite reading – nice introduction to other designers, bloggers and artists. On your site, many great items…the porcelains always catch my eye. ~ Melissa
I completed the survey. Thank you for giving us a voice.
I absolutely love the large antique brass gallery tray! It is such a great layering piece for my living room.
Enjoy your frequent blog posts. A favorite item in your shop is the grape urn but really there are many favorites. Your seven n Sunday brings many ideas from books to recipes to places I will never visit so keep sharing your inspiration. We are enjoying……
Today starts our renovation of a 1938 beach house that we just closed on yesterday on Amelia Island, FL. We’ve been living in it since September ’15 and are ready to put our stamp on it. Our colors will be blue and white and I look forward to purchasing some items from you when “the dust settles”!
Hi Tina,
I completed the survey! I love anything monogrammed on your shop site,,,among many other things too. I do have a book recommendation “The Art of Racing in the Rain” by Garth Stein. It’s a story written from a dog’s point of view. I can tell from your posts that you have a dog that is well loved and I think you may enjoy this read when you are snuggled in on a quite weekend. Thanks for the chance at the giveaway!
Love the Foo dogs and just about everything in the shop. I do like Seven on Sunday. I finished the survey and hope it helps you to continue to supply me wonderful ideas.! Can’t wait to watch the progress of your new home, I so enjoyed watching your current home go up, and being decorated
love your blog and swooning over the pretty’s in your shop. hope to purchase a silver obtainer for a engagement party I’m hosting for my sons best friend. think it will be fab in my foyer with white orchids in it.
I completed the survey. I am looking forward to sharing your journey as you build your new home. The inspiration pictures are wonderful. If you are looking for a good book read The Residence. It is about the staff that works for the first family in the White House. The commitment they show is great as are the stories of past first families.
That Palmetto Bluff location is just fabulous and I loved the video. I’m relaxing by the lake in Virginia, in the house, of course!! The water is cold, I assume, but the view is lovely.
Thank you for the opportunity to complete the survey. You have a fabulous collection of Blue and White porcelains..I am hooked. Channeling my inner Southern Belle(being from Virginia)…I love anything with a monogram. During the past few weeks we are binge watching HOMELAND and finished Grace and Frankie. Finished reading the Paris Wife.
I have completed the survey and want to tell you that I am dying for one of the handpainted Chinoiserie pillows! Also, some monogramed linen guest towels. So beautiful!
Choosing a favorite is not possible …but the silver containers and trays are very impressive as are all the ginger jars . I really could go on and on …
Cherry Blossom season will soon be here in Md/DC area . I’ve had my sites on that particular ginger jar for some time ! I’ve never seen one like the one you have in your shop.
Our visits to Washington have been numerous over the years, but trips during “cherry blossom” season make it seem quite a wonderland.
Well, my favorites in your shop would have to be the blue and white porcelains, but I also love the wood kitchen trays and dough bowls. The little blue foo dogs look so cute, so may have to find a spot for those. We have a low key weekend planned taking care of our 3 year old granddaughter tonight. We saw “The Revenent” last night. The cinematography and acting were amazing, although very violent at times. Couldn’t watch parts. Hope Leonardo finally wins his Oscar.
Tina, I completed your survey and hope my input is helpful. One thing I would like to mention is that I enjoy your recipes so keep them coming please. I like the porcelains,vases and jars in particular. Here in Virginia we are still dealing with snow as well, Sunday is suppose to be 60 so here’s hoping it goes away! I just saw a flock of robins so spring can’t be THAT far away can it?!
Hi
Tina,
Just finished your survey and it’s hard to choose a favorite but I do love all of your Tole products, which you don’t often see in stores. I am still waiting to receive an order I was billed for on Jan. 5th of this year. I will forward the voice to you and I hope you’ll let me know what happened. I would love to win the Foo dogs ! Best, Kathy
Completed survey. I love the medium floral arrangement in light blue container. Would go great with my new living room. but love all the tole products.
Love all the blue and white porcelain in your shop! I live in central Texas and it’s going to be in the 80s today. Just finished the survey. Thanks for an opportunity to voice our wants and needs.
Thank you for encouraging me to go back through your shop! Fabulous! There are several things I plan to,order soon. I love the role pagoda pieces and find them really distinctive in the market. I did notice that several things in the new section are mislabeled…..just a note from a friend.
First thing I did this Saturday morning here in Wisconsin is your survey. Thanks for the opportunity to share our shopping experience. We are getting our home on OCONOMOWOC Lake ready to go on the market in two weeks. The cherry blossoms from your shop will look beautiful in our grand foyer.
I love your blog.
Love all your products, especially the monogrammed napkins and mini-foo dogs! I also love hearing vacation recommendations! Just booked a stay at Palmetto Bluffs! Can’t wait to see it in person!
I completed the survey! I love, love your taste in your shop items! As I’m building my blue and white porcelain collection, I’m drawn to all your beautiful selections! And, I think it’s great that you photograph your shop items in your home! After taking my son for a haircut I think we’ll take a family walk in the snowy sunshine with the doggies!
Hello,
yes I entered the survey,, this weekend we are getting the storm which has came over the Atlantic to Ireland here, gales and snow .. so I am just staying indoors and reading your blog, and I follow you also on Pinterest.. My favourite piece is the wonderful Trellis
& Bird Rectangular Tray,, what a lovely little piece to adorn any coffee table or dining table… I do have others but really they are to numerous to mention… have a lovely weekend…..
Slan.
Filled out the survey and have to say that the hand painted chinoiserie pillows are my absolute favorite item in the store! However, I love the tole mirrors, the porcelain, etc!
My pleasure completing the survey. There are so many things I love on the site! My favorites are probably the porcelains and boxwoods. And I always carry my Annabel Ingall tote bag.
I, too, love John Grisham books and am reading The King of Torts now!
I’ve completed the survey & entering chance to win the Blue & White! I love your candles too and I’ve ordered the Tole planter & love it. It’s beautiful in person! Always enjoy reading your blog & can’t wait to join your journey on building your new retreat in Palmetto Bluff!
Love your selection of lamps and porcelains. I hope to order soon the tonal bird lamp. Living in AZ, it is difficult to find such beautiful accessories for my home. I enjoy reading your blog…thank you for bringing us such beauty!
I, too, have completed your survey and I hope that my enthusiastic comments have helped you. Yur shop has so many beautiful and well priced things that it is hard to pick but I think the blue and white ginger jars are my favorite I would love to see more garden stools for this coming summer at my house in Duxbury MA. Thanks, also, for your recipes. I think you missed your calling and should be giving us recipes as often as possible also.
Just finished the survey with my pleasure. Your store is unique, lovely, enchanting and creative.
You have just the right touch.
I love your porcelains and silver. I purchased one of your beautiful lamps and love it.
Thank you for making our homes lovely.
Just completed the survey. As always my favorites are the large blue and white jars. Love your kitchen items . I have had the pleasure of making your recipes and am always inspired by your pics when you entertain, even if its just for a family night in. Have a lovely weekend, and stay warm. Hugs to Teddy.
Thank you, Tina, for being concerned about your readers. I love that you’re not afraid to express your own ideas, both decorating and personal! l filled out the survey and love the needlepoint pillows, especially the red chinoiserie ladies.
I completed the survey, and forgive me – mine will be the long-winded one! Thank you for the opportunity to offer feedback. One unique quality about your shop is that each item has your personal touch and approval, and I value that. I love any and all items for tabletop, serving, entertaining! BTW, it’s a beautiful sunny weekend in the South! Can’t wait to see your new home plans unfold!
I am of course obsessed with all of the blue and white! I am on a mission to get one of the planters!! I am just starting to collect so I am constantly creating a wish list off of your site! Loving the foo dogs!
THE CHINOISERIE MIRRORS ARE TO DIE FOR!!! I Have seen mirrors, but boy oh boy, these are the winners….. I completed the survey… TAKING MY DAUGHTER BACK TO THE UNIVERSITY OF DELAWARE. She has been home since december 19th. T his is the longest break in history!!!!
I took the survey ! Thank you for giving us an opportunity to give you feedback. I love love love your blog and reading about all your wonderful finds and everyday life. I love your blue and white porcelains and anything monogrammed. I am also very excited to be along for the ride on your new project in Palmetto bluff because that is where we are also thinking of purchasing! Your blog is a bright spot in my day akways
Took your survey & enjoy your shop. Because of my early exposure to and lifelong love of blue and white porcelain, I am always browsing. I do not shop at stores. Your site is one of the very few stores I follow.
Beautiful day in North Carolina! I finished the survey, and hope you get great and usable feedback. My faves are definitely your porcelains and the beautiful pictures of your home. I also enjoy your recommendations for design books. I have purchased several 🙂
I will always love anything blue and white! I want to get some of your beautiful silver pieces, especially a small or mid-size planter for an orchid. I also love your Foo Dogs!
Friday evening, a girlfriend and I went to Sarasota to see a Dancing With The Stars performance! It was wonderful and a great evening to share with a girlfriend! Our husbands were together and did something else in Naples, Florida.
Next week, my husband and I are attending a wedding in Savannah, Georgia. That should be fun; the son of our very dear friend is getting married. We don’t get to see our friends too often, but we’re always there for each other. Two years ago, our son lost his home to an EF- 4 tornado in Washington, Illinois and our friend was very generous to our son and his young family. True friends are difficult to find in today’s mobile society.
I didn’t mean to go into all that, but as you can imagine, the tornado and its effects will always remind me of how precious life really is!
Just finished the survey. Good questions. love the European Home items (Have several). I also have porcelains and silver which I love. The pillows are great too. Love my purchase.
Love all of the blue and white porcelain that I have purchased from you and really liked my large dough box and dog statue Have purchased gifts from your shop and they were always very well received The idea of not having to run all over town to shop
Today is laundry day, I know, not exciting. However, I’m also planning a get away trip to Switzerland and Austria in early April with my husband and 15 year old daughter, (last child of four) who will turn 16 on the day we arrive in Geneva, so I’m planning a spa day for her, as well. After I filled out your survey, I headed to your shop and still love most the colored porcelains. Now back to the laundry…. 🙂
It is so hard to choose a favorite. You have impeccable taste. My first purchase will be a monogrammed tray. Love all things Asian too….my daughters are from China so we love to throw in a little Asian flair here and there in our home. My favorite thing right now is the extra large bamboo lantern. I just wish I had a place to put it!! Thank you for sharing your talents.
Happy Saturday! I love the Porcelines, the pillows, the lighting. Awe heck, I love it all! I completed your survey as I spend my Saturday watching my 7 month old grandson.
I entered
I like lots from your shop.
Two favorites are your fishbowls and your bell lights..all the old world kitchen items.
Not doing anything exciting except SAG awards tonight, Sunday dinner tomorrow and shopping for some super bowl items. Planning my big bash. I might hit antique row as it is beautiful in Florida..cool for us.
Beautiful, inspirational and needed in this modern trend. It warms much heart. Best read is anything by Joel Rosenberg. The Ayshwitz Escape, a historical fiction. It’s 76 degrees today in Texas and after pedicure I’m going to my lake house to relax!God’s Blessings to you
You have quite a following in Columbus, Ohio as well…. I am over the moon in love with my chinoiserie lamp. I love the monogrammed linens as well. I plan to enjoy beautiful sunshine today, Rare in Ohio… Survey complete!
I gladly filled out the survey as I hope that you continue to do this blog for a long time to come. I cannot wait to read it every morning, as it is the first thing I do. Keep up the fantastic work that you are doing, I know it is not easy as you have so much on your plate, and I love the new Palmetto
project and cannot wait to see the updates. Take care.
Good morning! I have completed your survey. I adore the Blue and White porcelains and have enjoyed each piece I have purchased from your shop. My favorite is my recent purchase of the bird ginger jar with foo dog on too. So pretty! Have a great day!
How wonderful that you are checking in with your fans on what makes us swoon! Survey completed! Love the monogram napkins and the Isabella tote (small). Could not figure out what color each bag was though.
Just completed the survey! My absolute favorites from your shop are the blue and white porcelains and your huge selection of lamps! I would love a pair of the small foo dogs to use as bookends, just can’t decide between blue or green! We are having fantastic weather this weekend so I’ll be on the patio enjoying the beautiful days.
The survey was very easy to use and I appreciate your efforts to find out what your readers like. I love the blue and white porcelains, foo dogs and silver. Am looking at my mini blue and white pagodas in my house as I write this. Just love them! This weekend (in Virginia) the snow is almost gone and we’re going to have great weather – so I hope to get outside and enjoy it. Best to you and Happy Weekend, Tina!
I ‘completed’ the survey. Thanks for the opportunity to pass along feedback. I hope you find my comments as useful as I have found your design presentations, products,and posts to myself in my own home. I love everything that you offer.
Off to the Oakland Museum White Elephant Sale which is a cultural phenomenon here in the Bay Area!
Just completed your survey.
I have the “fabulous oval planter” from your shop. It’s so gorgeous!I think the porcelains section of your shop is my favorite.
We are traveling to Seattle soon to visit our son and I’m hoping to visit the Ted Kennedy Watson store. I found out about it on your blog.
Have a great weekend!
I enjoyed taking the survey – it’s nice that you are truly interested in your reader’s opinions. I have a silver planter that is filled with greenery and flowers, and I got the inspiration from your blogs! Makes me smile whenever i see it!
I love your blue and white porcelain bowls. I want a fruit bowl and have been trying to figure out which bowl I’m going to buy. The first blue and white bowls listed are so gorgeous. I love just going through your shop and dreaming about what I would like to buy.
I just finished the survey. Regarding your shop, I just swoon over the foo dogs!
We watched two movies recently about Charles Dickens: The Invisible Woman and Mr. Pip. Although totally different, each was beautifully done and enlightening. If you haven’t seen these, I highly recommend them. Great for discussion afterwards.
Took your survey. Missing the garden this time of year so enjoyed looking at the pedestal with lovely urn atop. Yesterday watched an American bald eagle trying to steal a fish from some seagulls all morning. As he would fly off to circle again, I was struck by the strength and beauty of his soaring circles. I am thankful to be an American and live on a little river in the midwest.
Even in the winter, there are visual delights all around. One just has to sit still long enough to see them.
May you enjoy your winter and rest in it a bit. Even nature needs a time of renewal.
Lori
I love the whole blue & white range. My favorite product is the cherry blossom hexagon jar, which is at this moment sold out. Wanted to buy this jar but the shipping costs were far too high. I live in Europe, in the Austrian Alps and there is a snowstorm approaching. Every day I visit Tina?s shop and blog and keep dreaming about those jars because for us Europeans it is very difficult to find what Tina has in her shop. I?m a great fan of American interior style with an European twist ;)) Now I?m going to open a bottle of Italian Prosecco and enjoy this windy Saturday evening, always with blue&white jars on my mind 🙂
Hugs from a European big fan, Sofia.
Took the survey and found it hard to just list 2 favorite items from your shop. If I could, I would redo all my lighting with your tole….just gorgeous!
Hi Tina! I just finished your survey.I still think one of my favorite items is the Gardenia Candle that I purchased from you awhile ago. The scent is beautiful and my guests always comment about how lovely my home smells when they come over.
I’m trying to relax and decompress after traveling several hours each way this week for medical appointments for my husband to a medical center in another state. Alway very stressful, but come home feeling very blessed for continued good news. Your site is one of my happy places.
Hi Tina, I took your survey. I wanted to share the positive experiences I have with TEH when I place orders. I’ve enjoyed my blue and white, it is just gorgeous! I love the cow and lamb pillows.
Happy weekend??..
Completed the survey. I love the blue and white porcelains and the silver or any of the silver serving pieces. We are enjoying the 75 degree sunny weather we are having today in DFW. Off to the Ft. Worth Fat Stock Show & Rodeo later this evening.
Enjoy your weekend, Tina!
I took the survey. I love, love, love, your blue and white mini foo dogs which I own. Also want to get the royal blue ones to go with the blue and white theme I have in my great room.
I love the silver line. The expansion is one I have been happily anticipating since you started carrying a few products early on. I watch this space everyday for your new products. I am home bound this weekend before travel, mostly because I have too much to do, however, I find absolutely no motivation to do it. Perhaps I will find it at the end of a movie or bottom of cookie tin. Am I the last to see ‘Far From the Madding Crowd”? How glorious was that movie…I need someone to put together a list of top romantic period piece movies made in past 5 years, and maybe a top 10 of all time, The kind that husbands roll their eyes at, go to get a ‘snack’ and never return to. Those kind. Sweeping romantic gorgeousness.
Thanks for collecting ideas via the survey. It was fun to contribute a few advertising ideas to boost your visibility here in bar therm Virginia.
I did a little shopping today; found a election-themed Vineyard Vines tie for a friend’s birthday and then watched college basketball. Tonite is dinner out with friends, tomorrow Sunday school, church and a massage — a day of healing body and soul!!
Hugs, Ellen
I forgot to mention the spectacular book I read . “The Tenor” by Peter Danish is Historical Fiction at its best . I highly recommend this beautifully written novel!
Love the Enchanted Home and look forward receiving it. This weekend is totally for myHunter, a GSP, short for German Shorthaired Pointer. He was a forced adoption by my youngest son but I love him and have spoiled him. Due to the weather here in Ky. it has been several weeks since he was able to go to the dog park and he lives for that. This breed thinks about “the run,” and when he knows he is on his way to the park he is beside himself. The sun is finally out and the snow is almost gone. I love going to the park with him because he is adorable to me. He pays no attention to other dogs just runs and runs for hours for however it takes to catch him after I get tired of walking. Good for both of us and of course everyone always tells me how handsome he is and he does have good form. My baby Hunter
I completed the servey! I love reading your blog, and looking at the photo’s of your beautiful home. It gives me a little escape from reality! My mother was just diagnosed with ovarian cancer and has recently moved in with us. She is very weak right now and doesn’t have much of an appetite, but we are working on that! She likes to have me read your blog to her and show her the pictures of your gorgeous home! Oh! Almost forgot! My favorite item in your shop is, hands down, the white monogrammed dinner napkins with the blue scalloped edge! Monogrammed in Blue Willow blue, of course!
Just completed your survey. I love reading about your fabulous home, how you entertain and I CANNOT WAIT to hear all about your new home in Palmetto Bluff! I always love your handbags, cutting boards (bought one for my daughter and she loved it) and just seeing all your pretties.
Thank you for asking your readers to fill out a survey. It means you value our opinions and that is commendable. I have always been intrigued with the candles from the Ritz Carlton. One of these days I am going to buy one. I have several of your porcelain items and love them. Would like to buy a black chinoiserie umbrella stand when they are back in stock.
I’m in love with the chinoiserie hand painted pillows, and all the blue and white porcelains, oh and lets not forget the foo dogs, and the lamps, lets not forget the lamps! You see I can’t just pick one! One of these days….she says dreamy like. And as for my week end…I have 3 chalk painting projects that need my attention…sigh!
Your antique dough bowls are wonderful! I also love the Annabel Ingalls bags! Congratulations on building in Palmetto Bluff-great choice of regions! Just returned from the NC coast myself – it was a beautiful week!!!
Greetings from sunny Tampa Florida! I love lots of things in your beautiful shop; especially the silver! I’m reading the fabulous Outlander series. Finished the survey. Have a great Sunday
PS: Your Seven on Sunday may be the post I enjoy the most
I completed the survey. Thank you for asking our opinions, hope it helps. Saw a great Netflix the other night, Cairo Time, with Patricia Clarkson. The cinematography was so beautiful.
I enjoyed participating in the survey, that was fun!
I LOVE the blue and white ginger jar…..who wouldn’t?!
Today we are saying good bye to a dear friend this afternoon who worked tirelessly over 30 years making Maui a better place by his passion to offer affordable housing. He now is living forever with his creator in a place much much much better than Maui!!
Everything is beautiful on your site but love the blue and white large porcelain ginger jar lamp. This weekend I have been target practicing with my hand gun in preparation for a concealed weapons class. We have spring weather today with 64 degree temperatures so the snow last week is forgotten!
My favorites are always the Chinese porcelains, the lamps, the antique silver, & monogrammed linens. Oh & your Chinoiserie tolle and monogrammed trays). For some reason I’ve fallen in love with the pair of Staffordshire Lamps (they look like my daughter’s little King Charles Cavalier tri)
I just completed the survey. I have been pining away dreaming about your hand painted silk pillows. They are just divine! I am saving my pennies up to buy one!
Well, it’s always very difficult to pick one favourite from your shop. I love the AP flat top Ginger Jar, and the Mid sized Pagoda Canton Pot planter is gorgeous. Oh yes, the pretty orange and white ginger jar as well. I love your blog, and often wonder how you get it out every day with something fun, or inspiring to read. Have tried and enjoy your recipes too. My young grandsons live with me and so reading your blog is my little escape from school schedules, laundry, and lunches. I’m looking forward to your Palmetto Bluff adventure. I watched the video and it lookes like paradise, no wonder you bought there!
Appreciated the chance to provide feedback on your on-line shop. I do covet the monogram napkins and hope to get them soon. Spent a wonderful weekend at the United States Naval Academy and watched my son and his classmates select their ships for their first duty as officers in the US Navy after May graduation.
I just finished your survey and browsed through your shop. My favorites are always the blue and white porcelains and lately the chinoiserie items. (simply gorgeous) My project for this weekend is to un-decorate Christmas (over 50 Christmas trees and accessories.) Christmas is a big deal around here but I am anxious to bring things back to normal and bring out the rest of my beautiful blue and white. I am scheduled for a knee replacement surgery next week so I need to get everything back to normal. I look forward to enjoying your site and SHOP as part of my therapy. Thanks for being in my life!
I completed the survey! Even though it is currently out of stock, my favorite item is the BLACK CHINOISERIE UMBRELLA STAND. Can’t wait for that to be re-stocked 🙂 One of my favorite things from the weekend was seeing the movie Brooklyn…what a wonderful film!
Hi Tina!
I completed your survey and I hope you can start carrying the items I suggested I wanted to see in your shop.
I love the porcelain planters and ginger jars, the chinoiserie painted pillows, and the gorgeous tole lamps and lanterns that you carry in your shop!
I sure hope that your son picked out The University of Texas to go to. It is a great school.
Your snow pictures are lovely and much appreciated since we do not get cold weather in Orange County, CA. I always look forward to your blog.
Thank you for sharing your decorating talents, ideas, and beautiful products with us.
I just finished the survey and thank you for that opportunity. Just received my first purchase….the fabulous pair of porcelain ginger jars. Love them!! I have my sights on a large blue and white porcelain bowl and to be honest, boxwoods too! If you want a different kind of book, “Wonder”. By RJ Palacio, is a quick read and stays with you! Our book club loved it!
I took your survey, Tina. My absolute favorite item in your shop is (and always has been–since first sight) is the moss green Chinoiserie tole table lamp. Oh I love that so!

I love all of your blue and white porcelain, your silver and your adorable napkin rings! Honestly, I shouldn’t stop there because I could go on and name all that you offer! There is beauty around every corner! Thanks for all that you do to bring such beauty to us all!
I LOVE your silver…in particular the scalloped pieces.
I just finished Carry on, Warrior by Gleenon Doyle Melton. She is coming to speak at our church soon and I am looking forward to it!
Love the Blue Porcelain & Ormolu Foot Bath & all your sweet Foo Dogs! I took your survey! Thanks for all the time you put into making this blog and online shop among the best out there! Always a delight!
I just completed the survey and love the pajamas pictured on side of your blog page, but could not find in all of your fabulous offerings! When I hit the lottery, lookout Missy, as you will be sold out of your many offerings when I begin to furnish my newly purchased beach home! Haha!
I completed your survey and love your shop. Right now I have about 5 pillows I want to get for my sunroom. I also love the Vagabond house stuff. Actually I love almost everything. Wish I could afford to just buy everything I love. Thanks for running the promos. I looked at this large silver wine bucket for months and then bought it when you ran the promo a couple of months ago. I love it. Holds 4 bottles of champagne. Thanks Tina for making all of our lives more beautiful.
My favorite things in your shop are the items from Vagabond Home- to die for!!!!
I went to the Laguna Design Center this week this week and I visited Baker and Ebanista. I thought of you and your beautiful home. Please look at the offerings at Ebanista, There are some fabulous things that would look great in your home.
Survey completed. I am enjoying every piece of blue and white I’ve ordered from your shop. The quality is excellent! I will be ordering silver soon. Thank you, Tina!!
Well the ginger jar and vase that I recently purchased from you for my sister they are gorgeous!! THe lanterns are wonderful too! It my 50th Birthday weekend so was surprised with a cooking class with friends , you would have loved it Tina!! xo K
Completed the survey Love the Porcelains and the Bell Jar lights. Stormy here in California and enjoying every moment of the wind and rain. We so desperately need the rain.
Just filled out the survey. There are so many things I love in your shop….the Large Round Wood Trivet, the Square Antique Brass Lantern or the Bird Twig Condiment Server. It’s raining out so I’m redecorating my guest room in time for a visit from a friend from New York! Loved reading Secret of a Charmed Life by Susan Meissner….couldn’t put it down!
I love the Chinoiserie Handpainted Pillows. They are really unlike anything I have seen before. Have not purchased anything yet from your site, but intend to, and did take the survey.
I completed the survey, enjoy your blog and shop so much and I think it’s because you share you home and family and that is what makes it feel so friendly! Thanks for sharing!
I finished the survey. My favorite item is the thick cheese board with the silver leaves and bees on the corners. I have bought many items from you but I have received more praise from my friends on this beautiful cheese or serving board
Just finished smocking a dress for my little granddaughter (after 4 sons) & visited the on-line shop for the first time (& took the survey.) I have always decorated with blue and white and collected blue and white porcelain so I was in heaven! Especially loved the tole planters and lamps.
Just completed the survey, not really sure if I am eligible as live in Australia. Love everything really but in particular the Large ornate fabulous silver tray ! All your silver products look beautiful. It is hard to get silver and you have a beautiful range to choose from. That tray would add elegance to any occasion. Thank you Tina for providing me with a wonderful source of inspiration from across the miles.
I’m sure I’m too late to leave a comment for the weekend, as the weekend has passed. However, I will tell you my favorite catagories in your on-line store.
I love the porcelains as they are timeless, the Bell Jar lighting (producing a soft glow), the Chinoiserie pillows (inviting and lovely) and the blue and white table lamps, which I could have (and do) displayed all over our house. I am a blue and white girl too, however, we have a little Tuscan yellow and raspberry thrown in to the mix to keep it interesting and warm.
BOOKS, I read last month: Big Little Lies, Still Alice, The Sound of Gravel and Me Before You
Yesterday on the plane, I read my Southern Cooking (the “50th”year issue)magazine…all I can say, “is there enough hours in the day to work out after you bake and cook each delicious recipe?”
So here goes, you jogged my memory with your post and reminded me of a trip we just returned from a couple of weeks ago.
Likes: We go to almost all movies (all over the world) and enjoyed “Star Wars” in a darling movie theater in Munich, where, after watching the ice skaters skate outside, we entered the theater, checked our coats, and were handed a glass of champagne while being ushered to our seats. One of our favorite cities on our sabbatical, was Kitzbuhel, Austria. We spent Christmas there with our adult children. Christmas was truly magical in this little Austrian village where everyone strolled through the Christmas Market with a cup of mulled wine in their hands while Christmas music was playing and sleigh drawn horses were taking families on rides. Our ski lodge was centered above this magical village so our daily view was the blue sky and the Austrian Alps surrounding us. We had starry nights each evening. The Catholic Church and cemetery stood in the middle of this sweet, famous World Cup village . The soft warm glow of the candles in the windows, the pretty lights, the families covered with warm blankets in the sleighs and the jingle of the horses bells painted a beautiful Christmas evening for us to remember…
Tina,
I appreciate that you share your, life, home, photos and musings with all your followers. You always make everything, interesting, entertaining and enjoyable. In the shop, I really love your lamps, especially the small Cavalier “Mamma and Puppies” pair.
Thank you!
Barbara
Just completed your survey which
was my pleasure. Absolutely love your custom silk painted pillows; so unique. And your bird planter as well as the multicolored foot bath/planter which are to die for!
Everything you have in your shop is just awesome. I love the monogrammed napkins, the pierced silver trays, the orchids, just all of it! Thank you for caring enough to ask for our opinions and feedback, it shows how genuinely concerned you are about your customers and readers. I look forward to your drawings and comments every day.
I completed the survey and especially like the monogrammed cocktail napkins. I adore monogrammed items, and the napkins you carry are beautiful. I bought the cocktIl napkins for a gift, and the recipient was truly grateful.
The price and quality of the monogrammed napkins are a real value.
Your blog is wonderful. The item I found interesting was in your new arrival section: the fruit handled flower pot. I enjoy reading your blog and find it inspiring how you incorporate the items from your shop into your own home.
I am late responding and leaving a comment. But nonetheless, I love your site and have ordered many items. I have been so pleased and proud to own all of the blue/white porcelain I ordered. I think the monogrammed linens are to die for and I am going to order white/linen napkins with a royal blue monogram. So excited about setting my dining room table with them for my next dinner party. Also all of the silver is exquisite and of estate quality. As always, what is not to like on your site. I wake up each morning, pop in my contact lens and read your blog. Thanks for making my weekday and weekend mornings bright and cheerful.

I love the monogram trays
Love your selection of foo dogs. They’re so much fun!
The survey is completed, I love the large nickel hurricanes, they bring a modern aspect to a traditional room. I am a huge Ralph Lauren fan, the modern accents help to update a traditional setting, while remaining timeless.
Gray weekend, after doing the survey I will be back to shop! After that, snuggle up with my stack of Christmas books.
I love the silver trays and any and all foo dogs. I completed the survey.
I love the blue foo dogs! I am on the beautiful Crystal Coast taking care of my parents and enjoying the sunshine after the snow. Relaxing this morning while reading your blog and shopping online!
I took the survey. I love the bell jar lanterns and the blue and white.
I completed the survey and I absolutely cannot pick just one thing from the shop! But if I have to list some favorites, it would be the antique white foo dogs, the chunky ginger jars with lids, the silver pierced and etched planters, the wine holder planters, and the fiberstone planters. The monogrammed linens are incredible too! Thank you!
I responded to the survey and love any and all blue/white. The blue/white foo dogs are just wonderful! Any of the silver pieces would fit perfectly in my home!

I finished the survey and love all my blue and white porcelain pieces I have purchased from your website! And monogrammed napkins
I enjoyed completing the survey and having the opportunity to gush over your carefully curated shop.
I am a Kentucky girl and LOVE the site. I enjoy reading every post so keep doing what you are doing.
Glad to share feedback via your survey. I always find creative design ideas tucked into each of your photos. Seven on Sunday is a favorite reading – nice introduction to other designers, bloggers and artists. On your site, many great items…the porcelains always catch my eye. ~ Melissa

Today starts our renovation of a 1938 beach house that we just closed on yesterday on Amelia Island, FL. We’ve been living in it since September ’15 and are ready to put our stamp on it. Our colors will be blue and white and I look forward to purchasing some items from you when “the dust settles”!
My favs are the foo dogs and the pagodas. Love them both so much, I can’t pick just one!
Hi Tina,
I completed the survey! I love anything monogrammed on your shop site,,,among many other things too. I do have a book recommendation “The Art of Racing in the Rain” by Garth Stein. It’s a story written from a dog’s point of view. I can tell from your posts that you have a dog that is well loved and I think you may enjoy this read when you are snuggled in on a quite weekend. Thanks for the chance at the giveaway!
Love the Foo dogs and just about everything in the shop. I do like Seven on Sunday. I finished the survey and hope it helps you to continue to supply me wonderful ideas.! Can’t wait to watch the progress of your new home, I so enjoyed watching your current home go up, and being decorated
love your blog and swooning over the pretty’s in your shop. hope to purchase a silver obtainer for a engagement party I’m hosting for my sons best friend. think it will be fab in my foyer with white orchids in it.
Really looking forward to your new home in South Carolina!! And I would have monogrammed napkins in every color!! Thanks, Tina!
I completed the survey and visited the shop, which is always a pleasure. Any of your blue and white lamps would be wonderful additions to my home.
I completed the survey. I am looking forward to sharing your journey as you build your new home. The inspiration pictures are wonderful. If you are looking for a good book read The Residence. It is about the staff that works for the first family in the White House. The commitment they show is great as are the stories of past first families.
Love the new hurricanes! Have been wanting some for a long time! Glad to see you expanding your product lines. Lots of things on my wish list.
Sorry-I got a little ahead and submitted my comment without my name.
I love the wine holders!
That Palmetto Bluff location is just fabulous and I loved the video. I’m relaxing by the lake in Virginia, in the house, of course!! The water is cold, I assume, but the view is lovely.
Thank you for the opportunity to complete the survey. You have a fabulous collection of Blue and White porcelains..I am hooked. Channeling my inner Southern Belle(being from Virginia)…I love anything with a monogram. During the past few weeks we are binge watching HOMELAND and finished Grace and Frankie. Finished reading the Paris Wife.
I have completed the survey and want to tell you that I am dying for one of the handpainted Chinoiserie pillows! Also, some monogramed linen guest towels. So beautiful!
Choosing a favorite is not possible …but the silver containers and trays are very impressive as are all the ginger jars . I really could go on and on …
Cherry Blossom season will soon be here in Md/DC area . I’ve had my sites on that particular ginger jar for some time ! I’ve never seen one like the one you have in your shop.
Our visits to Washington have been numerous over the years, but trips during “cherry blossom” season make it seem quite a wonderland.
Many favorites however the monogram mania and European kitchen are the tops.
Well, my favorites in your shop would have to be the blue and white porcelains, but I also love the wood kitchen trays and dough bowls. The little blue foo dogs look so cute, so may have to find a spot for those. We have a low key weekend planned taking care of our 3 year old granddaughter tonight. We saw “The Revenent” last night. The cinematography and acting were amazing, although very violent at times. Couldn’t watch parts. Hope Leonardo finally wins his Oscar.
Can’t wait to see what is next! Absolutely adore the silver and monogramed napkins.
Tina, I completed your survey and hope my input is helpful. One thing I would like to mention is that I enjoy your recipes so keep them coming please. I like the porcelains,vases and jars in particular. Here in Virginia we are still dealing with snow as well, Sunday is suppose to be 60 so here’s hoping it goes away! I just saw a flock of robins so spring can’t be THAT far away can it?!
Can’t wait to see what is next! Linens are a passion and monogramed napkins are just gorgeous.
Love your tole and porcelain lamps! And also waiting to hear all about your Palmetto project step by step!
Hi
Tina,
Just finished your survey and it’s hard to choose a favorite but I do love all of your Tole products, which you don’t often see in stores. I am still waiting to receive an order I was billed for on Jan. 5th of this year. I will forward the voice to you and I hope you’ll let me know what happened. I would love to win the Foo dogs ! Best, Kathy
The navy cherry blossom jar called out to me after taking your survey Tina!
Completed survey. I love the medium floral arrangement in light blue container. Would go great with my new living room. but love all the tole products.
I completed the survey. I look forward to see your new projects. Happy weekend!
Love all the blue and white porcelain in your shop! I live in central Texas and it’s going to be in the 80s today. Just finished the survey. Thanks for an opportunity to voice our wants and needs.
Thank you for encouraging me to go back through your shop! Fabulous! There are several things I plan to,order soon. I love the role pagoda pieces and find them really distinctive in the market. I did notice that several things in the new section are mislabeled…..just a note from a friend.
First thing I did this Saturday morning here in Wisconsin is your survey. Thanks for the opportunity to share our shopping experience. We are getting our home on OCONOMOWOC Lake ready to go on the market in two weeks. The cherry blossoms from your shop will look beautiful in our grand foyer.
I love your blog.
I found the survey to be thought provoking, actually realized why I enjoy your site so much! I adore the scalopped plater I ordered.
I completed the survey. I love all of the silver in the shop and anticipate receiving my first order from your shop soon.

Love all your products, especially the monogrammed napkins and mini-foo dogs! I also love hearing vacation recommendations! Just booked a stay at Palmetto Bluffs! Can’t wait to see it in person!
I completed the survey! I love, love your taste in your shop items! As I’m building my blue and white porcelain collection, I’m drawn to all your beautiful selections! And, I think it’s great that you photograph your shop items in your home! After taking my son for a haircut I think we’ll take a family walk in the snowy sunshine with the doggies!
I completed the survey. I love the mid-sized Canton planter with the brass bases and handles and the black toile tray. Also love the lamps.

I, too, have completed your survey and I hope that my enthusiastic comments have helped you. Yur shop has so many beautiful and well priced things that it is hard to pick but I think the blue and white ginger jars are my favorite I would love to see more garden stools for this coming summer at my house in Duxbury MA. Thanks, also, for your recipes. I think you missed your calling and should be giving us recipes as often as possible also.
Just finished the survey with my pleasure. Your store is unique, lovely, enchanting and creative.
You have just the right touch.
I love your porcelains and silver. I purchased one of your beautiful lamps and love it.

Anything Oriental. I adore pictures of you house and other blog mates.
Entered the survey and as always love all your blue and white porcelain.
Thank you, Tina, for being concerned about your readers. I love that you’re not afraid to express your own ideas, both decorating and personal! l filled out the survey and love the needlepoint pillows, especially the red chinoiserie ladies.
I completed the survey, and forgive me – mine will be the long-winded one! Thank you for the opportunity to offer feedback. One unique quality about your shop is that each item has your personal touch and approval, and I value that. I love any and all items for tabletop, serving, entertaining! BTW, it’s a beautiful sunny weekend in the South! Can’t wait to see your new home plans unfold!
Completed the survey & still loving all things blue & white!
I am of course obsessed with all of the blue and white! I am on a mission to get one of the planters!! I am just starting to collect so I am constantly creating a wish list off of your site! Loving the foo dogs!

Took your survey & enjoy your shop. Because of my early exposure to and lifelong love of blue and white porcelain, I am always browsing. I do not shop at stores. Your site is one of the very few stores I follow.
Beautiful day in North Carolina! I finished the survey, and hope you get great and usable feedback. My faves are definitely your porcelains and the beautiful pictures of your home. I also enjoy your recommendations for design books. I have purchased several 🙂
I will always love anything blue and white! I want to get some of your beautiful silver pieces, especially a small or mid-size planter for an orchid. I also love your Foo Dogs!
Friday evening, a girlfriend and I went to Sarasota to see a Dancing With The Stars performance! It was wonderful and a great evening to share with a girlfriend! Our husbands were together and did something else in Naples, Florida.
Next week, my husband and I are attending a wedding in Savannah, Georgia. That should be fun; the son of our very dear friend is getting married. We don’t get to see our friends too often, but we’re always there for each other. Two years ago, our son lost his home to an EF- 4 tornado in Washington, Illinois and our friend was very generous to our son and his young family. True friends are difficult to find in today’s mobile society.
I didn’t mean to go into all that, but as you can imagine, the tornado and its effects will always remind me of how precious life really is!
I finished the survey, and love my blue & white porcelains I recently purchased!
Forgot to mention that I took your survey.
Just finished the survey. Good questions. love the European Home items (Have several). I also have porcelains and silver which I love. The pillows are great too. Love my purchase.

I took the survey. I am in love with the Pagoda lantern. I am house hunting this weekend.
Forgot to mention that I took the survey
I love the foo dogs!
I took the survey.
Today is laundry day, I know, not exciting. However, I’m also planning a get away trip to Switzerland and Austria in early April with my husband and 15 year old daughter, (last child of four) who will turn 16 on the day we arrive in Geneva, so I’m planning a spa day for her, as well. After I filled out your survey, I headed to your shop and still love most the colored porcelains. Now back to the laundry…. 🙂
I filled out the survey. I like the Ginger Jar
It is so hard to choose a favorite. You have impeccable taste. My first purchase will be a monogrammed tray. Love all things Asian too….my daughters are from China so we love to throw in a little Asian flair here and there in our home. My favorite thing right now is the extra large bamboo lantern. I just wish I had a place to put it!! Thank you for sharing your talents.
I love both the foo dogs and the cherry blossom container
Completed the survey and enjoyed browsing your shop. Love the monogram tole trays, the foo dogs and pagodas!

Not doing anything exciting except SAG awards tonight, Sunday dinner tomorrow and shopping for some super bowl items. Planning my big bash. I might hit antique row as it is beautiful in Florida..cool for us.
Beautiful, inspirational and needed in this modern trend. It warms much heart. Best read is anything by Joel Rosenberg. The Ayshwitz Escape, a historical fiction. It’s 76 degrees today in Texas and after pedicure I’m going to my lake house to relax!God’s Blessings to you

Good morning! I have completed your survey. I adore the Blue and White porcelains and have enjoyed each piece I have purchased from your shop. My favorite is my recent purchase of the bird ginger jar with foo dog on too. So pretty! Have a great day!
How wonderful that you are checking in with your fans on what makes us swoon! Survey completed! Love the monogram napkins and the Isabella tote (small). Could not figure out what color each bag was though.
Just completed the survey! My absolute favorites from your shop are the blue and white porcelains and your huge selection of lamps! I would love a pair of the small foo dogs to use as bookends, just can’t decide between blue or green! We are having fantastic weather this weekend so I’ll be on the patio enjoying the beautiful days.
Completed the survey. My favorite things from your shop are the blue and white porcelains and the monogrammed napkins.
Just took the survey. Two of my favorites are the tonal white raised fruit planter and the medium navy and white cherry blossom fishbowl/planter.
On my way out to do some cleanup in the front courtyard.
The survey was very easy to use and I appreciate your efforts to find out what your readers like. I love the blue and white porcelains, foo dogs and silver. Am looking at my mini blue and white pagodas in my house as I write this. Just love them! This weekend (in Virginia) the snow is almost gone and we’re going to have great weather – so I hope to get outside and enjoy it. Best to you and Happy Weekend, Tina!
I am loving the Classic Cone Boxwood Topiary and loving your website!
I ‘completed’ the survey. Thanks for the opportunity to pass along feedback. I hope you find my comments as useful as I have found your design presentations, products,and posts to myself in my own home. I love everything that you offer.
Off to the Oakland Museum White Elephant Sale which is a cultural phenomenon here in the Bay Area!
Just completed your survey.
I have the “fabulous oval planter” from your shop. It’s so gorgeous!I think the porcelains section of your shop is my favorite.
We are traveling to Seattle soon to visit our son and I’m hoping to visit the Ted Kennedy Watson store. I found out about it on your blog.
Have a great weekend!
I filled out the survey. I love your porcelains. Have many of them. Your blog is fabulous just as it is.
Anything blue and white….especially the Ginger jars
you blog is great I always look forward to you pictures …thx for sharing your home with us …
I enjoyed taking the survey – it’s nice that you are truly interested in your reader’s opinions. I have a silver planter that is filled with greenery and flowers, and I got the inspiration from your blogs! Makes me smile whenever i see it!
LOVE the Annabelle Ingalls handbags. GREAT deal and beautiful bags (mine is complimented all the time!)
I love your blue and white porcelain bowls. I want a fruit bowl and have been trying to figure out which bowl I’m going to buy. The first blue and white bowls listed are so gorgeous. I love just going through your shop and dreaming about what I would like to buy.
I completed the survey. I have purchased porcelains & your beautiful faux cherry blossoms in the past so those categories are my favorites!
I just finished the survey. Regarding your shop, I just swoon over the foo dogs!
We watched two movies recently about Charles Dickens: The Invisible Woman and Mr. Pip. Although totally different, each was beautifully done and enlightening. If you haven’t seen these, I highly recommend them. Great for discussion afterwards.
Took your survey. Missing the garden this time of year so enjoyed looking at the pedestal with lovely urn atop. Yesterday watched an American bald eagle trying to steal a fish from some seagulls all morning. As he would fly off to circle again, I was struck by the strength and beauty of his soaring circles. I am thankful to be an American and live on a little river in the midwest.
Even in the winter, there are visual delights all around. One just has to sit still long enough to see them.
May you enjoy your winter and rest in it a bit. Even nature needs a time of renewal.

I love the whole blue & white range. My favorite product is the cherry blossom hexagon jar, which is at this moment sold out. Wanted to buy this jar but the shipping costs were far too high. I live in Europe, in the Austrian Alps and there is a snowstorm approaching. Every day I visit Tina?s shop and blog and keep dreaming about those jars because for us Europeans it is very difficult to find what Tina has in her shop. I?m a great fan of American interior style with an European twist ;)) Now I?m going to open a bottle of Italian Prosecco and enjoy this windy Saturday evening, always with blue&white jars on my mind 🙂
Hugs from a European big fan, Sofia.
Took the survey and found it hard to just list 2 favorite items from your shop. If I could, I would redo all my lighting with your tole….just gorgeous!
Hi Tina! I just finished your survey.I still think one of my favorite items is the Gardenia Candle that I purchased from you awhile ago. The scent is beautiful and my guests always comment about how lovely my home smells when they come over.
I’m trying to relax and decompress after traveling several hours each way this week for medical appointments for my husband to a medical center in another state. Alway very stressful, but come home feeling very blessed for continued good news. Your site is one of my happy places.
Sofia also took part in the survey, comment number 127. Sorry forgot to mention 😉
Hi Tina, I took your survey. I wanted to share the positive experiences I have with TEH when I place orders. I’ve enjoyed my blue and white, it is just gorgeous! I love the cow and lamb pillows.
Happy weekend??..
Completed the survey. I love the blue and white porcelains and the silver or any of the silver serving pieces. We are enjoying the 75 degree sunny weather we are having today in DFW. Off to the Ft. Worth Fat Stock Show & Rodeo later this evening.
Enjoy your weekend, Tina!
I took the survey. I love, love, love, your blue and white mini foo dogs which I own. Also want to get the royal blue ones to go with the blue and white theme I have in my great room.
I love the silver line. The expansion is one I have been happily anticipating since you started carrying a few products early on. I watch this space everyday for your new products. I am home bound this weekend before travel, mostly because I have too much to do, however, I find absolutely no motivation to do it. Perhaps I will find it at the end of a movie or bottom of cookie tin. Am I the last to see ‘Far From the Madding Crowd”? How glorious was that movie…I need someone to put together a list of top romantic period piece movies made in past 5 years, and maybe a top 10 of all time, The kind that husbands roll their eyes at, go to get a ‘snack’ and never return to. Those kind. Sweeping romantic gorgeousness.
Thanks for collecting ideas via the survey. It was fun to contribute a few advertising ideas to boost your visibility here in bar therm Virginia.
I did a little shopping today; found a election-themed Vineyard Vines tie for a friend’s birthday and then watched college basketball. Tonite is dinner out with friends, tomorrow Sunday school, church and a massage — a day of healing body and soul!!
Hugs, Ellen
I forgot to mention the spectacular book I read . “The Tenor” by Peter Danish is Historical Fiction at its best . I highly recommend this beautifully written novel!
Love the Enchanted Home and look forward receiving it. This weekend is totally for myHunter, a GSP, short for German Shorthaired Pointer. He was a forced adoption by my youngest son but I love him and have spoiled him. Due to the weather here in Ky. it has been several weeks since he was able to go to the dog park and he lives for that. This breed thinks about “the run,” and when he knows he is on his way to the park he is beside himself. The sun is finally out and the snow is almost gone. I love going to the park with him because he is adorable to me. He pays no attention to other dogs just runs and runs for hours for however it takes to catch him after I get tired of walking. Good for both of us and of course everyone always tells me how handsome he is and he does have good form. My baby Hunter
I entered the survey and love all the blue and white porcelain. I have bought a really big bowl and a tiny bowl and I love them both.
I completed the survey! I love the Incredible Tall Square Jar that sold out before I could purchase it! I love your blog and the shop.
Enjoy it all! Looking forward to following your new adventure!
I completed the servey! I love reading your blog, and looking at the photo’s of your beautiful home. It gives me a little escape from reality! My mother was just diagnosed with ovarian cancer and has recently moved in with us. She is very weak right now and doesn’t have much of an appetite, but we are working on that! She likes to have me read your blog to her and show her the pictures of your gorgeous home! Oh! Almost forgot! My favorite item in your shop is, hands down, the white monogrammed dinner napkins with the blue scalloped edge! Monogrammed in Blue Willow blue, of course!
Just completed your survey. I love reading about your fabulous home, how you entertain and I CANNOT WAIT to hear all about your new home in Palmetto Bluff! I always love your handbags, cutting boards (bought one for my daughter and she loved it) and just seeing all your pretties.
I participated in the survey. I love, love, love your porcelains and the silver. Your pierced trays are to die for!
Thank you for asking your readers to fill out a survey. It means you value our opinions and that is commendable. I have always been intrigued with the candles from the Ritz Carlton. One of these days I am going to buy one. I have several of your porcelain items and love them. Would like to buy a black chinoiserie umbrella stand when they are back in stock.
I’m in love with the chinoiserie hand painted pillows, and all the blue and white porcelains, oh and lets not forget the foo dogs, and the lamps, lets not forget the lamps! You see I can’t just pick one! One of these days….she says dreamy like. And as for my week end…I have 3 chalk painting projects that need my attention…sigh!
Your antique dough bowls are wonderful! I also love the Annabel Ingalls bags! Congratulations on building in Palmetto Bluff-great choice of regions! Just returned from the NC coast myself – it was a beautiful week!!!
Greetings from sunny Tampa Florida! I love lots of things in your beautiful shop; especially the silver! I’m reading the fabulous Outlander series. Finished the survey. Have a great Sunday
PS: Your Seven on Sunday may be the post I enjoy the most
Love the blue & white. Survey completed!
I completed the survey. Thank you for asking our opinions, hope it helps. Saw a great Netflix the other night, Cairo Time, with Patricia Clarkson. The cinematography was so beautiful.
I enjoyed participating in the survey, that was fun!
I LOVE the blue and white ginger jar…..who wouldn’t?!
Today we are saying good bye to a dear friend this afternoon who worked tirelessly over 30 years making Maui a better place by his passion to offer affordable housing. He now is living forever with his creator in a place much much much better than Maui!!
Drooling over the lighting. Would love to change out my kitchen lighting for a pair of your pendants. And they are all beautiful.
Everything is beautiful on your site but love the blue and white large porcelain ginger jar lamp. This weekend I have been target practicing with my hand gun in preparation for a concealed weapons class. We have spring weather today with 64 degree temperatures so the snow last week is forgotten!
My favorites are always the Chinese porcelains, the lamps, the antique silver, & monogrammed linens. Oh & your Chinoiserie tolle and monogrammed trays). For some reason I’ve fallen in love with the pair of Staffordshire Lamps (they look like my daughter’s little King Charles Cavalier tri)
I completed the survey. I love my new mini pagodas!
I just completed the survey. I have been pining away dreaming about your hand painted silk pillows. They are just divine! I am saving my pennies up to buy one!
Well, it’s always very difficult to pick one favourite from your shop. I love the AP flat top Ginger Jar, and the Mid sized Pagoda Canton Pot planter is gorgeous. Oh yes, the pretty orange and white ginger jar as well. I love your blog, and often wonder how you get it out every day with something fun, or inspiring to read. Have tried and enjoy your recipes too. My young grandsons live with me and so reading your blog is my little escape from school schedules, laundry, and lunches. I’m looking forward to your Palmetto Bluff adventure. I watched the video and it lookes like paradise, no wonder you bought there!
Appreciated the chance to provide feedback on your on-line shop. I do covet the monogram napkins and hope to get them soon. Spent a wonderful weekend at the United States Naval Academy and watched my son and his classmates select their ships for their first duty as officers in the US Navy after May graduation.
I just finished your survey and browsed through your shop. My favorites are always the blue and white porcelains and lately the chinoiserie items. (simply gorgeous) My project for this weekend is to un-decorate Christmas (over 50 Christmas trees and accessories.) Christmas is a big deal around here but I am anxious to bring things back to normal and bring out the rest of my beautiful blue and white. I am scheduled for a knee replacement surgery next week so I need to get everything back to normal. I look forward to enjoying your site and SHOP as part of my therapy. Thanks for being in my life!
I just spent the day at the LA Market and now know for sure your boxwood prices are great!
I did the survey and in the shop I love a lot, but would like someday buy the rose canton garden seat item!
I completed the survey! Even though it is currently out of stock, my favorite item is the BLACK CHINOISERIE UMBRELLA STAND. Can’t wait for that to be re-stocked 🙂 One of my favorite things from the weekend was seeing the movie Brooklyn…what a wonderful film!
Hi Tina!
I completed your survey and I hope you can start carrying the items I suggested I wanted to see in your shop.
I love the porcelain planters and ginger jars, the chinoiserie painted pillows, and the gorgeous tole lamps and lanterns that you carry in your shop!
I sure hope that your son picked out The University of Texas to go to. It is a great school.
Your snow pictures are lovely and much appreciated since we do not get cold weather in Orange County, CA. I always look forward to your blog.
Thank you for sharing your decorating talents, ideas, and beautiful products with us.
I just finished the survey and thank you for that opportunity. Just received my first purchase….the fabulous pair of porcelain ginger jars. Love them!! I have my sights on a large blue and white porcelain bowl and to be honest, boxwoods too! If you want a different kind of book, “Wonder”. By RJ Palacio, is a quick read and stays with you! Our book club loved it!
I took your survey, Tina. My absolute favorite item in your shop is (and always has been–since first sight) is the moss green Chinoiserie tole table lamp. Oh I love that so!
I love the blue and white collection?.ginger jars and vases, the florals, and the dough bowls! Your blog is a true treat to read, and I enjoy receiving it in my mailbox! Thanks for the opportunity to win one of your giveaways?.would LOVE the ginger jar!!!!

Love the Blue Porcelain & Ormolu Foot Bath & all your sweet Foo Dogs! I took your survey! Thanks for all the time you put into making this blog and online shop among the best out there! Always a delight!
I just completed the survey and love the pajamas pictured on side of your blog page, but could not find in all of your fabulous offerings! When I hit the lottery, lookout Missy, as you will be sold out of your many offerings when I begin to furnish my newly purchased beach home! Haha!
I completed your survey and love your shop. Right now I have about 5 pillows I want to get for my sunroom. I also love the Vagabond house stuff. Actually I love almost everything. Wish I could afford to just buy everything I love. Thanks for running the promos. I looked at this large silver wine bucket for months and then bought it when you ran the promo a couple of months ago. I love it. Holds 4 bottles of champagne. Thanks Tina for making all of our lives more beautiful.
Dear Tina,
My favorite things in your shop are the items from Vagabond Home- to die for!!!!
I went to the Laguna Design Center this week this week and I visited Baker and Ebanista. I thought of you and your beautiful home. Please look at the offerings at Ebanista, There are some fabulous things that would look great in your home.
Survey completed:) And that is a rare thing for me. But I love your sight!!!
Survey completed. I am enjoying every piece of blue and white I’ve ordered from your shop. The quality is excellent! I will be ordering silver soon. Thank you, Tina!!
Well the ginger jar and vase that I recently purchased from you for my sister they are gorgeous!! THe lanterns are wonderful too! It my 50th Birthday weekend so was surprised with a cooking class with friends , you would have loved it Tina!! xo K
Completed the survey Love the Porcelains and the Bell Jar lights. Stormy here in California and enjoying every moment of the wind and rain. We so desperately need the rain.
Just filled out the survey. There are so many things I love in your shop….the Large Round Wood Trivet, the Square Antique Brass Lantern or the Bird Twig Condiment Server. It’s raining out so I’m redecorating my guest room in time for a visit from a friend from New York! Loved reading Secret of a Charmed Life by Susan Meissner….couldn’t put it down!
I love the Chinoiserie Handpainted Pillows. They are really unlike anything I have seen before. Have not purchased anything yet from your site, but intend to, and did take the survey.
I completed the survey, enjoy your blog and shop so much and I think it’s because you share you home and family and that is what makes it feel so friendly! Thanks for sharing!
I finished the survey. My favorite item is the thick cheese board with the silver leaves and bees on the corners. I have bought many items from you but I have received more praise from my friends on this beautiful cheese or serving board
Just finished smocking a dress for my little granddaughter (after 4 sons) & visited the on-line shop for the first time (& took the survey.) I have always decorated with blue and white and collected blue and white porcelain so I was in heaven! Especially loved the tole planters and lamps.
I love your Chinoiserie Pagoda mirror
Just completed the survey, not really sure if I am eligible as live in Australia. Love everything really but in particular the Large ornate fabulous silver tray ! All your silver products look beautiful. It is hard to get silver and you have a beautiful range to choose from. That tray would add elegance to any occasion. Thank you Tina for providing me with a wonderful source of inspiration from across the miles.
I filled out the survey. I’ve had my eye on some of those silver trays!!!
Completed your survey. Love the chinoiserie pagoda mirrors .
Completed the survey. Love the multicolored chunky porcelain ginger jar!
Love all the porcelain and Chinoiserie tole. Your blog and shop have inspired me for almost four years now!
Hello Tina!
I’m sure I’m too late to leave a comment for the weekend, as the weekend has passed. However, I will tell you my favorite catagories in your on-line store.
I love the porcelains as they are timeless, the Bell Jar lighting (producing a soft glow), the Chinoiserie pillows (inviting and lovely) and the blue and white table lamps, which I could have (and do) displayed all over our house. I am a blue and white girl too, however, we have a little Tuscan yellow and raspberry thrown in to the mix to keep it interesting and warm.
BOOKS, I read last month: Big Little Lies, Still Alice, The Sound of Gravel and Me Before You
Yesterday on the plane, I read my Southern Cooking (the “50th”year issue)magazine…all I can say, “is there enough hours in the day to work out after you bake and cook each delicious recipe?”
So here goes, you jogged my memory with your post and reminded me of a trip we just returned from a couple of weeks ago.
Likes: We go to almost all movies (all over the world) and enjoyed “Star Wars” in a darling movie theater in Munich, where, after watching the ice skaters skate outside, we entered the theater, checked our coats, and were handed a glass of champagne while being ushered to our seats. One of our favorite cities on our sabbatical, was Kitzbuhel, Austria. We spent Christmas there with our adult children. Christmas was truly magical in this little Austrian village where everyone strolled through the Christmas Market with a cup of mulled wine in their hands while Christmas music was playing and sleigh drawn horses were taking families on rides. Our ski lodge was centered above this magical village so our daily view was the blue sky and the Austrian Alps surrounding us. We had starry nights each evening. The Catholic Church and cemetery stood in the middle of this sweet, famous World Cup village . The soft warm glow of the candles in the windows, the pretty lights, the families covered with warm blankets in the sleighs and the jingle of the horses bells painted a beautiful Christmas evening for us to remember…
I love so many things in your online site, but especially the beautiful linens
Just completed the survey. All of your large blue & white ginger jars are my favorite!!!
The survey was hard to complete, as there is much to love on your site. Thanks for sharing your life and life style with us.
Tina,
I appreciate that you share your, life, home, photos and musings with all your followers. You always make everything, interesting, entertaining and enjoyable. In the shop, I really love your lamps, especially the small Cavalier “Mamma and Puppies” pair.
Thank you!
Barbara
Finished the survey.
Excited about your new building adventure.
I filled out the survey, and basically love the entire shop. Hoping to buy another blue and white porcelain painter and orchid soon!
Survey completed. Love your porcelain & european Kitchen!!!!
I entered the survey. I am hopelessly in love with the large dragon fishbowl, and I also am coveting a European cutting board.
Just completed your survey which
was my pleasure. Absolutely love your custom silk painted pillows; so unique. And your bird planter as well as the multicolored foot bath/planter which are to die for!
I just completed the survey. It’s hard to pick a favorite – I love the foo dogs, especially the pale gray pair, and the ginger jar lamp!
Everything you have in your shop is just awesome. I love the monogrammed napkins, the pierced silver trays, the orchids, just all of it! Thank you for caring enough to ask for our opinions and feedback, it shows how genuinely concerned you are about your customers and readers. I look forward to your drawings and comments every day.
I completed the survey and especially like the monogrammed cocktail napkins. I adore monogrammed items, and the napkins you carry are beautiful. I bought the cocktIl napkins for a gift, and the recipient was truly grateful.
The price and quality of the monogrammed napkins are a real value.
It would be easier to list what I don’t like, ha ha. Topiaries, gorgeous faux flowers, porcelain, and European kitchen are my top favorites.
I adore your tole selections. I love all things chinoiserie. I took the survey and have my fingers crossed.
Survey is completed. Love all the blue and white porcelain- and the foo dogs and the pillows and, and, and …
Your blog is wonderful. The item I found interesting was in your new arrival section: the fruit handled flower pot. I enjoy reading your blog and find it inspiring how you incorporate the items from your shop into your own home.
Survey is completed. Love all the blue and white porcelain- and the foo dogs and the pillows and, and, and … Everything!
I am late responding and leaving a comment. But nonetheless, I love your site and have ordered many items. I have been so pleased and proud to own all of the blue/white porcelain I ordered. I think the monogrammed linens are to die for and I am going to order white/linen napkins with a royal blue monogram. So excited about setting my dining room table with them for my next dinner party. Also all of the silver is exquisite and of estate quality. As always, what is not to like on your site. I wake up each morning, pop in my contact lens and read your blog. Thanks for making my weekday and weekend mornings bright and cheerful.
