______________________________________<\/p>\n

Good evening everyone. Oh boy,\u00a0 I am starting to feel the madness of the holidays creep in ever so slyly. And you<\/em>?\u00a0 I am just taking deep breaths and keep reminding myself that I am doing the best that I can, and that it does always<\/em> get done. This is me, who starts wrapping and buying gifts normally mid December:)<\/p>\n

As I periodically do I share with you recent happenings in my life as seen through the trusty lens of my iPhone. Its a fun way to keep track of what I am up to and of course I only post the good, pretty and inspiring. No one (trust<\/em> me on this) wants to see my bad days, tantrums while stuck in traffic or burnt dinner (yes happened on Sunday) lol<\/p>\n

Anyway moving onto happenings in the last week to ten days, a bit more to share than usual……..<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The above gifts were wrapped up for a special customer (think a Southern Charm star), the icing on the cake were the adorable gift toppers<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And how fabulous are these new arrivals! Our cherry blossom Staffordshire dogs are on their way, these were the sample. Can’t wait to get them in about a week!<\/p>\n

\u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Gorgeous stocking scheming<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Got in our fabulous chinoiserie container…the navy planters and pagoda pet beds have me swooning!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The stuff NYC library dreams are made of….LOVE this navy lacquered library. We are almost done in there, waiting on lighting, a chair and to hang prints<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Look at this festive residence in NYC<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Really liked this place, Dr. Smood, I would go everyday if it was near me. Totally healthy with a great variety and small salads easy to eat on the run!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Anyone else out there get a secret thrill when polishing silver? I love Wrights silver polish, my fave.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

These items are always in my cart when I go to Whole Foods<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Have you tried these bites? They are soooo good and guilt free!<\/p>\n

. \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Finally just 2 days ago took down my pumpkin table setting and started bringing out my beautiful Christmas china (Sasha Nicolas), chargers, flatware and mint julep from my shop (click here to see all silver) all subcategories are on left<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Definitely using an abundance of white roses and eucalyptus this holiday season!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Palmetto Bluff flowers, made these for someone whose house we were going to for drinks<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The next 9-10 (and above) pictures are highlights from a special fundraiser\/evening to honor the life of a dear friends son who passed away far too soon. It was an honor to help with the event and honor his life with this beautiful evening, filled with company of about 130 people, along with world class opera singers, amazing raffles, great food and spirits!<\/p>\n

We were fortunate to have so many incredible sponsors from Ferragamo, Nest candles, London Jewelers, Scout totes and so many more.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

If you spy ginger jars to the right…yes those were my donation:)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This is only a third of what we had….so many amazing prizes!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The opera singers were sensational!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

How pretty are these fabulous antique frames for my design customer? She is starting a collection<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Having such fun working on this nursery, how precious is this darling toile! This is going to be good!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Warehouse candle craziness and getting out tons of orders:) It is our happy chaos!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And look what I saw the other day as I was getting out of the shower!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Hot off the presses, would you stop and admire how fabulous these new custom Scalamandre (fabric is Colony La Perouse) stockings are!! Made for a special customer and I couldn’t resist ordering a few for myself:) With the day I had I needed something pretty and uplifting!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
