My passion, after my family of course, is Treasure Hunting. The simple beauty of things from by-gone eras have always spoken to me. Whether these treasures are found at a flea market, fine antique store, estate sale, thrift shop, or in the family attic, surprises abound.
As an interior designer, I believe it is vital to balance your decor by including found and family treasures. Surrounding yourself with things you love should always be the goal, from there you will find your true style.
As I shop, I may have a client in mind or I may want to resell at our french flea market or in my shop. I am lucky to have several outlets for my treasures including my own home! I plan to share my searching, hunting, travels, and treasures with you and encourage you to enjoy adding your treasures to your home.

Independence Day Tradition

Today, in the U.S. we celebrate the birth of our nation. Like many modern holidays we have taken creative license with what the day is truly about. You know what I mean, Santa and the Easter come to mind. Well, the 4th of July has always been a fun day in our home. It is officially our "F" day! The "F"ourth brings us a wonderful combination of family, friends, food, festivities and of course fireworks.
A house full of people, coming and going. It is the one time of year we see many of our son's childhood friends... We get to catch up with them and reflect upon their childhood antics! To me, this is the official start of summer, my favorite time of year. Summer brings us late al fresco dinners, movies out side, casual relaxed meals and best of all Sunday family dinners.  
Happy 4th of July!
I will be tag-sale hunting this weekend... highlights to come.
Happy treasure hunting!
