In case you missed my new loot for sale yesterday, click here to view. I also guest posted over at Anita's of Cedar Hill Ranch and if you didnt get a chance to visit I hope you will...it was such fun! I do have a few things left (things I had more than 1 or 2 of). It is worth a look and the silver centerpiece and trophy's are particularly great deals if you are in need of one! Moving along.....So, not one of my longer posts but a few things I wanted to share.
I discovered this blog, Beaux Mondes Designs, and really enjoy my visits there. I was "blown away" quite literally by the sheer beauty of this redone backyard/patio...absolute perfection if you ask me.
This should be an ad for World Imports, cannot imagine any more justice being done to this furniture. And of course besides the beautiful furniture, the gorgeous touches of blue and white and a pop of black just make this incredible. Take a look and click here to visit the blog.
Anyone who came up with this idea is an absolute genius in my book....Julio (from the gorgeous backyard above) was the talented mastermind behind such a concept. I would be first in line to snatch these up.......amazing!
Everything is starting to turn green around here and I am loving it........speaking of backyards, I love late day sun, around 6pm, it's my favorite time of the day. Took a few pics with my iPhone, not the best quality but you get the idea.
Who doesn't love a warehouse of bargains! A reminder for anyone who is in the tri state area....this mega warehouse sale is going on this weekend and I can tell you, it is chock full of amazing furniture/accessories all at ridiculously low prices! I am meeting a friend over there to help her choose things for a small apt. they just bought in the city.........
Got these new ginger jars, aren't they beautiful? Unfortunately there is no stock right now so they are getting added to my own personal collection....what can I say (much to my husbands dismay) I don't think you can ever have too many blue and white pieces! (took with my iPhone hence the quality of pics or lack of)
Haven't decided where this pair is going....likely in my bedroom somewhere
This is the darker pair...gorgeous!
Love this one, its so pretty...really really trying to get my hands on more!
And this one which I do have limited quantities of, now on my online site, she's a beauty!
Very tall about 26"...a real "statement jar"
Going to be making this one day soon when I have guests...how good does it look and best part it's simple! LOVE anything with figs, cheese and pastry and I bet the rosemary gives it a wonderful zing. I bet the flavors really awaken your taste buds! Found this at Willow Bird Baking. (Click on Willow Bird Baking for recipe)
Quick Rosemary, Fig, and Goat Cheese Tarts
Shoes......been on a bit of a kick lately since its finally time for our toes to have their closeup! Had some fun over at Rue La La a few days ago. They sell out fast but have to say the prices were right! I snagged these....
Shop news....very sad to hear that the factory that makes the gorgeous white Staffordshire dogs (a top seller for me) is closing :( I bought the remaining 14 pair of white dogs, they are so beautiful that pictures cannot do them justice. Truly stunning, look like a pair of antique dogs. So if you have had your eye on them....don't wait too long! They sell for 95.00 but I am going to sell this remaining lot for 85.00 which is a really excellent price. If interested email me here. (theenchantedhome@gmail.com)
Also going to be getting in a small batch of round dough bowls in the next week or so. They will be on average 15-18" round and are said to be gorgeous. The smaller rounds are hard to come by, I am expecting 6-8 pieces. Many of you inquire about them so if you definitely want one, absolutely email me here.
For all who loved the antlers, I sold out of all 3 pair I have 2 of these coming this week. These are exceptional...if interested just email me. They are quite large and spectacular, about 34" wide.
So that's about it over here....going to head over to my local nursery and see whats sprouting...its a gorgeous day and a perfect day to do some planting to a few neglected planters starving for some attention. Wishing everyone a fabulous day and a wonderful weekend. I am going to be giving away a wonderful Mother's Day giveaway next week so stay tuned!
Good Morning Tina! Wow!! World Market has never looked so good. Love the blog too. Silverware - what a fabulous idea. Your back yard looks gorgeous. I love 6PM too - could have something to do with the wine in my glass, tho! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteDon't know where to begin.........a post FULL of yumminess!! Love it all! Want it all!
ReplyDeleteTina that backyard in the beginning of the post is incredible, thank you for sharing it. Your random posts are always my favorite, love your new shoes, the wonderful new blue and white jars and of course your backyard is my dream!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the recipe too, I have made many things you have posted and all have been fantastic. Hope you have a nice weekend. I will email you about the dogs, I want a pair!
Love the pics of the late afternoon sun on your patio. I can imagine sitting there, soaking up the last rays of the day. A glass of chilled white would make it even more pleasant :). xx Sharon

Good Morning Tina:) Fun line up topics! I agree the evening light is so pretty. The sky is still light in the pacific northwest until 8 or 9 at this time of year (until June). Tonight we will enjoy our first alfresco dinning ~ area heater in all! I'm loving all the blue and white porcelain! You're right.. you can't get enough! Thanks for the intro to the blog:)
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
Oh, I love the black and white at the beginning so, so much!!
ReplyDeleteThe awnings in that outdoor space really take it to the next level - what a great outdoor space! And that goat cheese tart?? Yummy! But the four seasons flatware...that is one of the best tabletop ideas I have seen in a long time! Have a great weekend Tina!
ReplyDeleteSo much to love here! Love those antlers, of course all that blue and white (you are right never enough) and that wonderful blog you made mention of, what a beautiful patio! The awning adds so much and has me thinking.....
ReplyDeleteThat tart sounds so good, I am going to have to try that, love your random musings Tina.
You sure know how to make a post full of fun. I love hearing all your tips and recommendations, love the patio with the awning and your backyard is nothing short of paradise.
ReplyDeleteLove your taste in shoes, I live in flats, being 5'10" my husband would have it no other way haha.
All the new blue and white jars are so pretty, Tina and look so at home in your beautiful place.
Hope you have fun at the nursery, I planted my tomatoes this morning, hoping it will be an early summer. Love stopping by to see what you are up to. Enjoy your weekend.
I didn't know World Imports furniture could look so good, but it sure does! I can't wait to visit that blog!

ReplyDeleteAnd of course love all you posted, from the shoes to the tart recipe and of course love all that blue and white! Hope you are enjoying a wonderful weekend. Take care Tina and give Mr.Teddy a hug.
TINA! Oh yeah, OH YEAH! That Beau Monde collection is stunning. I adore black and white stripes or checkered patterns; it is so chic and European elegance! AND LOOK AT YOUR PATIO AREA! Fit for a magazine, Tina! I am glad you are enjoying your weather. We are not there yet, but we are pushing for 70+ weather next week.
ReplyDeleteYour chaise lounge and chairs are perfect. LOVE! Anita

Hello Tina,

I found you through Cedar Hill Ranch, and I am still in awe of your truly enchanting home. I strive to achieve the ornate "castle" look as best I can in my small home in Oklahoma. {If you venture over, you'll see what I mean throughout my Home Tour page.} Granted, I have 2 toddlers and still buy diapers, so I work on a garage sale budget! ;) In any event, your home is one that I would love to emulate. This new follower says, "Tres magnifique!"
ReplyDeleteXOXO,
Meredith
Love that outdoor space Tina... Enjoy the sunshine... xv
ReplyDeleteYour article is very interesting Beautifull photos and great blog to read thank you
ReplyDeleteTina-I could sit there all day, but the sun is amazing! Just gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteLove the jars of course.
So much beauty here, and the tart looks delish!

The silver is brilliant! That tart combination sounds wonderful. Great brunch idea?
ReplyDeleteHi Tina, that patio is so beautiful. I left a comment to tell them as much, I am so inspired to start my own, we have a small one and this one doesn't look huge but its so beautiful. I am excited about the possibilities! The flatware idea is so genius!
ReplyDeleteLove all you share from the shoes to all those beautiful blue and whites, and agree you can never have too many. I got my anchor tote and love it, already used it for brunch this morning. Thanks for offering so many wonderful items.
Have a nice Sunday.
Blown away is right! That black and white patio is to die for!!! Gorgeous...must see more. And that flatware. That is pure genius. I love every one of those patterns and this way you get to enjoy them all. LOVE!
ReplyDeleteSo many beautiful things in your shop right now. I don't know how you resist keeping it all! :)
Gorgeous day on this side of the Sound, too. Already had 2 flag football games and trying to get organized to do some fajita grilling and margarita making later on.
Have a great Sunday, Tina!
xoxo Elizabeth
