annual holiday party at the willows!

Men's Night Out is Back!

Friday, December 5th!

It's that time of year again!

Can you believe it's already been a year? Neither can we!

We have another amazing day planned for all our lovely ladies and the men who love them!

We will have the famous Grilled Cheese Truck from 11am-2pm

Our favorite local jewelry artists, JewelYa, Dos Fannies, and Dayna Hall will be here in the afternoon.

This PARTY will go into the evening with Mexican Food, Beer, Wine, and Tapas!

Our Fall party at the Willows with My Waffle Crush was a huge success!  If you missed that fun, you will not want to miss out on all we have in store this Friday at the Willows!

So, ladies, don't forget to stop in for a Grilled Cheese and fill out your wish list in the afternoon, so the men in your life know exactly what to get you this Christmas!

Hope to see you all there!!!

our sweet retreat

 

We stayed with the most amazing couple on their gorgeous property while we were in Texas for Round Top.  It was like a dream...

We absolutely fell in love with this little painting cottage they had built on their property...

the prairie

And, of course, we had to stop by The Prairie by Rachel Ashwell...

 

Cornering the market on bread boards...

 

We might have bought every bread board we came across...

round top antique fair!

Susan Rose and I had the extreme good fortune to head to Round Top, Texas this year for their annual antique fair, with the lovely Mary Emmerling showing us the way!  It was like a dream come true!  Rows and rows and rows of tents spread out over acres under that big, blue Texas sky.  Thank goodness we had Mary (a Round Top veteran) to show us the way or we might have been completely overwhelmed!  We came back to Phoenix with a whole truck full of amazing treasures for the shop and for some lucky design clients!  Stay tuned for what we will have in the store!

My heart just about jumped out of my chest when I saw this lovely sight...

Oh, linen.  I do love you so :)

We were keeping our eye out for some amazing, one of a kind pieces for some design clients...

Your heart would skip a beat seeing all the amazing chandeliers lining tent after tent...

And it is all so charming with chandeliers even hanging in the trees...

Trying to feed this beautiful, wild horse in a nearby field...  

I may have almost been bit :)  Luckily, he just got my bag, but it was a close one! 

They may be lovely, but be wary of wild horses!

Susan and Mary Emmerling...

Our favorite booth...

 She was from Michigan and simply walked down the beach collecting driftwood to come here and build this beautiful structure.  We were simply charmed by her whole set-up...

And, Round Top is certainly a fun place to people watch!  Just one of the many characters we met...

Just a sampling of some things "not coming to the Willows"...

The cars were lined up for miles...

What a fun week we had!  Thanks girls for the great time!
