Christmas Decor at White Interiors

Hello everyone!

My sister and I got together for my birthday recently and we went to a store called White Interiors.  It's located in Dawsonville, GA.  It was my first time going there, but she had been before.  I loved it the moment we walked in.  It was getting set up for their Christmas open house so I thought I would share some pics with you today. 






As you can tell, it's a rustic style store mixed with traditional furnishings.






This is what we saw as soon as we walked in the door.  It really set the tone for the entire store.


This was a beautiful Christmas tree decorated with pheasant feathers and pine cones.

















I loved how they filled this dough bowl with antlers, pine cones and Spanish moss.


For you crafty ones, here's a great idea for decorating a crate for the holidays.  They just outlined a Christmas tree shape in white Christmas lights and hung ball ornaments from the wire. A birch log cut flat on one side makes the base and a star is added to the top.



I loved this cotton ball wreath hung with burlap ribbon.  I have one similar to this on my front door for Fall.


I won't be breaking out the Christmas decor until after Thanksgiving, but it's fun to see the inspiration that is out there.

Hope you will come back later this week when I share something new that I'm getting as an early Christmas present!  Also, my sister gifted me something AMAZING and I can't wait to share it with you.

Thanks for stopping by.

My Fun Finds from the Country Living Fair

Hello everyone!

I can finally share what I bought from the Country Living Fair recently.

  I always stop at the French Laundry booth when I first get there.  They are known for beautiful bedding, table linens, and pillows.  They never disappoint with their good prices and high quality.  It's such a treat to get to choose something from their booth.  Normally, their linens sell for much more at stores, but they offer special pricing at the fair.  This is the third year in a row that I've bought pillows from them. This year, they offered pillow covers as well.  They cost even less so I just bought the covers this year instead.  I have plenty of inserts at home!

Here is the first pillow.


As always, I go for the French style pillow covers.  This one is cream and grey.  Then I bought 2 matching pillow covers that were cream and blue.




I like how the back of these have just the blue stripes and no lettering.  So, it's like getting 2 pillows in one.

My favorite find is this old fashioned sign!


It's hand painted on some old chippy painted wood.  It's made to look like an arrow too.  It is hung above my sofa in the family room.


And finally, I fell in love with this old wooden crate.  A guy was selling them for just $20.  He had so many I couldn't have counted them all!  He said they came from a blueberry farm.  You can see the writing on the front.


I used it on top of the bookcase in my kitchen and filled it with topiaries.  

I recently re accessorized this bookcase since I now have a pantry to store my food in. This used to be filled with bins, but now it has dishes in it.  I will show you that soon.

So that is my "show and tell" from the County Living Fair 2015!  I hope they will come back to Atlanta again next year.  If they do, I will definitely make another trip.  

Thanks for stopping by!  

Have a wonderful weekend.

Country Living Fair Part 2

Hello everyone!

How was your weekend?  Mine was good.  The weather turned out not as good as I had hoped, but I celebrated my birthday on Saturday and had a fun time with family and friends anyway. 

I thought I would share the second half of my pictures from the Country Living Fair in Stone Mountain, GA.  I enjoyed seeing so many unique and pretty things for sale.

I loved this giant Christmas tree made out of a grain sack.






There were lots of vintage looking signs around the fair this year.







This pic is a bit blurry, but I loved these necklaces made from stamped spoons.





These topiaries were beautiful, but I didn't buy one because I wasn't sure I would keep it alive.  I'll just stick with my fakes!













Loved these cute hand made signs.  These are also sold online.


So, that is it for the Country Living Fair 2015 in GA.  I will wait patiently till it rolls around next year!  In my next post, I will show you what I bought.

Thanks for stopping by!

Giveaway Winner & The Country Living Fair

Hello everyone!

Happy Friday to you all.  This is going to be a great weekend since the weather here is nice and it's Halloween.  

Thanks to all of you who signed  up for the sheet set giveaway. I wish I could pick more than one winner.  But there can only be one.   The winner is Jennifer Schmitz!  Congratulations! 

Last Friday, my sister and I went to the Country Living Fair at Stone Mountain GA.  It's something I look forward to every year.  This year was another great show.  I took some pics to share with all of you.  I will divide this up into two posts since I took so many pics.  
































I will share the second half of these pics in my next post.  As you can see, there were a lot of unique things for sale.  It was extremely crowded and a bit hot as the day wore on. I was very tired after I got home from this one!  I bought a few cute things too that I can't wait to show you!

Have a super weekend and a safe Halloween!
