intuition

rocky and pinky have both reminded me that my faith and spirituality are guiding me on my journey...recently i travelled to birmingham the place of my birth and where the bulk of my family reside...it was dismal...rainy day after rainy day....i dreamed of the sunny beaches of cumberland and the warm love of fernandina...arent we the luckiest people to live in this paradisiaiacle realm...scouted the competition there and realized once again just how fantastical our store really is and how completely wonderful is robyn's eye for great stuff...thanks to todd and brian for allowing us to help get their house together for the holiday tour...these guys rocked a former burned out crackhouse into an incredible reno....we are also thankful for so many wonderful clients....the big "C" and the beautiful eccentric diva, the Reverend "P" and all the new design clients that are having so much fun redoing their spaces....cant wait to come home and play for a bit before i return to savannah....see you soon plscpv

Perusing the shops in Birmingham is the place to be if you love candles. It must be the season! Philip reported that we are still in the top ten! WooHoo! We all know that is one opinion that has merit! Seriously, great eye! I feel good!

Happy Holidays to your family and travel safe!

indian summer...can i still say that....oh yea i can

i am so happy about this muggy weather...it is almost november and i am not freezing yet...woo hoo!!! october is my favorite month of the year anywhere in the southeast...when the air cools down just a bit and you can smell the fires burning and taste the tailgate whisky in your teeth and the homecoming queen is so pretty waving from the parade float...i heard they don't throw candy anymore bc it isn't safe...i hope that's not accurate....i remember being a little boy on the sidewalk in front of the elementary school back in the days when the entire school moved outside to watch the parades go by....or my mom checked us out to go downtown to watch from the sidewalk in front of Asman's department store where i was the little boy newspaper model....and later riding with my scout troop or on a club float...so that said i love fireworks and parades about as much as orange juice and good tequila....also i want everyone to know that the best best best tasting fructacular experience is available now at the natty foods and other grocers...fuji generally leads the market for overall sugar and juice content but grab yourself a sweet sweety called HONEYCRISP...truly the apple to beat all other apples...i feel like a hayride and a haunted house...anybody wanna go?
robyn is recently returned from market...yes she shops alot...woo hoo...i cant wait to see all the treasures...i know she ordered a tree trunk planter for me to use in a project...maybe a moss mound or orchid composition...then again i do like succulents a great deal too....cumberland is alive with migratory birds and gators and a great deal more humans than i am accustomed to...the secret is out...creek nation baby....plscpv

In Your Own World

Wondering what to do? Watching too much HGTV? Why doesn't my house look like that? The first steps include (1) ideas, (2) cleaning, (3) organizing and (4)asking for help. Baby steps aren't all bad. Sometimes we expect too much too soon. (thank you tv land). Find your taste and bump it up a little. Become educated and discerning. Acquire treasures and relish in your acquisitions. "You don't have to live like a refugee"!

What can we do for you?

Everyone has a different perception of their own home and often what is in that person's head, is not happening in that home. We very often hear..."Oh, I love to come here for ideas"...then soon after that we hear..."it just doesn't look like it did in your store or online"! First of all, online shopping scares me. I am forced to do it through many of my vendors, but I don't like it! That is why I travel long distances and walk my feet off to find the most interesting things around.

The world is full of beauty and artists are always creating. It is in their DNA, they can't stop. (I like to give those talented folks their due.) I am happy that people like to browse, we encourage it! That is how you learn, how you acquire taste. Take adavntage of those that are skilled and ask for help. Designers have a wealth of knowledge, if you will just give them some freedom and a little trust, the results are pretty fabulous!

We offer help in these areas. We can teach you to put it together and recommend designers and other artisans and contractors to assist you in your quest. For those of you who know what you like, but need resources, we are here for you, too!

You don't have to live like a refugee!

Lady Caucasia

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!!!!!!! Announcing the return of the one and only Lady Caucasia...after a long summer of relaxing at Fort White...scrapbooking until the papercuts and glue vapors were just too much....Ellen is coming back to resume her role as receiving director....good thing because that department is in need of some serious management....and all the fingerprints on glass tables, mirrors and eglomise chests are ready to be cleaned....and Janice just can not be bothered. If you visit the shop look for the blonde with the windex and introduce yourself to Lady C.

seasons change

summer in our region has peaked it seems...we are still under the brutal wonderful heat but those who live and play outside, beyond the comforts of climate controlled environments can surely feel wind and water shifting towards the next season...a season that might be called light summer....september can be mega hot too...but i love the heat...our sale has ended and we moved out some great pieces at huge discounts....difficult not to find something great with the entire store at thirty percent off regular retail...look for our next sale in the upcoming year....also check out Barbara's client in this issue of the islander...plscpv
