BE BACK SOON…

This is me right now at my new house….

I’m imagining my garage at my old house looks something like this.  I haven’t been in a few days.  Never moving again!!   I’ll be back soon.

GETTING THERE…..

I’m just about settled into my new home, but unfortunately not out of my old home.  Still much work to be done.  Tomorrow is garage day, and I’m dreading that!  I hope to be back to regular posting mid-week.  For now, here is a picture of the new office of Atlantis Home and Sea of Shoes.  Jane and I threw some leftover pieces together, but I’m pleased with how it turned out.  Simple and clean.

Remember the headboard I posted earlier?  Here is the finished product.

There was a lot of interest in the fabric on my sofa and dining chairs.  I love it!!  Here is what I know about it.  It was designed by Jack Lenor Larsen, and my pieces were done in 1972.  I’m lucky the pieces I got are in such great shape.  I don’t know if it is available now.  I hope it is, I will be so sad when I have to reupholster the pieces that I have, it is truly the coolest fabric, and Shelly loves it too.

I found this (actually a pair) browsing on Ebay last night.  They’re kind of pricey though.

I found these decanters at an antique mall, I think I’ll start a collection.  Love the crackle glass.

There are a lot of new jewelry pieces on the site, have a look.

A FEW PICTURES FROM MY NEW PLACE

I’m still busy unpacking boxes, trying to get my washer and dryer hooked up, and get Internet connection–but here are a few shots from inside my new home.  I never, ever want to move again!

I found the most amazing 70′s faux malachite coffee table at Again and Again in Dallas.

I’m sure the living room looks familiar.

I’m very fond of this paper mache tiger–his face is so great.

This is actually my bedroom–it’s really quite large.  The sofa is another great find from Again and Again.

Another view of the dining room.

Always room for a shoe shot.  I hope to be connected the world again soon–till then, it’s back to my boxes….

STILL MOVING……BUT

Found two of these cute little  twin headboards for my new place.  I’m going to mount them together for my king size bed.  This head board has cats, and the other has birds.  Great 70′s pieces.

My fire place in the new house….

My new home couldn’t be complete without my life size brass deer keeping a watch over things.

I won’t have Internet until the 13th, but I will try to stop by a coffee shop or whatever so I can check in–in the meantime, more boxes to load.    TTFN!

PROPERTY STALKING

If you follow me on Twitter, you know I’ve been raving about all of the wonderful and unique homes in Dallas.  Here is a great example–I just love this!   Such great use of  what could have been an odd 70′s building.

I really hate neglecting my blog, but I’ve got a few more days of heavy moving left to do.  Wish me luck!

MY NEW PLACE

Happy Friday everyone.  I apologize for being absent for so long.  Jane and I are both moving into our new homes, and I leased my present house to a very sweet young couple from Chicago.  I have to get all of my belongings out of my house, so this has left me little time for anything else.  Questioning my sanity right now in terms of how much stuff I have accumulated.

Here is peek at my new place.  All of the beautiful iron work is original 1968.  It’s the cutest little house, and I can’t wait to share more pictures of it with you all.

That’s it for now–I hope everyone has a great weekend ahead!!

Karen has made some beautiful one of kind pieces of jewelry–they’re on the site.  Have a look here.

IN DALLAS

Jane and I went shopping at some of our favorite antique stores in Dallas yesterday looking for things to furnish Jane’s apartment with.  Jane is so excited to move out and have her own place.  I wore my favorite leopard coat found at the thrift store, and one of my favorite pair of Margiela shoes.

               Left this behind, but I really loved it.

Great table base.

This is wonderful.

I loved this painting.  So quirky-kind of Mulan meets Thumbelina.

Todd and I exploring the grounds at Jane’s new place.

I loved the grouping of these items.

Jane and I both thought these two made the most wonderful couple, they came home with us.

SHAGGY SWEATER

I really like this sweater I purchased from StyleNanda.  Jane and I have been frequenting their site a lot lately and I know a lot of you have too.  So how has your experience been with them?  Ours has been mostly positive–but we’re still missing a few pieces and all of the correspondence is in Korean–so I’m not always sure where are orders stand.

 

Still completely obsessed with my gold boots from YOOX.

MAGICAL BOOTS

I was so happy when these magical little gold boots arrived yesterday.  I great find on Yoox.   They’re Marc by Marc Jacobs.

I had a great time shooting them on Jane running through the woods–I’ll let her borrow them this once.  :)

You can see more of our photo shoot at SeaofShoes.

Cute metallic Guiseppe Zanotti ankle boots here.
