Del Ray Consignment Adventures

My friend and designer Nancye Lewis, of Rabbit Runn Designs, introduced me to two fabulous consignment shops in Del Ray, a darling neighborhood of Alexandria, Virginia yesterday:  Potomac West Antiques and Not too Shabby Consignments. Both are full of possibilities - I ran around saying "I want this, I want that, I love this, I love that!" I could have left with a wagon-full.

Take a look.





I want this, I need this, I LOVE this...pretty please.







I want a few of these too...

I sort of shrieked when I saw this...would be a fun, very over the top desk chair.



I had to click this photo for Tricia Huntley of Huntley & Co. - she has a similar one in her office, maybe it needs a friend?

A vintage map of my home state! This really thrilled me.

Hardware treasure hunt.


Bamboo + Cane = Lovestruck. Enough said.

Everyone needs a charming little Cotswold painting...

What I left with...


I have a thing for pitchers...this one "had to" come home with me.


My guest room "work in progress" will soon have a wall of frames and funky mirrors...these will be included. I'll post pictures once I tackle that project.
