I put the final touches on the wine cork trivets this morning. I made 5 in all, but only had plans to give 4. So the 5th one is mine, unless I have one of those unexpected last minute gift needs. Here are the cherry splines after being sanded flush to the frames. Using spare corks I cut 1/4 inch disks and glue them on the bottom as small feet. All 5 finished and ready to wrap.
I stopped into the Passionate Home this weekend and while I was there
Carrie shared with me some of the exciting finds her pickers have brought in.
Everything from a metal garden stand in its original distressed paint to a mouthwatering
vintage chandelier my heart beats faster for.

I know theres a ton of you out there wanting your own fancy wall frames.
This one just came in so get over to the store and grab it, its not the only one they have.
Of course The Passionate Home has wonderful new items as well.
All the perfect beachy items if you want a seaside theme.
Wonderful spring items including ceramic birds, and framed nests.
Paris storage boxes and large shabby chic candle holders.
These black damask lamps are just a sample of the lighting they offer.
Also a wonderful piece of furniture available is this buttery tall boy paint by Elinor.
The store is regularly open 7 days a week until 5pm each day but

and just to clarify I do NOT work for THE PASSIONATE HOME,
and the only compensation I get is the smiles and friendships of the ladies who run this store. The Passionate Home

I see a little home sweet nest tag on these pretty vintage wood hangers.
That means these are hand painted and embellished by ELISA.
George has MANopolized all the closet space is this house but maybe
some painted pink hangers might get me some.
Thanks Elisa Ill send him your way when he starts to ask whats going on here
And the last thing I want to impart upon you is when you are in the store you never quite see everything. Can you see that Fleur de lis bottle stopper laying in the left side of the bowl.
I didnt and I was take the picture.
Take your time you may find the smallest of treasures.
