ROUND TOP!

Had a great day at the Marburger Show in Round Top on Tuesday.

 I thought there were some really beautiful Antiques, I just didn't need.  The unfortunate part of the trip was a good portion of everything I just LOVED and wanted, was already SOLD!

Next time I plan to hit the "fields" before the big show and arrive EXTRA early on the day of Marburger to try and snag those special finds before someone else does!

Though I came away with very little merchandise, I did accomplish a  "recharge" of my creative juices.  I felt very inspired for creating some new products and got some great decorating ideas.

I thought I would share some of my snapshots from my phone so you can see what caught my eye...

Marburger...





Lots of gorgeous silver...

Tortoise was a reoccurring theme throughout... 

These would be so cute for a house by the water... 


I really want a canoe for summer, love the blue on the inside of this one... though more decorative, otherwise I would sink!


Lots of great Turkish Kilims..


Bought these big guys for a client... Going to look great with fabric shades!



I really loved these... maybe a future item for MM...

 Loved these fabulous Obelisks in a Turquoise / Verde Gris finish!

My next DIY... painted tree branches, would make a great center piece! 


 A few asian inspired items... 



Antique Zinc trim would be so pretty in a powder room as a border... 


Haven't decided what I would do with these, but they were too great not to photo...



Round Top is a darling little town, and if you are ever planning a trip to that part of  Texas in spring or fall  it's definitely worth a trip to the show... There is great energy; lots of dealers, designers, and just general lovers of antiques.  

Hope to see you there next time!
