Christmas Monograms

Christmas was crazy around here! We did tons of monogramming...it's all a blur really. We thought you might want to see some of the beautiful things that we did for all of our wonderful customers. Thanks to all of you for a great Christmas season!

friday at the shop...

All these GORGEOUS things arrived from Matouk yesterday. The metallic guest towels, tissue box covers, candles and soaps make perfect holiday gifts!

Wedding Monograms

Recently we teamed up with Emily McCarthy at emmajdesign to create some amazing wedding monograms! We've been using unique combinations of the bride and groom's initials.

Emily has been using it on all the wedding invitations and we've been stitching them out onto throw pillows, napkins and tablecloths (for use at the wedding and then for the couple afterwards!). This stunning combination of J&S were for a wedding at the Ford Plantation in Savannah last month. Their colors were natural linen and a dark eggplant.

Give us a call if you would like more information about setting up your custom wedding monogram. 912.443.0065

Thanksgiving

Here are some photographs of the very colorful Thanksgiving dinner I hosted last Thursday evening. Using over sized monogrammed French Linen napkins and tulips this is what we can up with.

Belton Lane Entry Hall

I thought I'd share some pictures of the Belton Lane project I've been working on. It's been a great project with our client...who is so much fun to work with! We have gradually made it through the house and now we're down to those final touches that make it a home.

In the entry way we needed to work with the deep yellow walls and the black and crystal chandelier. So we started with a vintage metal console table and mirror we found in Florida and re-painted black. Then we added a tall marble lamp and some pretty books. A seagrass runner adds a little texture when you come in the door.

We tried three different options for a stool under the console. The first was a vintage x bench we swiped from the living room that we had recovered in a hot pink and orange print. The second option was a white lacquered stool. And the third was an caramel leather ottoman by Suzanne Kasler. Which one is your favorite? I'd love to know!

Here is the before picture from a different angle...sorry it's so blurry (from my phone!)

The holidays are officially upon us here at the shop! Here are some gold inspirations for the holidays...








And my mantle with some gold pinecones in big glass jars and golden fig vases...



Little touch of gold in a John Robshaw hand-painted bolster pillow (that's Mia in the corner snoozing)...
