White Wednesday

Welcome to White Wednesday hosted by Kathleen of Faded Charm

I had planned on showing you what I worked on yesterday but that's ok it can wait. I didn't want to miss another White Wednesday.....one of my favorites to participate in. I've gotten to know so many great ladies from this weekly post and have found we share more then just the love of White.

Thank you so much for the wonderful comments about Marcia's shop NEST. It was fun to read how many of you from around the world have been to Mystic and many of you lucky ones had been to NEST. Some of you now wanted to come visit the shop.  I didn't mention it last time but the shop was featured in Victoria magazine a few years ago. I found the it about 16 yrs ago by accident while with a friend but couldn't remember the name. It drove us crazy that we couldn't find it again but we never forgot it. Imagine how thrilled I was when she told me she had rediscovered it again. I knew she would!!! there isn't an inch of this State she doesn't know.....but that's another post!

Today I want to show you Marcia's good friend Michelle's shop

Taken for Granite

in Stony Creek part of the town of Branford, Ct.

They often shop together and share merchandise but they both have unique looks.
It's nice that they have each other to bounce ideas off of.

The pictures I chose to show are mostly white though I had taken more. I can show you the others if your interested in seeing them.

Ok I wasn't spinning in the room like you might think. I guess I just like angles!

These star lights are so pretty and put out a lot of light unlike the ones I have. Mine have a antique finish on the inside and it's nice but not enough light comes thru. I've considered scrapping the finish off but it doesn't seem practical.

My friend Kathleen bought one of these candlesticks....I have a better picture of it I'll show later. It looked old but without the "antique price tag".

They have tons of different shells for sale most of the year.

The Christmas items had all been put away so it was a clean palette of white and pale blues to welcome in the rest of the Winter season.

A charming display of leaf shaped soaps to grace a bathroom.

You can't really tell from this picture but the shell that was used to display the other ones was huge.... almost 2'.

It was magnificent and I think probably just used for display.

I have a designer friend that only uses BIG objects when she's decorating a home. It's like I hear her voice telling me "GO BIG!!!"   everytime I think  "where would I put that????"

Ok that ends another White Wednesday for me!!! I hope you get a chance to visit Taken for Granite and Nest when your in the area.

Please go visit the other participants when you go visit Kathleen!!!!

Make it a good and productive day!!!
