This just might need to come home with you

  • How fabulous is this rug?
  • Pretty awesome, right?
  • It could be yours. 
  • It is a brand new, 100% wool, hand tufted 7'6" x 9'6" union jack rug.
  • I will be bringing this to the shop tomorrow.



This is a cute childs desk but you can use it as a side table too. 


I am thinking of keeping this, you know me and bikes.  

Amazing. 
Love this vintage lamp I picked up on my way home tonight. 
Working on finding a good shade for this fella. 



Two person bench but wait there is a twin.  I have two of these benches that will be making it to the store next week.  I have a bridal shower this weekend that I am going to use them at then they can come home with you. I hope that is alright with you. 

I have been busy on this dresser.
I love the way it turned out. 



Another favorite of mine right now. 
This two tiered weathered table is sturdy and a great piece to have in your home. 


A few small painted pieces.

A whole lotta silver coming to Poppy & Co. 

Two matching white glass vases.  Very versatile and classic. 

Almost forgot to add this little one in. 
Smallish gray side table.

Here is a sneak peek at my shop space along with Alison from Modern Cottage Co. 


One of my all time favorites that I have finished. 
I just adore this union jack table-desk. 





I have always loved paper, stationary, ephemera etc. You name it, I love it. Remember this awesome picking find?  Well Jay and I cleaned the baskets, cut wood to fit, stained it and had our genius friend, Robby fix a wheel...this baby is all fixed up. 
Sorry it is not for sale. I love it too much. 
It currently holds treat bags, library cards and other little must haves. 







Remember this piece for awhile back?
Well she has received a fresh coat of blue paint and a poly sealer.  She is at the shop and ready to go home with you. 


I am having a garage sale at my house this weekend.  Loving this sunshine!  Hope you had a fabulous Fourth of July!

New for you!


Please forgive me for the following photos.
I was halfway to the shop when I realized that my camera that I kept telling myself to not forget, i forgot. 
Go figure. 
It was pouring down rain and I did not feel like tarping up furniture so I just brought a few new things in to the store tonight. 

My newest favorite, a chevron painted table. 
I have a few other pieces with the similar design on it getting ready for the Ruffles and Rust show. 
{Have you bought your tickets for Friday night?}


We brought in 10 more of the mason jar soap pumps.



This adorable side table is painted in a Restoration Hardware color, Silver Sage. 
Isn't she lovely?


Alison, {The Modern Cottage Co.} and some of the other gals from the shop spent the day rearranging the check out counter and their spaces in the shop. 
I took photos but they turned out a little fuzzy so I promise to take better ones next week.  

I love this vignette Alsion put together with pieces from each of our areas.

Happy {almost} Friday!!
Tonight after work we loaded up the truck,
{2003 Dodge Ram w\ 83k miles interested?}
and headed out to Tacoma to stock the booth and move some pieces around. 

It was also the teenager's first time checking out the shop. 
She was impressed.  We drove around the city for a bit, checked out a few new shops and ended up having dinner at The Old Spaghetti Factory. 
Love that place.
