West Elm is Now Open!!

Can you hear the excitement in my voice!! I have been waiting for a year for West Elm to finally open in the Raleigh/Durham area. Now I won't have to drive all the way to Charlotte or D.C for a trip to West Elm. YESS!!



My mother-in law was in town this past week and I took a day off of work to go shopping! There were some fabulous items out for the fall!

This is a great DIY idea for organizing your utensils in the kitchen. Burlap and Chalk board labels!




Love the contrast in textures between the white ceramic vases and stick sunburst mirror.



West Elm's displays are always fabulous! Such a mix of colors and textures!



Mercury Glass and faux magnolias...gorgeous!



Now these babies need to come home with me! I love these convex mirrors. Might have to go back and grab a few!



I am also in love with these side chairs. I really want to get two end chairs for our dining table and these beauties have such fabulous curved lines. Might just have to save up!


We also stopped into Restoration Hardware. Remember my post on Double Chandeliers?

Well...check these babies out:



Restoration Hardware sure has changed its vibe over the past couple of years. It has so many unique pieces that you can't find anywhere else like this vintage looking trunk coffee table:



You would seriously need a very large space for that! It looks smaller than it really is! You could fit two bodies inside. (Didn't mean to sound creepy, but it's true! :)




I think this is a fabulous DIY idea! Collect some sheet music of a favorite song, place it on a mat color of your choice and then frame it! Might have to do this someday!



Some great finds out there people!....and so many deals right now!
Happy Monday all!
