Another Shopping Spot

It has been a while since I had chance to post...but work has been a bit crazy, with family stopping by in between. Still, I make it a point to shop when I can and I thought I would share another spot I frequent.
Here is another favorite...Go-To store... when I'm in need of something special for a project or clients home....it's called The Arrangement and it's located in Castle Hills in San Antonio Texas. The Owners are a Mother/Daughter team...who love to scout for antiques and find creative Floral Designers to create the most beautiful arrangements. I'd advise you to take your time when visiting...there is so much to look at, that it will take you several trips around the store to make sure you didn't miss a thing.
These Owners enjoy finding many Garden Decor items...such as wrought iron, from window pieces, to large cement figurines used for art and not just water features. This store can be a sensory overload...but worth your time to visit and check out how they made the pieces come together.
The Arrangement...has a wonderful way to display the old with the new...the look is so eclectic, it makes every piece look fresh...from old lace, to reupholstered chairs. I hope to go back and take some sharper pictures for your enjoyment...it was a last minute trip...so my phone was handy for this visit.

Holiday Weekend


Well-loved hamper decorated with a collage of porcelain dolls, lace and antique jewelry.


These pictures were taken in an Antique store on Main Street, which had eclectic choices... from European to American collectibles....lot's of Religious artifacts, Garden decor and Lighting.

Over the weekend while visiting Fredreicksburg, Texas , I found this wonderful Alley Way on Main Street with some large wrought iron gates resting against the stone walls of the store buildings. Just imagine the majestic homes these once adorned?

Back In Time


Couldn't resist taking a quick picture of my favorite drink...Dr.Pepper & it's original Ice Box.

Station is filled with antique Filling Station wares...it's like stepping back into time...kept looking for Gomer Pile to clean the window.
This quaint little town of "Waring, Texas"is just north of San Antonio on IH 10. Pop. 50? Just kidding. I don't really know though, but it's a frequent stop for picture takers and weekend Bikers. No real shopping, just a quiet place to stop, relax, eat and think about how our parents lived way back when.
