weekend reading........

....before I sign off for the weekend I want to tell you all about a new book that I recently purchased { actually my man purchased it for me! he knew I wanted it sooooo very badly but was feeling guilty about buying another book so soon after my three purchases last week! I love that man!}........anyway, back to the matter at hand........

Stan Williams is the author of this very fun book called the find : the housing works book of decorating with thrift shop treasures, flea market objects, and vintage details. I am still in the process of reading it from cover to cover, but am loving the gorgeous photography and the information and ideas behind his style of using repurposed objects and high end finds together to unleash the imagination in decorating. I mean with quotes like..."the trick is to see beyond nicks and wobbles, color and intended purpose and to focus on potential"........he had me at nicks and wobbles! I have truly enjoyed this beautiful book and know that you my friends will enjoy it as well! Stan also has a blog called the elegant thrifter where he is quite witty and full of great tips.....so be sure to stop by and say hello........

happy weekend friends........xoxo
