Dana Gibson

Here is a lamp that I just moved to my kitchen counter. I absolutely love it and purchased it from Dana Gibson-it is a one of a kind. She has a studio in Richmond, Virginia that is fun to visit and see her one of a kind pieces. I could of purchased many more things. If you haven't seen her work-you can log onto her website and see all that she has to offer. She has many of her items at local stores-check the store listing page on her website. She is so talented and I hope to acquire more pieces along the way. (I just need to figure out how to hide these cords behind the lamp)

New Lamp in more colors!

New Piece that would work in my living room-A must have!

I have two of these in my guest room.

Happy Shopping!

A few of my favorite things!

I was thinking of my list of favorite things and I thought of two. New York City and MacKenzie-Childs. Oh, and I forgot about diet coke.
I don't drink coffee, so my first stop in the morning is McDonad's for my medium (sometimes large) diet coke!
Here is a picture of my dining room. I recently had it painted and hung the Mackenzie-Childs Plates on the wall and a Dana Gibson plate on my sideboard.
Let me tell you they are so heavy and I pray they are not going to fall down in the middle of the night! I purchased the plates at the MacKenzie Childs store in New York.
My hubby and I went to NYC last October with two other couples that my husband went to college with. What a fabulous trip and such a distant memory.
I am sad thinking hubby and I don't have another adult trip planned this fall. I had been to New York on a yearly basis to visit one of my closest friends for the past eight years.
 It was the first time that hubby and I went together. I have to say going in Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter. Fall is my favorite in the city.
The whole reason we went was for the boys to go to a football game of their Alma mater at West Point.
 I have to say the girls decided our time would be better staying in the city shopping.
We stayed at the luxurious Loews Hotel conveniently located to everything!
 I am smiling writing this thinking how much fun we had!
