Subject: The Picker Sisters

Have you seen this show??


I think it started last week, but I discovered it on OnDemand.  

Here's the synopsis...

Starring best friends and renowned interior designers Tracy Hutson and Tanya McQueen ("Extreme Makeover: Home Edition"), "Picker Sisters" reaffirms the classic saying “one person’s trash is another’s treasure” by following the design duo as they crisscross America in search of rare relics and materials to create stunning pieces for their Los Angeles home décor pop-up shop.

And here's just some of the awesome pickens':



Looking forward to the next episode!!  It make me want to go drive to North Georgia and hit up some junk yards!!

Re: Re: LOVE

I have to tell you, I LOVE the Valentine's Day present you made for Jonathan!  SOOO Clever!!  I only wish A and M were closer together in the alphabet!!  I also think your Kate Spade case is pretty adorable.

Now on to where I went last weekend....

No need to waste an entire e-mail/post on the AMAZING place I went to.  For as much as everyone raves about Scott Antique Market, including fellow bloggers - here's one example - I think I was just hoping for something different.  Something more like $100 dressers that need to be refinished.  Also, I am in the mindset that I have a specific list of things I am looking for on the furniture front and I really don't want to buy anything more.  This place was full of gorgeous things, you know, like a $1600 floor mirror!  I'm glad I went though, plus my mom, MIL and I decided to go to Flip Burger afterwards.  Nothing makes me feel better than a Nutella and Burnt Marshmallow Shake!   

Well, here's the list of what I'm looking for furniture-wise in case you ever stumble across anything:
1.  Dresser for guest room
2.  Matching nightstands for the Master Bedroom
3.  Dining Room Table (Which I think we will end up with this one)
4.  Family Room Side Table


That's it for now.  I need to go make some dinner.  Have a great weekend!
