Thursday, I treated myself and went to my favorite shop in town. Even though I was only there for 20 minutes, I felt completely renewed and inspired when I left.
Chartreuse is a fabulous mix between a flea market,
an antique store and an art gallery.
They have amazing furniture finds that are 100% repurposed...
and the great part is that they're listed at consignment prices.
The other day my daughter asked me why I liked old things so much.
I laughed and thought about it for a minute.
Then, I said, "Because they tell a story."
I really like things that have been somewhere, and have a story to tell.
Or things that could have been thrown out, but have been given a new life.
If you were a piece of furniture, what would you be? Would you be rustic and restored, or would you be bright shiny and new? What's your story?
