Antiques And Country Pine

"This is a very fine George I Mahogany and Rosewood Crossbanded Bureau Cabinet. The upper section has a domed and broken architectural cornice centered by a carved crest with urn finials sitting above two arched glazed panel doors that open to reveal 45 drawers and 19 pigeon holes. The hinged door bureau section opens to a leather inset writing slide, two book stands, drawers, a central cupboard and even more pigeon holes! Eight serpentine drawers are below enclosing a kneehole cupboard and drawer flanked by brass mounted pilasters. The original piece was circa 1740 and is now in the Althorp Estate."

I don't need to say a word about these.

Well , maybe one word; fabulous!!

I have seen this style dining room chair, but not the counter height and bar stool. This I will keep as a source.

This, I love. Bamboo trim is my fave.

I Can't Help Myself

I LOVE HATS !!

But, tomorrow it is back to the business of interior design blogging.

If you haven't guessed.... this is 5th Avenue in NYC / Easter Day Parade.

"21st April 1946: Huge crowds on Fifth Avenue, New York, for the Easter Parade."

"Circa 1924: Jean Wilson gives the Easter parade on Fifth Avenue a novel touch, appearing in her modified Japanese pyjamas."

"10th April 1898: Men and women walk with their backs to the camera, wearing formal top hats and dresses, in the Easter Parade, on Fifth Avenue, looking north from below Forty-First Street, New York City."

Don't Worry About What To Wear On Sunday

I have something cute, an it is 'One size fit's all. '

Easter is colorful and fun

but it can be quite a job !!

That's why I have hired these little guys to paint, and hide the eggs.

Easter is about bunnies.

And these little bunnies.

Not these Bunnies !

Yes, Sweet bunnies.

And baby chicks.

A Little Trip To Coral Gables

Matheson Hammock Beach

This is the greatest joy I get when I drive down to Miami.

No, this is the greatest joy I get when I drive down to Miami. My favorite cuban sandwhich is called ' medianoche ' [ midnight ]. If you make it down to SOBO or anywhere else in the Miami area, get one ! Yummo !

Fairchild Gardens in South Miami.

And Into Coral Gables.

Coral Gables was developed in 1924-27 .

Here we are, let's go in.

My Fave. Absolutely !!

I am easy though, throw me a black white floor and I am happy.

The colors are so lovely. And the wallcovering, to die for .

This is a great room, only something is bothering me.

Anyone have an opinion on the cornices in this room ????? hmmmmm ????

Are they pleasing to your eye ?

This is a beautiful home, I adore the color combinations. The window treatments are mounted at the right height, right up to the molding.

OK, we are out of here !! I am going back to the beach.
