hello Monday...Hello HUDSON! Hello Mercantile and Hello Fab BOOK!

...hello Monday.

Sometimes it does take me some time to get around 

to sharing a peek at something special...

Things move quickly around here, and I can hardly believe it's been a few weeks since the exciting book signing at the Hudson Mercantile for Mary Randolph Carter's fab new book Never Stop to Think...Do I Have a Place for This... 

Total wowness as it explores the homes and hearts of 17 amazing collectors...among them my friends  

painter, Jennifer Lanne and antique dealer & designer, Stephanie Lloyd. 

I am totally smitten with the book, 

and I am ready to move into the homes and among the objects it shares...

Here's a peek at the You-Tube video Carter did to showcase her new book...and after you've had a gander...you can click here to buy the book from Rizzoli.

Hello to wonderful things...

Here are a few shots from the new Hudson Mercantile.  

The book signing event was hosted among its treasures from 

Stephanie and some truly love paintings by Jennifer...
