Bet you remember my delight at locating this shop a couple of years back................the fabulous ScreenDoor in Asheville, North Carolina. Each time I head for the hills, those magnificent mountains making up the Blue Ridge and the Great Smokies, a stop (actually it was three this trip!) here for treasure hunting always tops my list.
There are some very nice people working here including Frances and Gail, two gals who are helpful and interesting to hang out with. They enjoyed looking at pics of how I decorate and immediately suggested books I'd enjoy, including
A New Eighteenth Century Style: Rediscovering a French Decor. I was so impressed with Frances' own area at ScreenDoor - a huge building where dealers rent spaces - her eye and taste, exquisite, everything muted in neutral shades, the woods, metals, paper, glass, fabrics. I'll show some of her offerings later.
In my excitement at being back at the ScreenDoor, where I met Penny from
The Comforts of Home and
Lavender Hill Studio, such fun, and shopped for an hour or so during each visit, I forgot to get a pic of those real life ladies. Instead you get to see a few of the other lovelies around the shop.
A life size Madonna, French funeral baskets, Gothic window, angel wings = an almost religious experience! Lovely displays.
........and this, the classic French (oops, make that Greek!) lady I brought home! Later I'll show you where she's hanging out here in the cottage.
