If I had the money...I would snatch these up in a heartbeat! So instead....I will kindly sit back and drool over them thinking about the lucky person who gets to have these in their house. so sad. They are at $535 right now and the reserve has not been met yet. $148 to ship and it ends in 1 day! Bid here!

Vintage Living

I stumbled upon Dallas designer Lisa Luby Ryan, thanks to D Home Blog, and went to her online store Vintage Living. She calls it her "grown-up shop" which is full of french country items! I love coming across true talent in your own town. Not only does she feature great items that are for sale in her store.....she features her own home! Take a look below at some of her store items and pictures of her home in the Park Cities are above.

Bye Bye Plain Envelopes

I hate giving gift certificates in boring old envelopes and then I saw these and just awed over how beautiful these envelopes were. This design celebrates the Year of the Pig. If you have the new Blueprint magazine you probably have seen these. You can purchase them at Design Night for $6.50 an envelope.

Ebay-Bamboo Side Tables- Newport, CA

If I lived in Newport I would run to pick these up...not walk. It looks like they will ship them anywhere or deliver to the USC or UCLA campuses, but you could save a heck of a lot of money if you live in the area by picking them up. I love love love these. They end tomorrow and are at $160 for the pair right now. Bid here.
