Birthday Girl!

Happy Birthday Tootsie

Well one of our shop girls had her first birthday party-Thanks Aunt DD for throwing a fabulous breakfast party for our "tootsie". Your home is always inspiring and a delight to visit!

The theme is "red tulips" and early Spring-this deer mount is adorned in a cedar garland above her great brick fireplace. Red tulips are tucked all around his majestic head-love the burlap ribbon intertwined around the cedar and tulips as well!

Fresh red tulips in a wicker glass lantern-so charming! Fresh flowers can be a quick pick me up on an island in a kitchen or anywhere this time of year. After I saw these I had to go pick up some pink ones they made me smile...

Bright yellow and red parrot tulips on kitchen island mixed with wooden cutting boards and glass jars full of goodies...love the antique red transferware platter displayed in the center.

White hydrangeas and red tulip arrangement in the center of her farmhouse table-love the blue & white transferware mixed in with these beautiful ruby red glasses and picture!

Plaid napkins mixed with linen striped red napkins and a plaid tin box full of scottish shortbreads oh the details!

Such sweet details-chocolate brown paper with pink ribbon. Fresh cedar is tucked into the bow...

These were Madeline's cupcake favors-so much fun to put together. Natural brown paper boxes wrapped with pink ribbon and natural twine. Such fun until next time!

Our Shop Bonnes Amies

In the Spring of 1988 I was looking to open a business in Plainview, Texas. Going up and down 5th Street quite often I'd always notice this sad little house standing alone and dreary. It inspired me and thoughts of possibilities streamed through my head.
It inspired me and thoughts of possibilities streamed through my head. I bought it and spent four hard long months with a carpenter everyday transforming it's inner beauty into what it is today.

This past year our shop which was built in the 1920's and was originally a tiny farmhouse got a well needed face lift. Stucco on the outside covered the old yellow paint that was chipping, we painted the shutters a bright and vibrant peacock blue...the old lattice fence was torn down around the store and replaced with these painted beam fence. Every spring we plant a row of tomatoes, basil, and rosemary down this fence line. Maybe this summer they will do better pray for rain!

The great guys that did the stucco also placed these beautiful flagstones in various patches to give our shop that European old look. The trim was painted the same color as the stucco so that the whole building would flow together. New awnings were ordered in black and screen printed in cream with Bonnes Amies...

This picture was taken in early November just when the large pear tree in the front started to turn. How seasons come and go...Let us help you with your design and decorating ideas. Remember our goal is to service you...bridal registry, take telephone orders, mail your gifts, and delivery in town...and add a little inspiration...continuously.

Antique French Pieces

Here is another one of our antique pieces-a very old marble top French chest. This piece could serve a variety of functions in any home. A buffet in a kitchen, a beautiful entry piece with lamps, or a chest in a bedroom. It's patina is so pretty and the price is quite nice!

Antique French Hunt Cabinet

This large antique French cabinet has such beautiful and detailed carving on it. What stories it could tell and what a grand piece it is. Maybe you would have the perfect spot for it in your home? It almost appears to have family crest carved on the doors and has very old stamping on the back-perhaps the previous owner years ago? We also have some antique French nighstands and in-tables, a petite china cabinet, and some wonderful French chairs. We are just waiting to slow down to make room for them!

Suitcase Suprise

I can see one of these interesting suitcases filled with wonderful goodies for a Christmas gift. Even filled with some of these great horn frames-come check out some of the great picture frames that we have displayed. I think a picture framed is one very personal and thoughtful gift myself!
