I scored some fantastic pieces at an estate sale this past weekend, and as I started working on one of the little nightstands......out fell all of these perfectly folded papers that were yellowed and browned to perfection. As I looked closer, i discovered that they were poems and verses written in the prettiest handwriting.
I had been struggling with inspiration this week as I contemplated the design plan for my new pieces....{it's been rainy here for days}.....but, all it took was these sweet words from the estate of a 104 year old lady about Autumn, smiles, and faith to get things movin' and groovin'.
....and guess what will line the drawer of this sweet piece?
Yep, you know it!.....and you can read the "smiles" poem any time you please when you open the drawer. I am almost done with this transformation, and will introduce her to you on Monday!

I have a sweet friend named Lily , {go get lost in her creative world when you are done here!}, and while she was out of town last week she came across this amazing little set of dollhouse furniture! She didn't even ask me if I wanted it. She didn't have to, because she knew I would go all nutty! So, like the smarty pants amazing friend that she is.....she bought it all for me....miniature pots and pans to boot......and I love her for it!
How great is the little turquoise trunk?!....and the red velvet couch?.....say what?! I am totally going to revamp the little table and chairs, and the bench with the hearts. Never know what will become of these little guys! I think it will be great fun to have a little mini Knack hangin' around!

I have been on the hunt for some really awesome, fantastic, and mind blowing stools for my new desk area at the studio. Let's just say that while doing some ordering for Knack, I came across these babies.....and I think the red will do just fine. Two for me.......and how many for you? hmmm?

I have passed up many a wooden spool in my day, due to the fact that most of them are super beautiful and great ...but just a bit on the plain side for me. Well, all that changed on Monday, when I spotted these at the Screen Door in Asheville, NC. I just had to bring some home to the studio, and I have plans to use them in a photo shoot before selling them. They are totally Knack in every way, with layers of color and goodness all around. Good dealio.
