The New Antiques

This past weekend I made my first trip to the Scott's Antique Market in Atlanta. How have I lived here for 2 years without experiencing this?? My good friend McCall taught me the ropes and introduced me to some very interesting people...including the delicious Turkish hottie who sells a fabulous lighting line! I must say, I have a new appreciation for antiques. Because of my obsession with greys, whites and all the washes in between I came across so many pieces I thought I had to have! Luckily, I had much self control but I am posting some examples of the latest in antiques. Girls, forget the cans of white spray paint....Grey has stepped up. Don't you love it?

This is not an antique, however it is at your fingertips on homedecorators.com for only $199!

Can your favorite color really be white?...

I remember when someone asked me not too long ago what my favorite color was and I wanted to say...white, for sure! But I gave a little disclaimer first because I thought most people would think that was impossible...and that white isn't really a color. But the more work I do and the more recommendations I make, it is a fact that you can't go wrong with white! Whether its a sofa, a rug, a lamp, or all three, they will make a beautiful statement if white. I tell myself everytime I go shopping that I can not buy more cothes that are solid white, black or gray. My closet looks like a dark, cloudy sky but I love those colors. And the photos below are more proof that white is better than red or purple or brown. And black walls...how fabulous they are still!...especially with these pieces.
