Yesterday, after visiting SWEET SALVAGE...
we stopped at MELROSE VINTAGE, which
is another fabulous place to visit
along 7th Avenue in Phoenix, AZ...
MELROSE VINTAGE carries
Rachel Ashwell's Shabby Chic products...
Part of the store has other
vintage shabby-type decor
with a scrapbook store in the other
half of the store...♥
I just LOVE these giant paper rosettes!
MELROSE VINTAGE is owned
by a mother & daughter team...
Here is the daughter, Wendy...
I went to grade school with Wendy!
Small world, huh?
Wendy is so sweet & adorable!
Someday, I'm going to bring my
lunch and sit at this table...LOL!
Glitter LOVE ♥!!!
My friend Dawn found a vintage
spool of velvet...a must have
for her collection!
Love this display!
Scrapbook paper heaven!
Another pretty display!
Wendy's mom made this - so talented!
Wendy's mom made this too...
I hope she offers classes soon!
Pretty and shabby! ♥
It's that table I LOVE
and want to sit at someday
with my bagged lunch...
Maybe Wendy won't mind?
Lots of fabulous stuff for mixed media
or altered art projects...
Fab display!
Love the scattered books!
Don't you just LOVE this classroom space?
A close-up of the chandelier...♥
Of course, you never know when you
might run into Tim Holtz when you
are in a random scrapbook
store looking at
Tim Holtz products...LOL!
Thanks for stopping by!!!
Have a nice weekend!

You lucky lucky gal...what a wonderful place to get lost in. Of course living in an area the size of Phoenix helps, I'm sure you've got lots of sweet places to go. Not so much here...I guess the trade off is living in the great North West...sans shops like Sweet Salvage and Melrose Vintage. Happy Holidays.
ReplyDeleteLovely shops everywhere! ;)

We ran into Tim three times...but, I didn't bother him at the third place, he might had thought I was stalking him, even though we came into the store BEFORE he did...LOL!
DeleteThat shop is soooo Coool. Getting to chat with Tim was an added bonus to an awesome day! Merry Christmas and Creative Blessings for 2013.
ReplyDeleteDelightful Serendipity... what are the odds?!
