abode flea market June 18

I have a taste for the East, in my opinion, one of the most romantic words in the English language is Orient.  The thought of the souks and bazaars wafting spices and stacked with colorful fabrics makes me weak.


This market we feature the Occidental inspirations of Sue Gregory - her designs make me think of Morocco by moonlight . . . in her own words:


"a few words about my jewelry......i like to find vintage looking pieces (pendants, beads, whatever) wherever I can, and incorporate them into beautiful, unique jewelry.  I usually go for dramatic looking pieces & contrasting colors.  i never make the same thing twice, so each piece is truly one of a kind." 

Come and see for yourself!

Guess who's coming to dinner @ abode?

Millie and Lilly!!! Luscious ladies looking for fun.

Mabel Mabel Mabel put your elbows on this table!

Sunny yellow set makes you happy?  You bet!!

Remember the last thought as you ran all the way home from the last day of school?  YAHOOOOOOOOO, I get to ride my bike all summer!  Check out this blog all stingray all the time.  And now you can have your very own stingray bicycle, the one with the tall back piece.  Stop by and see the wonder at abode . . .
