So many moons ago, ie back in June, my sweet Aunt Krista asked me to please post about my trip to Nell Hill's in Atchison which was many moons before THAT...back in March. So I'm going to post about it and my apologies to the store for posting pictures that are totally old news. Because I know they've already gussied up for fall. Ehhh...it is what it is.

Ok so during the 10 minute it took for these to upload, I realized I took them all at Garrity's which is the sister store to Nell Hills, is right next door, and has all the same things more or less.
So obviously it was spring time...

Kansas City, yes, Wichita, no. I'll tell you what I really can't wait to make it to Wichita---fresher, more updated fabric. How much longer is Old World going to stick around? I mean...really.

Back to business... I can rant about Old World at another time.
(Ask me about it sometime)

I took the trip up to Atchison with my fabulously funny friend (and full of good ideas, she's so wise) Tara, and she wanted me to take a picture of this chair. I think for upholstery inspiration? Tara I know you've been waiting with bated breath....here it is:

One thing they know.how.to.do is centerpieces. Large arrangements make the best statements!

Getting tricksy with the ole point-and-shoot...

Sometimes not to much avail, obviously.
And one final shot....looking down the hallway at Garrity's.

I don't know if I was convincing enough but seriously...if you get the chance, grab your nearest mom/aunt/girlfriends and make the trip up to Nell Hill's/ Garrity's
and you.will.loveit!
