Great Stylists

How to display our collections:

We are lovers of antiques, used books, brown paper, scissors, bottles, frames, spools, twine,
pictures, old candelabras, antique pictures, tools, old rusty scissors, old suitcases, quilts, french chairs, stools, handmade pillows, flour sacks,coffee sacks, cameras, and more, more, more.
Have you ever called a "hoarder", or maybe borderline, oh yes, I've called that and worst. But
relax, there is hope, we can keep our treasures
in a way that we can enjoy looking at them, and
we don't give the appearance of a "hoarder".
Pay attention to these shelves, its a lot of small but beautiful treasures.
I love my "stuff", but I hide a lot of things when company arrives, because of the "hoarder stigma"
Too bad, my home is my only refuge and I like to 'look at my painted furniture and my treasures.

A great NY Stylist tells us how she deals with this
subject. 



Eccentric??  oh yes, how many people you know that hang old feathers on their walls, LOL
