Sooo…you can imagine how much fun I had heading out with my friend Linda from <a href="http://ninasnest.blogspot.com/">Nina’s Nest </a>with a little of all three in mind! And since our Goodwill hunting netted nothing, we made a stop at our favorite antiques and interiors shop…the <a href="http://www.queenofheartsantiques-interiors.com/">Queen of Hearts</a> in Alpharetta, Georgia where we can always count on some inspiration! One of these finds came home with me! Can you figure out which one? First, look at this fabulous frenchy two piece armoire…love it!
