Hello and happy rainy Tuesday! It’s taken me a while to get it together this week and my excuse is because we had a marvelous and busy weekend. We were blessed with the presence of very good friends from Charleston, South Carolina for a few days. We talked for hours catching up, went to the farmer’s market, and generally ate, drank, and were merry. As part of our tour of High Point and Greensboro, we stopped by The Red Collection.
I was introduced to The Red Collection by my mother-in-law. It is a warehouse full of quality consignment home goods. There are tons of drapes, pillowse, couches, sconces, lamps, rugs, paintings, dressers, consoles, and every other imaginable and unique decorating item. I love this place because everything is marked quite reasonably and the prices drop every 30 days an item goes unsold. The only problems is is that things rarely go unsold. As I told our friends before we entered, “If you like something, get it. It won’t be here if you change your mind.”
With that advice, we wound our way through the maze of awesomeness with everyone finding something. Even though Aaron and I had just gone a week prior (it’s an addiction), I ended up buying a few items that apparently had just come on the floor. I had been needing a small mirro for this bathroom in the basement:
I had been looking for some time, but just could not find the right one. That is until I spotted the perfect little beauty on Saturday for…are you ready for this?…$7.95! An absolute steal if you ask me and it looks like it was made for this bathroom.
It looks relatively new and the price let’s me know that this isn’t necessarily a piece of value, but, again, it was just what I was looking for. So not only was our weekend wonderful and well spent with good friends, but it was quite fruitful as well. Cheers!
