Antiquing in Mckinney...

     It's pretty much a perfectly perfect day around here today.  Sunny and 75 with bright blue skies and no humidity, which in Texas lasts about a hot minute, and then it's over and summer sets in with a heat so intense that you can no longer remember why you were desperate for it to get warm in the first place.  But not today, today is perfection and there is nothing I like doing more on a day like today than hitting a few quaint places up in Mckinney.


and because we're in Mckinney it's not unusual to see a couple of these...


and then we move next door to Gather...


and find this big guy!  Adorbs...


and I love the way they use an old metal crate filled with books...


and the naughty monkey that I am snuck into the little boys room...isn't it the cutest!


Next stop is the amazing Patina Green, where I found nearly the exact same pair of shutters that one of the girls got in the fabulousness that was Round Top...except one tiny little difference of a mere 500 bones in her favor I might add...Ms. Tina did good!  


Oh and I love this, because it's slipcovered and white and I luvvvv all things slipcovered in white...oh the pleats, I love the little pleats...and they already had me at slipcovered and white!


Then off to Gray Living which is brand spankin new and my first foray into the super stunner shop on the square filled with finds from Aidan Gray...I'm in luvvvv and pretty much want to marry this chandelier...


and this...


and this...



and I could have taken pictures down here all day, but I think they thought I was maybe a potential creepy stalker a little so I moved my stalker self upstairs where I could click away all day...
incognito style...


Love the slipcovered bench in...WHITE!


and something trés francais for the wall...


and I love, love, love this...even though it's not in white...


and here...


and after that I was needing a tasty treat so I headed to Spoons...


and got me something yummy...


and now you want to go shopping there too...don't you!
