One Thing Leads to Another

It's funny how you start blogging or pinning about one topic/look and it starts showing up in various places in your life.  I'm sure many of you know exactly what I'm talking about.  Recently, I posted about Barrie Benson which led me to Meredith German which led me to thinking about the Greenbrier which also showed up in my Good Bones Great Pieces book which led to finding out about their Greenbier inspired party......where is this run on sentence going you ask?  Well, many moons ago I posted about a set of dining room chairs that Melissa and I are rehabbing.  The rehab project was put on hold but is now back on track.  We are nearing the finish line and it is time to pick out chair cover fabric.  What did we choose?  None other than a Dorothy Draper/Greenbrier meets Palm Springs inspired print.  It is also a throwback to the tropical barkcloth of the 1950/60s which I love.

Let me know what you think of the finished product.

Speaking of the Greenbrier

I had no idea until one of my devoted followers (thanks Charmaine) pointed out that Good Bones Great Pieces just did a post on their Greenbrier inspired party.  How fun is that and I love all their decorating ideas.  I may just have to copy this one.  After all, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery is it not?  Here are a few great pics from their post.









Check out their post for all the images and party inspirations.
