I get asked all the time where we find all the great stuff we have here at Chartreuse & co. The short answer is, “Everywhere.” The long answer is that there are 30 of us searching the world, but mostly Massechusetts to Florida to Texas, and all points between for the amazing vintage items you find here.
VINTAGE:
Here’s a look at the highlights of a buying trip to the Roundtop, Texas Antiques Week:
AND NEW:
But we also bring you great new things. And this month a group of us are heading down south to Atlanta to attend the huge Home and Gift Market in Atlanta, GA, America’s Mart. It’s three 18+story buildings completely filled with showrooms and temporary booths of the coolest, newest, hottest, best finds for your home and garden.
Here’s a few tiny images from their website (we’re not allowed to take photographs while we’re there, sadly . . .)
All the buyers are like so many hamsters in a habi-trail seeking that elusive perfect item.
Here’s a peak at what kind of things we’ll see:
It’s showroom after showroom of inspiration.
Aren’t these cool? I just love the trends in lucite.
Yes, the whole complex will be dripping with Christmas! This is where (and when) we order all that great Holiday decor each year.
I just love how antlers have become such a huge design element. These lucite ones are fabulous!!
The blend of fabulous vintage with carefully-edited new is what Chartreuse & co is. It’s how we all decorate.
We’ll be heading down to Atlanta in a week – what would you like us to be looking for? Let m know.
Thanks for reading,
