Take Thee A Tile
To complete a recent project, we had to embark on a last minute search to replace some rustic Mexican tiles. Our search took us to TIERRA Y FUEGO, a fantastic store south of downtown San Diego near the Mexican border. Yes ... our GPS stopped working at one point, then sent us down non-existent roads on our way there. Yet, it was well worth the adventure - huge selection; reasonable pricing; and wonderful staff, especially Ricardo. If you cannot make it to their showroom, then visit their website ... luckily they ship!

Before & After
Who doesn't love "before and after" pictures? This set of pictures is of a small, oddly-shaped bedroom that we turned into a cozy TV room, complete with an extra large cup of Dunkin' Donuts coffee.
Mission on the Merrimack
While working on a project in New Hampshire, we came across MILLCITY ANTIQUES & CONSIGNMENT. Located in the historic Waumbec building on the Merrimack River, it offers over 9,000 square feet of antiques, vintage finds and repurposed furniture. The inventory is wide-ranging; the staff is beyond helpful; and the new owner is a former Hoosier. What more could you ask for?

Let There Be Light
We recently came across a wonderful store in San Diego: TAP LIGHTING. The place is fun and funky; the owner and staff are delightful and knowledgable; and their inventory is fantastic and eclectic. While they carry many new lines of lighting, the selection of antique and vintage lighting is what sold us. Not only did we find an amazing vintage chandelier but they had it rewired and ready to install in less than 24 hours. Our best lighting experience to date ...
