Fabulous Room Friday 08.21.09

By the way, a huge thank you to the fabulous <a href="http://www.elementsofstyleblog.com/2009/08/fashion-friday-southern-hospitality.html">Erin of Elements of Style</a> for introducing me to this magazine a while ago. I absolutely love it! </span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">So, why is this table worthy of being considered an entire room for today's feature? I just find it incredibly charming. Eventhough it is organized and the table is large enough to accomodate quite a few items, it still feels a little chaotic and I sort of like that. You have books, an abundance of magazines much like you'd find in my own home, along with framed photographs, a vintage rotary phone, personal mementos, a gilded mirror, vintage lamp, and some darling stacked, kelly green boxes. What more could a girl want? C'est très charmant!</span><br /><span style="font-family:Verdana;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Verdana;">Have a fantastic weekend!</span><br /><span style="font-family:Verdana;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Verdana;">Image via <a href="http://www.houseandhome.com/">Canadian House and Home</a></span>
