Sneak peek of Home by Ally at the Vintage Market

I just thought I'd snap some photos of some things while I had a spare minute today to show y'all some sneak peeks. We have SO much inventory, it is amazing and crazy! Anything for your home decor, vintage, handmade, antique and painted furniture needs…come to our booth! So below you'll find the flyer if you're a local, the address and times…and some sneak peeks! There will be 17 vendors total and almost 200 people have already RSVPED to the event on Facebook! I think it'll be a big hit and everyone is bound to leave with some treasure for themselves, I am sure of it!

We have a few subway art adorable signs, a few clay & resin pots & mini urns, adorable rustic wire baskets…about 4 dressers, an adorable vanity, a 6ft harvest table, my coveted light moss green shutter door buffet/console and other misc decor I'll try to list as we go through all the photos….Like I said, you REALLY don't wanna miss out!

Here's another adorable dresser. French provincial style with 4 drawers in bright white and distressed, simple and elegant. Darling little dresser. 

Love these starfish! They will be available in all different sizes as well as some beachy decor and subway art to go along with the beach theme as well.

Moss balls make great accents as well as boxwood balls in these mini petite urns.

I love this little sign! I almost kept it for myself! Still might!

I found this adorable handmade rocking chair just today and I still haven't decided if I want to paint him or not…. they are adorable in any living space and are quite functional obviously as well.

Here's another vintage scale that I have and behind it lies one of two available half moon metal window frames. They look amazing above windows or door frames… or a crest for above photos.

Lots and lots of masons, mostly older styles with zinc and glass tops and of course we have tons of that lovely aqua blue as well! 

Here's a vintage tray and my painted antlers I'll probably stick at the sale.

We'll have my pair of shabby lamps with linen shades that I will finally be parting with. I may or may not have another beige shabby lamp with a burlap shade that I will be putting as well...

I have a large boxwood wreath, two mediums and two smalls available at the sale as well as a few mirrors and wall art and hand painted signs. I also do have that medallion and a few other things that are great wall decor for anyones home!

We also have quite a few different styles of metal baskets…these below each have a serious of numbers that go from 1-2-3. They are ADORABLE in a row and are also perfect for kids rooms.

We also will have an XL metal basket that is perfect to pile blankets in or for a large collection of children's toys or anything of that nature. Right now, I have a TON of old/antique table legs that are perfect for your DIY projects or just to display! Look at that chippy goodness.

And I'll be selling this chandelier below. It is made to look old world style with an elegant touch. Brand new, only hung once and I decided I wanted something different. It's originally from World Market and if it doesn't sell, I may try to take it back and see if they will do an exchange...

So stay tuned by giving us a like on our Facebook page by clicking here! I've been posting sneak peeks  and I probably haven't even showed you a 3rd of what we'll have! I'm definitely going to bring my camera to snap photos of our space… and other vendors to share with y'all! But just in case, I am busy which I probably will be, I'd be happy if our readers shared their photos as well!

Hope to see everyone there!

My french chair & One Kings Lane

This is a sponsored post but all opinions are my own. One Kings Lane contacted me to share their new Resource Guide and I happily obligated without compensation.

Y'all. So, if you have been following around here, you know that I found THE chair that I love so...so...so much. The french inspired chair. Remember her and her gorgeous curves? 

When I purchased this chair, it is obviously that it is a french style with matching ottoman. The things I loved most about this chair was number one, the curves. You don't see them like this anymore. Although my chair is a reproduction, the basic bones of the chair mimic an antique. Did I mention that it's super comfortable? I got it my girl recliner. It's so nice to lay back on the fluffy pillow and stretch my legs out. But less about me relaxing and more about this chair and One Kings Lane.

They wrote me about their new "resource guide" which is Ah-MAZ-ing. You can virtual look up the history of any chair, sofa, ottoman, any other piece of furniture. You can search different styles and learn all about them including when it was originated, where it comes from and the entire history of the era of the piece. Plus, there are also articles on the site on the latest in furniture that is trending, most comfortable chairs and DIY ideas for your furniture! Amazing? See I told you!

You can learn the history of the day bed and the chaise lounge by clicking here.

So many wonderful tips to offer and fun photos and facts to scroll through! Thank you One Kings Lane for an awesome Resource page! I am so excited to start using it in my everyday furniture hunts! 

I also wanted to invite all of you to explore One Kings Lane! If you leave your email in the comments below, I can invite you!

New eye candy: French chair & ottoman

Let me just first say that I've missing blogging over the past few weeks while we have been doing things to our new home. Just this past weekend alone, we tackled painting the entire exterior of the home, the front door, tore out a whole yard full of overgrown bushes, hung shutters, painted trim, installed a new mailbox and all in all, added a great bit of curb appeal to our little beach side Florida home. I can't wait to reveal it but my mom is coming to Florida to help me landscape it. After that and when I buy my rocking chairs, (signature southern, right there)... I will reveal it! So stay tuned and keep your eyes peeled! 

I've been on Craigslist for awhile now just scooping out new odds and ends, including furniture and specifically here lately, a guest bed and a master bed. Insert late night Craigslist wandering and a search for antique chairs... and I discovered this lovely. 

Enter beautiful french style Broyhill chair. I adore this style of chair and always search for them but with no luck of finding any in my price range. This is a re-production of sorts made to look like the antique, fine by me and more comfortable! What I would really like to do since many of you know my style is more neutral, muted tones is to have it recovered or do it myself. I'm a little nervous to DIY this with all the piping so I may enlist a few great friends to help me sew the cushions. Unless someone on here knows someone great and affordable for reupholstery around here, please pass along their information to my email address!

I adore the legs. In the original Craigslist add, I could not tell how much detail they had. The legs are wood with a red tone of paint blended in... Red really isn't my color so gasp... I might paint it. Or I may strip it and do a white washed wood look or a nice dark walnut stain for contrast. Oh the ideas.

Can I get a whistle already?

I adore the ottoman with it and how the curves of the chair and ottoman fit into each other. Such a classic and timeless look that will never go out of style. I have thought about doing a slipcover as well but one that will strap on so that it won't cover the wood... again, the ideas...

The puppies seem to love it already. The lady I purchased it from was such a sweetheart and had a home FULL of antiques. I just about died. Literally. But since we are downsizing, I only took home the chair. Patting myself on the back now!

Their lives are so hard...

So what do you think of my new chair? I loveeeeeeee it. Can you hear me saying it? Yeah. That much.
