MINTY Monday

You wanted to see more. Ask and you shall receive. I'll call this reality blogging as we are still organizing, shining things up, and getting ready to style the goods, but here's another peek at the MINTY booth.

Lots of brassy goodness, coral, horn, agate, and beautiful vintage ceramics.

Gorgeous art and lighting, saturated Dutch wax print fabric from Africa, and a 13 yard bolt of woven Donghia fabric for the price of 1 yard!

Can you say disco mirror! Vintage Eames chairs, dovetailed Lane table, and unique art.

Lucite. More Lucite. Amazing Lucite.

Yeah, I know, that lamp. I want it too. And speaking of two, we have a pair for your living room console, dining room credenza, bedroom nightstands....

If you have your heart set on any of these beautiful pieces email me and we'll talk.

And be sure to keep up with the latest in MINTY updates by following us on Twitter and liking us on Facebook. You can also declare your MINTY love by linking to MINTY with an adorable button. You heart us and we'll heart you.

That's it for now friends, I've got some zhushing to do.

Some MINTY Love

Forgive the poor quality phone pic, but I just had to share a little of what we've been working on this afternoon. A little sneaky peek at the MINTY booth.

Thanks to all of you for the wonderful emails, comments, tweets, and FB "likes." I can't tell you how much it means to us. And if you see something you just can't live without, you know how to reach us.

It's Friiiiday! i.e.-The Big Reveal

I know we've been teasing you for days, and don't think it's been all fun and games 'cause we have been seriously working our tushies off, but finally, I can spill the beans. I'm thrilled to pieces to introduce a project, a dream really, that has been in the works for quite sometime. Susie, Jenny, and I have been scheming and plotting and arm-twisting to birth this baby and here she is. Introducing MINTY, our little "shop" that could.

We willed her into existence and here she is all brand spankin' new and shiny, just waiting to be explored. Housed in Antique Factory, a wonderfully quirky, eclectic warehouse-cum-storefront here in Atlanta, MINTY is your destination whether you are on the prowl for that must have piece to add to your collection, that show stopper item that will make your space dazzle, or a special gift for a design-obsessed friend. Be sure to visit our little corner of Antique Factory often for an ever-revolving selection of wonderful vintage furniture, beautiful accessories, unique art and gorgeous textiles.

We are just getting the ball rolling on our MINTY site, but MINTY is now open at Antique Factory. If you are a local, a southerner, heck, if you reside anywhere in the continental United States, drop by and see us at:

5505 Peachtree Road

Chamblee, GA 30341

770.455.7570

Hours are: Monday-Saturday, 11-5

We are currently selecting pieces for our online collection and MINTY will soon be offering online sales. In the meantime, in stock and ready to go home with you, we have everything from Bertoia chairs to Eames eiffel chairs, paintings by the inimitable Jenny of mfamb, lacquered pieces and vintage art, a fabulous brutalist headboard and the most amazing brass, glass, and lucite tables you've ever laid eyes on. Oh, and don't even get me started on the lamps. So all you faithful and ever-so-stylish readers, let us satiate your design cravings. Shop, MINTY.

A huge thank you to everyone who has already reached out with kindness and excitement merely in anticipation of our announcement. So much of our success in this venture will depend on the word of mouth of friends. We hope you will spread the word, friends.

Hello, Handsome!

It's no Mouille, but at $299 I say, oui, oui!

Well done, West Elm.

P.S.-I 've got one word for you...F-R-I-D-A-Y.

Three Things + Some Exciting News

This lucite and brass table. My coffee table dream-come-true.

This gray campaign chest coupled with that Jere mirror.

And this sexy, cheeky, neutral gone wild wallpaper. Rawr.

Now, speaking of threesomes, I have a little threesome of my own happening with two of my favorite pals. Jenny from mfamb, Susie Q of eye spy fame, and I are cooking up a little something special. Come back Friday for the big reveal. I'm spilling over with excitement!

Sittin' Pretty

What a wonderful mix of disparate elements.
