CUSTOMER PAD: Grayson & Ellery's Pink Palace Bedroom

Customer Allyson Hall of About Face Studios has done it again.  First, her silhouettes.  Then, her photography.  Now, her interior design.  She just sent these pics of her daughters' bedroom.  I loved seeing how she put together all the treasures she has purchased from our store.  From vases to side tables, lamps to artwork...almost ALL of it from Uptown Country Home!

CUSTOMER PAD: Mollie's DIY Candle Holder Lamp

Customers Anna and Mollie Dean bought this standing iron candle holder from us (at 50% off!) last week.  With some creativity, a night light, and an extension cord, they turned it into this adorable floor lamp... Thank you for the cute pics Mollie and Anna!

Affordable and adorable...

CUSTOMER PAD: BIANCA'S BUNGALOW

A year or so ago, I wrote about the apartment of my (then single) best friend and stylist Bianca Elliott here.  Now she is married and lives in an amazing place she fixed up from head to toe with her adorable husband, Clinton.

This was the wedding...
 
Bianca and Clinton shop at Uptown Country Home all the time, and their new Dallas home was just featured in the Dallas Morning News.  Photographs by Courtney Perry.  A-mazing...

Our adorable customer Wendi and her husband just sent pics of their completed nursery. It's their first baby and it's a girl!   She's due in 2 weeks and has a perfect little pink room to come home to.  Here are the pics....the dresser, night stand, glittered floral print, lamp, scrolly white vintage mirror and pink botanical in window frame are all Frantiques from Uptown Country Home!
