Customer Pads, A Peek in Frantiques New Guest Cottage, & The Flea

Mom/Fran Holley/Frantiques/Creative Genius decided (in the middle of the night) to turn the little room off her garage into a sleep-able guest room...so 2 days later, it became a pink and grey dreamy guest cottage.  Here's a peek inside:

Mom is not afraid of hot pink. I think she gets it from her daughter.


The daybed and a shelf full of treasures...

Yes she is, the queen of the flea markets...

This is the outside...








And here is a peek inside a teenagers room that the Farrow & Cobb design duo did with treasures from Uptown Country.  We also painted the bed white for them! To read more about Farrow & Cobb, click here to see our post about them

And here is Brittany Cobb (yes she also runs the Dallas Flea) pimping us out in D Magazine this month.  Unfortunately, we will not be at the Dallas Flea this month.  You should still definitely go, and come shop Uptown Country afterward!
Check out the great article on Brit in this months D Mag...

A favorite at the Flea!
And finally, our sweet customer, Ms. Alessandra Chelsea Gilliland , has a blog about her shell creations and her Deep Ellum loft (furnished by the one and only Uptown Country).  You can check it out here: http://deepeloft.blogspot.com/
She's super talented with shells!

2. FRANTIQUES BY FRAN HOLLEY
Frantiques is a line of trash to treasure and refurbished antique finds developed by Fran Holley, Mother of Uptown Country owner, Jenny Grumbles.  Working out of her Dallas, Texas, studio, Holley creates unique and personal gifts for her daughter's shop.
