Pretty in Pink

We had an extremely fun, successful market this year! We found a crib, changing table/ dresser, bed linens, swivel glider and ottoman, the sweetest outfits, and of course there was a pit stop at the HOBO sample room!

We checked into the Ritz on Friday around lunch time and went straight to the porch where we had an awesome lunch to gear us up for super shopping. We headed over to market and immediately went to the fine linens floor where we knew the baby showrooms were. I originally thought I wanted a dark-stained sleigh crib but after seeing one in the first showroom I decided that I wanted something less dramatic and more casual. Well, did I hit the jackpot when we strolled into the Peas and Honey showroom! We immediately fell in love with this hand-stitched silk, one of a kind, perfect set!
Disclaimer: This picture was taken by my mom's iphone and
will never do this designer justice (she was there and I fell in love her). The colors are pale pink and pale green and this is not the crib that we chose but it is in the same line...it's white, distressed wood, and more of a sleigh crib design just not as big and bold). Everything should be arriving in the next 8 weeks so I'll give a room tour when everything is done!
After hitting the mother-load in Peas and Honey, I enjoyed walking around browsing with less pressure. That night we went back to the porch for an awesome dinner and it was bed time!

Breakfast in bed (spoiled rotten...I know) got us energy for a full day of the gift building and chair hunting! I found a beautiful leather HOBO purse and a mustard colored clutch for my mother-in-laws birthday...gotta love the HOBO sample room. Then, we went to the baby apparel floor and found precious smocked bubbles and dresses and Kissy Kissy galore. Later that day, the perfect chair was spotted and the nursery is complete! I got a linen slip cover with green welting...and it could not be more comfortable. So after another amazing meal at the brand new Il Mulino next to the Ritz, it was back to Beaufort to show Graham all of the loot and await my furniture and bedding!
