Confessions of a Shopaholic

Hello loves,

Thanks so much with all the fabric suggestions from yesterday’s post. You are really helping a girl out. I’ve been working like crazy since this weekend trying to get this house finished and have been having problems making decisions for myself. (I blame all the paint fumes!)

I’m leaning towards the bamboo, yet I can’t get the stripes (vertical and animal) out of my head as well.

In the hopes of giving my readers a little love back I was trying to think of a new feature that you all might enjoy and then it hit me! I discussed it with my advisors (aka my sisters, jon and of course Moo and Bear) and they all agreed it was a good idea.

So here is the idea. I’m located in NY and about 20 miles from NYC and I know a lot of my readers are not from the NY area.

My idea for the new feature would be to let you, my lovely readers pick out a shop for me in the NY area that you would love to get a sneak peek into. I would then go and snap pictures and capture the experience for you and report back to you. Maybe I can even pick up a little memento and do a give-away as well!

See, this could be me with a fab yellow jacket and surrounded by shopping bags as I take you with me on my shopping trips!

I can go to a big retailer like, ABC Carpet and Home or a local favorite like Fishs Eddy or small independent boutiques. It also doesn’t have to be Interior Design related. I can hit up a clothing shop that you saw in Lucky that you wish you could go to and let you know what it’s all about.

Ok I’m excited and I hope you all are as well.

I’m adding a poll so that you can all vote and let you know if you want me to go ahead with this idea.

I’ll even wear something silly colorful if you like while I visit the shops!

If you like this idea make sure you leave a comment and let me know what store(s) you want to see featured!
