You know where these pictures were taken. LOL. I love the old mirror. Never ever throw away an old mantle. Hortons uses theirs in so many of their decorating displays. I just now spotted the little white pitchers hang from the mantle...will have to go back and check them out.
I love these lamps. I wanted you to see the framed wire , where pictures are hung. Cute idea for crafters.
Grapevine spheres hanging from an old ladder. I think the old the ladder for decorating , the better.
This serving spoon says"The Sweet Life" on it. This makes me think it's s dish and spoon for serving after dinner mints.. Do people do that any more?
There's a wreath hanging from the china cabinet. It appears to be a bent hanger, in a heart shape, with bits of cloth rags tied to it, along with some ribbons...sweet. I think we all could make one of these.
What I liked about this tiny cabinet was the candle pedestals. They would be so nice in vignettes , placing some things a bit higher to be seen.
This half barrel is at the side door of Horton's and always decorated. I really liked this, with it's colorful pansies , teacup/saucer, and small garden flag. I think there's a tiny evergreen to the back. So pretty.
Wishing all of you a beautiful St. Patty's day. If you are Irish, be happy...it you are not Irish, today you can pretend to be. :):) XO
They do the best displays at Horton;s don't they? I loved going over each photo and seeing all the delightful touches added here and there. I loved that darling idea of hanging the pitchers that way. How clever is that?
ReplyDeleteI hope all is wonderful with you Susie and have a Happy St. Patrick's Day!
sending hugs...
Thank you June. Thanks for the hugs too. I get to Hortons and start taking pictures and then when I get home, I see more things in them than I did at the time. June you would truly love the Hortons...they are a sweet Christian family, so kind and helpful. Wishing you and yours a glorious spring. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
DeleteLove the cabinet
ReplyDeleteHi Kuni,Thank you for your comment. Hope you are doing well and wishing you a beautiful Spring. Bless you, xoxo,Susie
DeleteThey need to open one of those up around here! I would advertise for them for free!
ReplyDeleteWonderful ideas and so many pretty things. How do you not take it all home with you? How do you not take up squatter's rights and live there? Happy St Pat's Day to you, too! Is your grass green? Ours sure is and its much nicer today- not as windy as yesterday.
Tete, I have tried to curb my impulse spending...it's hard...but I have way too much stuff. I need to work at hobby-lobby so I could get my fill of looking at things. LOL. Yes, today I just said to Ted...look how green the lawns are in just a few nice days. LOL. Ted says he will be getting the mower ready in a week or so. Hope you feel better this evening. Blessings to you sweet friend, xoxo,Susie
DeleteHappy St. Patrick's Day! I always love seeing pictures of Horton's.
ReplyDeleteHi Kathy, Hope your day was fun and not full of drs. appointments. :):) Years ago I would have worn something green to work...wouldn't you? Blessings , xoxo, Susie
DeleteHi Susie, from my heart and home to you Happy St Patrcks day! Love seen all the decorations at Hortons. May your evening be filled with a touch of Irish mischief and fu.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Noreen
I had to tell my husband about a card I saw on sweet nothings blog. It was an Irish card, so funny. Thank you Noreen for the Irish blessings. Hope your day was nice too. Bless you, xoxo,Susie
DeleteIt always looks like such a fun place to visit and shop!
ReplyDeleteLinda, It's the kind of place to visit when it's raining out too. just to get cute ideas for home décor. Hope you had a fun day with your loved ones. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
DeleteI wish I had one of those fireplaces for my own home, Susie. When we downsized and moved into our home, there was no fireplace and we still have to put one in. What lovely things on display here. I love the spoon that says "the sweet life."
ReplyDeleteHappy St. Patrick's Day! I wore green today hehehe.
love, ~Sheri
Sheri, I will be getting gas logs for any new fireplaces for me. LOL...easy peasy that's how I want things the older I get. I love that spoon too. It's very pretty design makes it even more special. You know I only a smidge of green in my pink flowery neckscarf.:):) Blessings, love you, xoxo,Susie
DeleteOh, yes, I think we all play-like we're Irish on St. Patty's Day so we can have fun....LOL
ReplyDeletexoxo
BJ, I wonder if Irish ever play like they are Italian or something.:):) Blessings, xoxo,Susie
Deletep.s. still wanting a dish shelf now.
I pretended to be Irish as I hoisted a tall, cold Sam Adams in a very Irish feeling Italian restaurant. It was a lot of fun.
ReplyDeletePaul, A very Irish Italian place...LOL. I love your sense of humor. I tell Ted all the funny stuff you say. :):) It
Delete's good to be Irish for a day. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
That mirror is awesome. Is it for sale? I also love, among so many other things the ladder and spoon. I think I have room for ladder at the lake. I've bypassed a few ladders as I thought there would be no room here in the city. Silly me.
ReplyDeleteLove your Horton's posts! :)
Jane
Blondie, I'll check to see if there's a price on the mirror. I have seen old ladders leaned against a wall, holding magazines or towels. Or suspended with pots and pans hanging from them. . What good ideas. Hope you do not get much snow...if it snows ...the weather...making me crazy. LOL. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
DeleteI could spend serious time in that store..good thing I don't live close enough I would be in trouble.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tour,Susie.
Sylvia, It's hard to fight temptation all the time isn't it? That's why I try to get my "want" fix with flowers...cause they give a long last smile. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
DeleteI have spent the most delightful time reading your Horton's posts...now I want one of those where I live! LOL You have definitely inspired me to go buy some pansies--they just sing "Spring" to me. Have a very happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteHi Mimi, I wish everyone could have a special little shop to visit when they need cheering or a small gift for some ...even ideas for home decorating. Honey, if you just get one or two little containers of pansies they will make you smile . Blessings, xoxo,Susie
DeleteHortons is such a cool lace to have access to. :)
ReplyDeletePatty, I think you have been there before, haven't you? I see something new every time I go there. They have even remodeled their blind department. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
DeleteI always love a barrel full of flowers and also like the candle pedestals. I am on the lookout for some wooden hearts about the size of my fist to hang with ribbons in the bathroom. I'm sure there is a bit of Irish in me somewhere. For sure, there is some Scotch and Scotland is next to Ireland.
ReplyDeleteNonnie, Do you have a hobby-lobby near you...you may be able to find some hearts there. Oh I bet the Irish and Scotch are mixed here and there. :):) I love them both and like to hear their accents. Hope you can get some pretty flowers too. Blessings to you, xoxo,Susie
DeleteEverything is so pretty at Hortons..I have always loved using old ladders for decorating but have never had the place to do it..I hope you had a nice St Patricks Day..Have a fun weekend..
ReplyDeleteMissy, I had a fun St Patty's day. Nothing out of the ordinary though. I have seen some short old ladders used as pot hangers in kitchens. :) Hope your weekend is good...not too much slush. Blessing to you, xoxo, Susie
DeleteI do love all of Hortons displays!!! They are so gifted!!! Great ideas, huh? Enjoy your tomorrow ! We're having a wedding!!!:-) Will post pictures afterwards!
ReplyDeleteBlessings
Gert
Gert, I am excited for you...to be going to a family wedding. I bet it will be beautiful, and I am looking forward to seeing your blog post. Blessings to all, love , xoxo,Susie
DeleteLove those grapevine spheres and the chicken wire frame - what a great shop!
ReplyDeleteI can see why many people build pole barn...to contain everything we should never throw away..you know the scraps of chicken wire and old frames..I have seen signs with names spelled out in scraps of hardware.LOL No wonder most of us a some kind of hoard. Like who ever throws out an old flower pot? Hope you do not get a big snow honey, I know you are in a spring kind of mind right now. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteWhen I see displays like these it makes me want to move into the shop and live there! xo
