    Cottage Girls..... Shopping

    I was out on a shopping trip with one of my Clients.  She has some favorite Shops that she was introducing me to in the Sacramento area.  She has an amazing knack for finding the best little out of the way places.

    Cottage Girls in Carmichael, CA. is on of those places.  The Owner has such a flair for vignettes that I thought it would be fun to share them with you for Artie's Vignette Friday.  Enjoy this wonderful shop.  A must see if you are in the Sacramento area.

    It's always so much fun to find a shop that has fun and pretty arrangements. This place is just that. The shop owner certainly carries such a variety of things- perfect for mixing styles, which is something I like to do! Nice to meet you- am visiting from Artie's party.

    er..me again. In case you don't speak typonese (LOL) I meant... I WISH it was closer. Posting prior to coffee is risky at best.

    What a pleasure it must have been to walk around this shop! Such pretty items. That large shell really caught my attention! What a focal point that would be in a room.

    Great shop. Only wish I lived near it.

    I host a weekly meme called Seasonal Sundays. It's all about what the season means to YOU. I'd love to have you join us.

    JUST the sort of shop that
    I love poking around in.....
    You can tell the owner has
    "the eye" for putting together
    catchy displays!
    Loved the summer memory
    that you shared on P&H;
    so glad that you found the
    love of your life : )
    Happy Labor Day!

    I have visited this shop and it is so enjoyable checking out all the vignettes. The owner is very nice and helpful. I hope to go back when through that area and spend more time because there is much to see. Thanks for sharing it and reminding me of a fun shopping trip.
