Broken lawnmowers, nails in tires, art appointments, industrial air purifiers, doctor's appointments, and dead computers, want to know what all of these things have in common...well they're all associated with moi!
The last few weeks have been a blur. You know the kind, where even in your dreams you are behind the eight ball or atop the highest point in the universe with no visible way down...yeah that was last night's fun dream! The kind of pace where the bullet train goes whizzing past you in a blur, but you're on one of those hand crank railway seesaw car thingies like they always had in the cartoons, pumping your heart out to try and catch up. Phew, I need a vacation and there's none on the horizon, so the crazy train will have to keep chugging a few more months.
Yesterday, it dawned on me that I never showed you my friend Melissa's beautiful shop photos that I told you I would show you last month. I made a promise to myself that today would be the day I would get the post done, and then like magic I saw Melissa at Panera last night...you gotta love how the universe works sometimes don't you?! Like it was saying to me..."remember, you said today, this means you better do that post, you promised...see there she is!"
So below is my LONG overdue post filled with lots of lovely photos from her amazing store. But before we get to all the pretties, I'm also long overdue in thanking each and every one of you who commented on my last post. I haven't returned a single email or comment from that post and I feel sick about it. The fact is that I read them all and each one gave me a greater and greater sense of comfort regarding our empty nest, so thank you! And thank Mr. Tide for fixing my dead computer so that I could come here to say what should have been said within just a few days of posting...THANKS, you guys rock!
And because I've blathered on enough for one post, I will let the pictures do most of the talking for The Right Mix, Antiques and Fine Art, owned by my dear friend Missy/Melissa Geimer! Enjoy!
Beautiful antique oil paintings...check!
Gorgeous silver serveware, including antique samovars...yup she has what you need!
Beautiful antique furniture and rugs, including burl wood and a baby grand piano...whatever you need to tickle your fancy!
In need of a little sparkle in your life, or maybe just an Aidan Gray fix...well you've come to the right place...or should I say The Right Mix! ;-)
And did I mention that she also carries accessories for yourself (she even sells antique jewelry), or your home, Missy has you covered, at her shop you'll find giftware too, including cards and napkins.
And because Missy understands that every well dressed home deserves a beautiful setting, she offers an array of beautiful garden accessories to boot.
I think you can see why I love this shop, and why I think the name The Right Mix is perfectly suited to it, it truly is a wonderful mix of must haves! If you were to take a quick lap around my house right now you'd find one of her armillaries gracing my front flower bed, a beautiful antique blue and white creamer sitting on the tea cart in my dining room, and a gorgeous white German Shepard statue atop the Hepplewhite chest in my living room...not to mention some wonderful paper napkins in the drawer of my buffet waiting for guests, or to use as hostess gifts. So not only do I love Missy's shop, but I love how her wonderful gifts and antiques have helped me create the right mix in my own home! And the best part is that she's always finding new treasures so each time you visit her shop you're sure to find something new to bring home!
I hope you enjoyed this little tour of The Right Mix located in Leonardtown, Maryland, and I hope you'll have the opportunity to visit it yourself one day and meet Missy, who is one of the sweetest women on the planet, and I'm not exaggerating when I tell you that!
The shop isn't open every day, but you can always contact Missy/Melissa via email at missygeimer@yahoo.com or you can phone her at 480-365-8871 to schedule an appointment, and please tell her Kat says hello!
Thank you Missy for letting me invade your space and take photos of your beautiful shop!
