Finding Inspiration On the Road

As many of you might know, I am in Colorado right now, taking care of a little business and visiting with friends and family. Whenever I travel now, I am constantly on the look-out for businesses that are up-cycling great furniture, especially those using paint and artistic finishes to do it.Well, I had the pleasure of discovering a great new store in Pagosa Springs, Co. yesterday and just had to share! Making Things New opened in May 2013 and it is so bright and cheery, and inviting....you really want to be in the space!

When I stepped through the door (which was a gorgeous shade of blue!) I felt like I was walking into my dream store...the one that I hope to open someday soon...

The bright colors on the furniture are gorgeous and Tyra has done done a beautiful job of merchandising all of her creations.

 She is a talented artist with a great eye for color...she actually mixes up her own paint colors. 

If you are ever in the area, stop in and tell them that French Gypsy Designs sent you!

Until next time....
