July's La Maison Rustique Barn Sale

After so much talk about La Maison Rustique, I was FINALLY able to experience it for myself! It was so fun meeting everyone and hearing all about the "Blog-her Party" coming up in August. I can't wait!

I was able to walk away with two fabulous finds for our new home (which by the way- I've had several people ask- we just put offers on 2 homes this weekend but don't have our hopes too high because the market is extremely competitive right now! I can't believe how many people are finally jumping off the fence to buy homes now! ) Anyway, I purchased 2 farm style chippy tables. I am extremely happy about my purchases! I'm sure as soon as we are in a home, I will be purchasing much, much more! I will post pics of the tables I bought a little later (somehow I forgot to take pictures of them).

Don't forget to check back later this week for a free give away!!

Welcom to South. Calif. My kids go to school in Temec/Murrieta. We live up the hill from you in a little rural community called Anza. But we love Temecula, and Old Town is amazing with wonderful little shops. I really, really enjoy your blog! You have a great way of writing, enjoy it.
Blessings, Debbie

The right one will come along soon enough and then you will get to fill it with all your goodies. And have an excuse to buy more goodies.

My dad lives in Temecula. The kids were just down there, but I forgot to ask them to go shopping for me at La Maison Rustique. ha ha I'd love to meet you in person next time I'm down. I told my dad that I am having a Temecula withdrawel and I need to come down there sometime soon. Maybe in the fall after school starts. Good luck with your house hunting.
