A Gorgeous Sunday Afternoon In Newhall!

My friend Gail Smith, of Newhall, Ca. invited friends to see her house dressed up for Christmas. Next weekend, it's a part of a house tour  of old Newhall.   Once, Gayle owned a fabulous store named, "A Touch of Class".  She  sold the most beautiful clothes and gifts, and I'd say it was anything but just a "touch".  I hope these pics convey the utter beauty of her  house.  Thank you Gail for a wonderful time!

the beginning of  an enchanted afternoon.

Looking  down onto the sunken living room.

chairs and table received the glamour touch.

copper, copper, copper

Just some of the fabulous fare.

Wouldn't you love to be seated here, for dinner?

Coffee?

Ironstone everywhere.

I love this dish and flatware caddy.

This is a guest room. I want to be a guest.

Well, it finally arrived; our Open House at Agoura!

Our big push, for the last month, was to get the store lookin' like " Old St. Nick's  work shop".
We did it.  Yesterday was the big day, and  it was a screaming  success.  Here are some pics of my Christmas booths.;

I love the huge Eiffel Tower photo. It sold! yea!

I painted the booth dark gray to contrast with the white and silver accents.
  why did I wait so long.
 This is the best color my booth has ever been!

My Cowboy Christmas booth all decked out.

A Wallace silver plate punch bowl, tray and ladle.

Love those santas

supplied antiques to  the ". It is from the 1800s
 and  depicts railroad routes and shipping lanes.
The  industrial  cart shelves pull up and the sides close in.
