Bob Mills Furniture

Looking around the store

I took time the other day to photograph my favorite pieces at the store.

I'm working at Bob Mills Furniture. It's been in business since 1971.

They have seven locations - one in Oklahoma City and six others in Texas.

The location in Oklahoma City is also the corporate office.

I fell in love with the piece above my first day at work.

It is actually not for sale. It sits in the office of Bob Mills' executive assistant.

She knew I loved it...I've gawked at it enough.

Of course I love the finish on it and the drawer pulls.

Love the chippy finish.

ABC cabinet

 

This sits just as you come in the front door....oh...my that's for me!

I wish I had room for it in my house.

chipped paint and marble....is there a better combo?

 

I fell in love with this sofa the first time I saw it.

I've always been attracted to this style.

Love those arms. It's covered in a white linen. Price?

It's 50% off because they are discontinuing it.

only $500 per piece! You cannot beat that price. Oh...I wish I needed a sofa!

I do need one in the office/den but white linen is so NOT weenie friendly.

very sweet lamp

those are rusty metal flowers

another nice lamp

Apothecary Chest

How about a tall bookcase complete with library ladder?

modern-ish, recycled wood dresser

 

Nice dining room cabinet. Very interesting painted finish.

now that's a rustic!

beautiful dining table

 I'm partial to this bedroom furniture...

 Isn't this cool?

 A little industrial light.

very nice platform bed

 made of many different types of wood

 

Industrial cabinet and shelf unit

 

I love this mirror!

 This bedroom just came in!

 Very Shabby Chic!

 This piece would work as a buffet in a dining room.

 love those details

 Oh...yes I can see this in my home.

It needs different bedding of course. This bedding is all wrong for it.

So that's a little tour of the store and some of my favorite pieces currently in stock.

I'd love it if any of you dropped by and visited me.

It's at 3600 W. Reno

Thanksgiving Past

Back to work today.

The weather here has been cold and icy.

Not stopping people from shopping.

I have to work again today because the store is swamped.

I made Thanksgiving napkin rings last night for this year's Thanksgiving table.

I bought new napkins for the table and made a runner.

Have not put it together yet.

While you and I wait for the reveal...I thought I'd repost what I did last year.

Dining Room Inspiration

Today, I finally got a day off from work and I'm making things for my Thanksgiving tablescape.

Hope to show tomorrow.

In the meantime, I thought I'd show some of my favorite dining rooms from my 

Pinterest Dining Room Board.

That one above is decked out for a sweet little Birthday party. 

I want a birthday party that looks like that. 

That will be my goal for next year.

I'll have to do it for myself but that is ok...I'd love to throw myself a party like that.

I love everything about this room even though it's got lots more wood than I normally go for.

Ok, I might change out the light fixture for a chandelier. Yes, I'd definitely change that out.

A big pretty mirror is always an asset in the dining room.

Wow! I love that table. Isn't it hugely fantastic!

I love how warm this room is.

The chandelier and the rustic china cabinet make this dining room.

Sweet little rosemary topiaries. Love that they have little twig trellises.

Love the wall treatment too.

Why can't I be simple like this?

I've been craving a simplified Xmas decor...

but I know I'll get all my pretty vintage stuff out again this year.

Ok, this is the thing I'm obsessed about currently. 

That bench with slipcover.

I have a long ottoman like that in my office which originally was intended as footstool

and storage but it's just always in the way and I stack stuff on it.

It needs to go and I realized it was just the right height to be used as seating in my dining room.

A quick search of Pinterest and I found some wonderful examples 

of slipcovered ottomans used in dining rooms.

I am so doing this.

Here's another. 

I think it will add a softness to my dining room that the room needs.

Ok, I'm going back to my creating now.

So fun to be home on a beautiful fall day!
