Check out the walls!

Yea! we finally started covering the dull pink walls at #1 shop with sage green burlap... Monica just stapled her little heart out getting it onto the walls... but the results were so fantastic.... we absolutely love the wall the check out room turned out... and everything we are hanging on the burlap looks so absolutely wonderful....

We just got in these fabric lanterns and they look so fantabously ( don't know if thats a real word but it is at the cottage garden) hanging over the check out counter.....with the burlap in the background....

We have many other great ideas for transforming the #1 shop so hope you can check it out soon.
