Fuffiz Antique Mall ... in Arlington.  Fuffiz Antique Mall is decked out for Mother’s Day ... Memorial Day ... and everyday for shopping antiques and collectibles. With new treasures coming in daily from dealers who spend their time treasure hunting it’s no wonder the selection is at its best. On our most recent visit we were inspired by a pair of vintage ormolu Bombay chests with marble tops. Not over-the-top chests, just tastefully done.

 

As you stroll through The Mall be on the lookout for a variety of styles and period pieces ... from Art Deco to Victorian. Chairs and chests have been oiled and reupholstered to return them to their original beauty and now take center stage. Add to that collectibles, glassware, framed art, and any number of decoratives from the early 20th century to the present and you’ve got Fuffiz Antique Mall.

Mid2Mod ... A Century's Worth of Great Design, in Dallas starting Wednesday. Mid2Mod is perfection! Store "modernist," Joe Eggleston and his wife escaped corporate America and moved to Deep Ellum to open their store only a few months ago. Fred and I were totally surprised the store has been under our mid-century radar for that length of time, but not any more! We welcome you to a mid-century shopping venue that has everything ... couches sized for Uptown living or ranch style sprawl, hanging lamps ... floor lamps ... and table lamps, and a variety of mid-century tables made of glass, wood, acrylic, or a combination of some or all.
