If I Had All The Money In The World...

I could spend hours daydreaming at Jayson Home & Garden. I actually think the products are worth their asking prices. Just think how much big-box stores like Pottery Barn and Crate & Barrel charge for their particle board furniture. And, I promise, your next door neighbor will not have the exact living room vignette.

I had once inquired about a $2,000 French cabinet from Jayson Home & Garden and they only asked $280 in shipping fees! Meanwhile, another site wanted $400 to ship me 2 twin headboards that weighed less than 15 pounds total...and was much closer to me than Chicago. I wish more retailers had fair shipping costs. And right now thru Dec. 16, receive free shipping on all orders over $100! If money were no object, I would order these bits of happiness pronto:

The lacquered grey Vintage Sideboard would be perfect for my china, my great grandmother's china, and my ever-growing collection of vintage glasses. I adore the grasscloth lining and the new grey paint is a fresh change from all the white lacquer we've recently seen. Please money tree, drop off $2,995.00.



My sister inherited our grandmother's Victorian settee. While hers is a bit more floral and curvy than this one, I think it would be breathtaking reupholstered and refinished like this Antique French Settee. The natural burlap fabric and gold frame makes it a truly brilliant piece. $3,295.00



Two of these natural linen Bergere Canopy Chairs for my dining room table. Or if it is comfy enough, I'd take just one for my desk chair and add wheels, s'il vous plait. Very Kelly Wearstler for Bergdorf Goodman-ish. $2,695.00



For anyone in the Chicago area, check out the store located in Lincoln Park at 1885 N Clybourn Avenue.
