Holiday Open House at Taken For Granite in Stony Creek, CT

 It's that time of year again!

This is how Taken For Granite sparkled and twinkled

 on Friday evening at their Holiday Open House.

It was my birthday weekend and I was delighted

 to be able to visit my dear friend Paula in Connecticut. 

You know what that means!

Three fun filled days of antiquing,

 shopping in the most beautiful boutiques

and catching up with girl friends.

This first post will showcase all the splendor of

 Taken For Granite 

in Stony Creek, Connecticut.

Enjoy the photos...

...there are a LOT of them! 

Michele, the owner and creative genius

 behind these imaginative displays

 made this darling polka dot ruffled table cloth.

She also created this birch and woodland animals

 scene in this giant display case.

Here is Michele and her team of lovely and talented ladies.

Their hospitality, creativity and attention to detail

 make shopping here a pleasure.

The open house was a spectacular and fun way

 to begin the holiday season! 

I wanted to get this post up as quick as possible!

Now, it's back to Thanksgiving preparations

...and snow shoveling!

Next week I hope to share some photos

 from Paula's wonderful farmhouse cottage...

all decorated for Christmas in her unique and fanciful style.

You will love it! 

Happy Thanksgiving!
