Do you know know the way to West Elm?

West Elm  1330 Chestnut Street Philadelphia, PA 19107

I thought that I went crazy when I went to IKEA but when I walked up on this store I almost lost it. This is my new-new favorite store. West Elm, that is. When I saw the store sign I thought that the logo looked familiar but I only knew it from on-line items, I wasn’t aware that they had storefronts. This business thrives on selling hand-crafted items, some of which you can find on Etsy. I was memorized with all the displays that were tastefully done. The store is a little pricey for me but magnificent none the less! There were some things I could afford like the dinnerware pieces and these gold owl salt and pepper shakers, they were a mere $20.00 and I’m all over those!

This store is a mix of IKEA and Pier One, with a little something extra. They have an abundance of quirky things in this store which makes for a more interesting interior. I was snapping picture of inspiration all over the place, I thought they were going to kick me out but they were really nice peeps. So enjoy my first visit to West Elm on Chestnut.

 

I think I could make this light fixture. It looks like a bunch of clear Christmas balls all hung on a wire base with a light bulb in the middle…hmmm
