for her first blog party this evening!
She's calling it
and here, in her own words, is what this little soiree is all about:
that lets us share our inspiration...a way to not only share our creative ideas,
but also give credit to the source.
Is it a magazine article or photo, designer, place, shop, book,
word, color, another blog or blogger?

The possibilities are endless.
We have so many sources of "inspiration"
let's celebrate ideas and inspired creativity.

For my contribution to the party, I am re-posting
my homage to my wonderfully talented friend
my homage to my wonderfully talented friend
Theresa Cano of Garden Antqs Vintage.
She, more than anyone else, has inspired me to think
outside the box when it comes to design and decor.
Her ability to create a memorable, one-of-a-kind vignette
is nothing short of genius, in my opinion.

howing at Warrenton and Round Top each Spring and Fall,
I think we can all agree that there are few out there
as talented and as genuinely kind as the wonderful Theresa.

(just before the magic happens!)
She is a tireless workhorse during the week,
playing vendor, party planner, hostess, design and display genius, a
nd just all-around good friend to anyone who is fortunate enough
to step inside her tent at Zapp Hall and make her acquaintance.
It matters not how busy she might be, Ms. Cano always makes you feel
like you're the only one there at the moment.
And it's 100% genuine, there's not a lick of artifice about this gracious lady.

I told her last week that I was going to title this post "St. Theresa of Zapp",
and although it sounds a bit tongue-in-cheek,
I'm not exaggerating in the slightest when I express just how dear this woman is to me.
She has served as a cheerleader, a motivator, an inspiration, and my fairy blogmother.

And I know many of you feel the same.
