Room No 5

Once upon a time, 

on Main Street Fredericksburg, Texas, 

there were a handful of enchanting shops. 

Homestead. 

Idle Hours. 

American Higgledy Piggledy. 

And to my mind, the crown jewel... 

Room No 5. 

All birthed by the Bolton's, Carol and Tim, 

all pure magic. 

But there was always something 

extra special about Room No 5. 

Awash in white, it was the stuff of dreams. 

But several years back, the Bolton's left Main St 

and reinvented themselves on Warehouse Row. 

First with Carol Hicks Bolton Antiquites, 

then with Gus Antiques & Wonders, 

and now....finally....surely an answer to my prayers....

Room No 5 has returned.

Since doing this photo shoot several weeks ago, 

Room No 5 is even more of a white wonderland. 

You simply must come wonder, come wander, 

come seek, come find.

Gus 'n Stuff!

Can we all say a collective 

WOW 

at the counter space at the new and improved 

Gus Antiques & Wonders? 

From the magical brain of Carol Hicks Bolton, 

Gus has moved just a few feet to the right 

into the historic Woerner Feed Store. 

Such a perfect fit!

And what's in the former Gus space?

The gloriously lovely return of Room No. 5!

More photos ahead from both the new Gus 

and Room No. 5.

Back At It

After taking the better part of the Summer off 

from doing photo shoots, 

I'm back at it again with gusto.

I've completed two commercial shoots 

for local clients this past week, and I have two 

more shoots lined up for next week, 

PLUS another shoot for the 

Where Women Create family 

of magazines scheduled for early next week. 

Whew. 

Glad to know I've been missed! 

Here's a peek at the two Fredericksburg, TX 

guest houses I shot last week. 

Many more photos of these darling properties 

very soon.

The first three photos are from 

Cotton Tail Guest House, 

one of the 7 B&B properties 

owned by my friend Melissa Mabery. 

I've been lucky enough to shoot all of 

these properties, and I must admit that 

Cotton Tail is my fave!

Cotton Tail is a two-story guest house, 

has a full kitchen, three roomy bedrooms 

and bathrooms, and sleeps EIGHT! 

Melissa's decorating choices are 

always spot-on. 

Even though it's new construction, 

vintage touches are found throughout. 

Old tin ceiling added, antique pocket doors, 

and vintage doors as headboards. 

Lots of reclaimed wood for the floors and beams. 

Sigh....

So what lies beyond the second floor landing 

at Finch Feather Guest House ? 

Check back next week to see more. :-)
