Vintage Inspiration # 97 Fiona and Twig

We've all been patiently waiting for these Farmhouse Photos from Anne at Fiona and Twig. Anne and her husband James moved into their turn-of-the-century farmhouse in Fredericksburg, Texas last year, and now we're finally getting to see their wonderfully decorated spaces. 

These are glimpses of her Living Room 
and her gorgeous Carol Hicks Bolton Sofa,
while her gallery wall of mirrors is still a work in progress.















Anne proves that her photography and stylist skills
also represent her beautiful take on vintage living.


If you don't know Anne,
 then you're missing a sweet, talented, and beautiful lady.
I can say that 'cause she just happens to be my dear friend.

See her wonderful blog and get to know her better at Fiona and Twig,
where she is having a Give Away going on right now.



and MORE great links from last week!


Bringing the inside-outside, Karrie used burlap to make curtains in
Decorating the Milk House with the Summer Kitchen Girls.



Karen at Redoux took a ho-hum mission styled cabinet
and transformed it into French Country fabulousness.



Danielle from Blessed Serendipity created this ruffled paradise
"Anthropologie Inspired" Quilt from vintage bed sheets.



has found a creative way to use her stash of porch pillars;
 this wonderful bird retreat.



And I fell in love with this wonderful "bookpage" inspiration board
 from Becky at Timewashed. 
(She even shares a tutorial)


Thanks everyone for coming by each week to link up all your
wonderful Vintage Inspiration.
Remember it's
"anything vintage or vintage inspired"
please have a link back to Common Ground
within your post to be featured.

and while you're out partying,
 you'll want to visit these other great Friday Parties!









This Vintage Inspiration is brought to you by
my wonderfully talented sponsor, Leslie Janson

Debra, what a lovely way to honor a friend. This is why everyone who "meets" you wants to be your friend as well. I know Anne knows how fortunate she is to be one of your BFF's!
You inspire me just by being you and even though I don't usually join parties, I'm linking to yours today. I'm hoping when I grow up to be just like you...a dear, caring soul!

Thank you so much for the feature. What an honor to be among these gorgeous features. Thank you as always for my little virtual vacation I have when I come to this party.

A friend of mine whose husband spent many years in the army told me that is what these desks were built for. I did not know this!
