REVIVAL ~ Antiques and more in Raleigh. . . . . . . .

I paid a long overdue visit to one of my favorite shops on a recent
 Sunday afternoon.

Before we headed to the Ansel Adams exhibition at the art museum, 

my granddaughter and I enjoyed an hour here at REVIVAL'S

 Spring Open House.

REVIVAL is always full of amazing painted furniture, antique and
 vintage. Their team of craftsmen turn the scratched and battered,
 faded and worn into pieces so beautiful you want to take them all home.  

Then there are the accessories, lovely items, again some antique, others
 vintage, many new, and all certain to look attractive in any home.

Below are some of the special things which caught my eye.

Their black painted pieces are outstanding - they do many other colors also.

One of Revival's three cute shop cats.

Some cool music played in the back room - Ed Moon 

Jazz Trio - and there were great refreshments being served.

Jasmin and I both fell for these black and white botanical prints.
We like how they are framed between glass with distressed black painted frames.

We purchased the pair - the one below is here at the cottage in my
 living room - and Jasmin took the other one home with her.  

Some day in the future I'm sure the two will hang somewhere as a pair 

once again!

That was certainly a busy but very enjoyable Sunday afternoon. 
After the art museum we also stopped by the arboretum to see what
 was starting to bloom, then headed  to a Mediterranean restaurant
 for an early supper.
