Happy Weekend!

It's Friday and somewhere near is a swimming pool and cold watermelon waiting for me and my family.  Wishing you all a fabulous weekend.  Enjoy, Heidi

Hello, my name is Heidi Jaster and I am an Interior Stylist.

A great friend of mine told me recently that one way to find out what your bliss is, is to imagine that you are at a party and you are introducing yourself to someone. Imagine you do not have your current job, but a dream job of something you absolutely love doing even if it does not make any money or really isn't considered a job. O.K.

Enjoy the tour of my store that I have styled and photographed.

Welcome to my shop. Everything you see that is blue and white is new to the store. Last week I bought out an antiques dealer all of her blue and white at the fall antiques show.

Thank you Anna Spiro for inspiring me.

I also sell calenders and stationary of high quality, vintage reproduction prints.

I am always in Hunting Mode, yes this is a bird house made from a tea pot.

I am loving all of this blue and white.

Here are artist erasers.

(I had to make a sign, customers thought they were soap, rocks and not sure)

There is some sort of friendship with blue and white and shells. It's like peanut butter and jelly.
I am almost complete with painting all of my doors black, inside and out.
Don't they just say "Pow!"
Old lace $1 per piece.

Yes, that is a old garden gate with a lawn mower, hanging on the wall.
The gate and all of the green shutters came from my Grandma's homestead.
Customers frown when I tell them that they are not for sale. Sorry:(
One rule: I buy what I like.

I am an expert of making something out of nothing.
Here is my Faux Coral (oak branches spray painted red).

Mercury glass, old letters and disco balls, oh my.

I hope you enjoyed my store. I do take credit for hunting down all of this stuff, arranging it and also photographing it. I am looking for the next step in my life and I know without a doubt that if I were a stylist, I would ROCK! So if there are any Australian Home and Garden Magazines out there reading this, I am willing to move. Did I mention that I'm a kick butt Florist and Gardner? That's another post. Heidi

My Kitchen Sink Corner.

Welcome to my unique home. This is the kitchen sink area that is not even in the kitchen but it is around the corner from it. I have an abundance of mirrors in my home since I do not have many windows. The floors we sanded and painted and then I sanded them again to give a distressed look. Now even if they are a little dirty they just look distressed.

I have a thing for clocks, silver, black, trophies, flowers, bugs, tortoiseshell and German stuff, (since I am a German Girl). These flowers are made of pieces of rolled up wax paper.

This German badge has 2 sides. This is the side worn at funerals, the other side is yellow and red. I don't know what organization it is from but it does say Berlin, Texas and that is just up the road from Burton. I love the bullion and the bee skip on it. Enjoy, Heidi
