Like something right out of a magazine

"About a year ago," Grace Partridge of Vancouver, British Columbia, wrote in a recent email, "I wandered into your lovely shop and purchased this big red r. It sat on my table for a while, then it sat on another table. Then I put it on a desk for a few months. Then I moved. Then I moved again," she said.

"I am happy to announce that it finally has the permanent home it deserves. Prominently displayed in the living room, it also happens to be the first thing you see when you walk through the front door. Thank you!"

All we want to add is, "Wow!" This vignette has all the star quality of a layout in Elle Decor magazine, showcasing a simple, fresh blend of vintage and new furnishings and decor details. We also appreciate that it can take a while to decide on a place that feels right for the vintage sign letters you choose at Timeless Treasures. Shall they go above the sofa? On a wall in the hall? In the kitchen? The family room? What about above the bed?

Sometimes it simply takes a while to find where that letter feels right at home.

Thanks for sending along this Show 'n Tell, Grace!
