Rose Bowl Mania!

What a fantastic November day here in Southern California!  Wow are we blessed!  The sun was out, a nice breeze in the air and a flea market filled with amazing energy and people!  To all of you who came by our booth today, thank you so much for your words of support and, of course, for your purchases.  Today was hands-down, our best day yet!  Here are a few pictures from our most recent flea market adventure!

 
(note: morrocan table, martini pitcher, pink tables, peacock and silver bowl no longer available.)

We loaded up our 14 foot U Haul last night!  Yikes!  We certainly shopped for finds this month!


(note: Chinese garden stool no longer available.)

We left our houses at 4:00 am and were set up (the first time) by 5:30.


(note: front 2 bells, aqua glasses and orange and brass 
lidded compote no longer available.)

Yes, we rearranged our vignettes.  Who does that at flea markets?  We have interior styling obsession issues! 




                                                                
(note: chair, peacock and mirrored vanity tray no longer available.)

(note: chairs are no longer available)

(note: chairs and table are the only items still available)

Actually managed to get a pic with one of us in it, of course once no one was around.


We're already looking forward to next month & can't wait to see what we find until then!  


Mark your calendars, next Rose Bowl Flea Market is December 11th. For details click here.

New Kid on the Blot...

  When setting out to find the perfect logo to represent our new venture of vintage interiors, the search was over just shortly after it began. Our current obsession, which inspired our first collection, was an organic decision...the inkblot. 
  In love with it's endless possibilities of interpretation and it's timeless appeal (with just the right amount of edge), it could not be more appropriate. And so it was, G3Q Designs was born...our finds, your interpretation. 
Ikat step aside, there's a new kid on the blot!


 I love the way Christopher Crawford used this giant inkblot on canvas as the focal point of an otherwise minimalist room. The perfect mix with modern industrial interiors!




One of many to die for custom wallpapers by Eskayel!



If the wallpaper is too far out of your budget (custom wallpaper does not come cheap), they offer amazing housewares like these pillows!


Slightly more affordable versions available at Hettle.I'm DYING to get my DIY on for an even more custom version - no pun intended!


Love, love, love this mini dress from Australian designer Dion Lee's Spring '11 collection. 



The Atomic Rorschach wicker chair. Available for sale at our Etsy store. An edgy twist on a traditional chair.
