Between work, parties and events and a weekend away, the past few weeks have been crazy. But I am sure that’s the case with you, too!
I was lucky enough to be invited up to NYC for a quick weekend and I stayed at a friend’s family’s apartment on the Upper East Side. It was a low key weekend with shopping, a quiet Saturday night and Sunday morning, more shopping and then a pretty easy drive home.
This is the cozy nook that was my room for the weekend. It’s between a church and a school, and you can just see a bit of the stained glass through the window.
One of our first stops was Creel & Gow, a little treasure chest of all things weird and wonderful. It brought back fun memories of the late shop, The House of Beauty & Culture in London.
The barware selection at Hadley Antiques. LOVED everything!
Moonrise over Long Island City.
More of the apartment in NYC. Two views of the dining room.
The library.
The owner’s collection of greyhounds.

There is a grove of Japanese maples near my house. Every autumn, it puts on a stunning show.
The kick off to the Festive Season is always the lighting of the Washington Monument in Baltimore
Some pretty from the party after the lighting.

All for now! Have a great weekend!
Your photos capture the season so well, Meg. The bird's nest is exquisite. Sounds like your NYC weekend was most enjoyable!
