New arrivals at Daphne Nicole Boutique

These are just a few of the new items we will be adding to our apparel page soon!

I love this dress/top, you can dress it up a bit with a beautiful scarf.
The top part is removable for another total different look.






I love these new beautiful lace scarves, and my pictures do not do them justice.... I just could not get good lighting today!





Watch for new items to be added soon! Hope everyone is having a great week!!!

Beautiful Kitchens!

I find myself loving the color gray a lot these days. I think it's so beautiful in this kitchen. I'm also looking for lots of inspiration since I'm finally going to redo my kitchen. No I'm not one of those do it yourself people, so now I'm just waiting for the contractor to give me some bids, and I'm getting very inpatient. I'm ready to get this started!

I do plan on having touches of gray in my new kitchen!
I will be showing before and after pictures of our redo, as we go through the transformation of our kitchen. I love the ideal of putting marble on my island, and I'm already pretty sure that I want granite counter tops. I don't want it to be all the same, I like mixing different elements together!
Definitely going with all stainless appliances. After the kitchen is all redone I'll be getting my hands into some major decorating in our home, and yes this is where I come in. I do love the decorating part. I'm so ready for a total new look! I had planned to go with an elegant French look and of course everything being white and off whites, still want the whites but thinking for now I might go with a French farmhouse look. What do you think!

New Items Listed

Be sure to check out all of the new items listed on our website.... we have added more purses, pillows, & jewelry. We will also be adding more apparel and scarves to our website soon also.

I love mixing the leopard print with the vintage material. It has such a rich look to it!
This purse is just dripping with beautiful looped ribbon all over it!

This is one of my newest designs, I've been doing the cowhide and vintage for a long time, but not in this style, and I really love the way it turned out! I love mixing cowhide with the beautiful vintage fabrics. I started doing these western purses years ago, because I had never seen anything like these before, and I loved the end result. On this one I used a vintage collar across the front, and it added the perfect touch to this purse. It's a look I would like to call all my very own.... for right now anyway!



At Daphne Nicole we do a little bit of everything from the vintage purses, canvas, lace and crochet pieces to the western chic. I'm the same way with materials as I am in decorating, I have many different styles, really too many sometimes it gets overwhelming!


This is one of my favorite pillows. I love the mixture of the fabrics!

We have added new jewelry to our vintage jewelry page. We have 3 categories of jewelry, Sterling Silver, designed by Lynda Cade, vintage Jewelry, and new fun jewelry.




Hope everyone has a wonderful week! To check out our website go to www.daphnenicole.com or you can find it at the top of our page!

Missing my Booth!

Thought I would share a few pictures from a previous booth I had. This booth was at Spice in Waco, Tx. I moved out of it for several years ago , but I really miss not having a booth, I especially love the decorating part of it!




When I had this booth I also had 3 other booths all in seperate directions, I did end up giving this one up, so now I had 3 places, opened my online store.... still to much , so I ended up giving up all of 3 booths. My online store www.daphnenicole.com , and selling at Laurie Anna's every month keeps me really busy, so don't think I will be getting a booth anytime soon!
Did I mention I was also setting up at Canton every month..... what was I thinking!!!
It's hard sometimes trying to get everything balanced out. I thought I could do it all, but learned that I can't do everything, ( it was wearing me out.) I love having my own on line boutique and love selling at Laurie's beautiful store! I think I'm doing exactly what I'm supposed to be doing now!

On to something a little different the picture above and the one's below where taken at Savannah Georgia on our vacation back in April. I saw some really beautiful homes there, but this one was my favorite of all.

I just love the gold trim around all of the windows, it's absolutely gorgeous!!!
This was a store that we passed by, it has the most beautiful architectural elements. I was drooling by this point! I took lots of pictures while we were there, beautiful homes, stores, and churches were around every corner! Hope you enjoyed my rambling's for today!!!

Wishing for Winter

Oh how I'm wishing for cooler weather. I never remember it being this hot before! It's so hot outside that it just zaps any energy that I have. I have to get up really early if I have things to do outside, because by 8 or 9 it's already getting to hot! So thought I would show some of my snow pictures from last year! Oh how I wish it was snowing right now!

I loved it when it snowed last year! Oh again, how I wish it where snowing right now!

I know my sweet dogs are ready for cooler weather too. I've been going out and soaking them with cool water during the day. They have never let me spray them with the water before, but now their loving it!



Praying that we get some cooler weather and rain soon!

Country Church Wedding

I love weddings so thought I would share some photo's I took at my niece's wedding last weekend! When we turned into the driveway of the church my heart skipped a beat...... why you asked, well it's because I absolutely love the look of the older churches. This was such a sweet, well taken care of little church in the country. When we go on trips I'm always taking pictures of old churches..... and another love of mine is old barns. I would love to make one my home, but don't think hubby would go for it! Speaking about living in a church building.... what about making one into a store, this is just what this Shawna did, check out her blog @ http://petticoatsandpatina.blogspot.com/ be sure to tell her I sent you!


What a cute couple they make!
Avery's dress was so beautiful.



Another picture of this darling church!



These last pictures were taken from my phone and their not the best!


Avery with her Daddy, also my brother!
Here's the cute couple, Brent and Avery on their way out! Instead of throwing rice we were blowing bubbles at them!
Well I went to a wedding last week, but plan on staying home to watch I love Lucy marathon this weekend. It's my favorite thing to watch, you could say that I'm obsession with the show. I have it recorded and watch it most every night... can't go to sleep until I see an episode or 2, or 3 or 4. I don't get to watch much TV anymore except at night when I should be sleeping. I stay to busy for that, so I think it will be a nice change. I've been working on new items for my website this week, and do need a break. What will you be doing this weekend!
