I so wish they would open one nearby, but even the Williams Sonoma outlet closed at Woodbury Commons. The one I went to was on Long Island in Riverhead. It’s a beautiful, big store but too far away.<br /><br />Can’t wait to share the rest of our Christmas home.

Your family room is ...It's beautiful, Courtney! Your family room is such a warm and inviting space. I love the stone on your fireplace. I think if we were going to do anything to our fireplace it would be a stone surround. Great find on the tray to use as a mirror. I'm never happy when I feel like I've bought something just to fill a spot. Or as you say, you feel like you "settled". Sometimes it pays to wait for that special item to appear. Your tree looks gorgeous, too. I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of the room.Kathy @ Creative Home Expressionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01341667486449125153noreply@blogger.com
