Company C and Me

On vacation in New Hampshire,

my girl friend Judy,

 took me to some of her favorite shops

 in Concord, the capital of NH.

First stop was Company C.

It has three stores located

in Portland ME, Hingham MA, & Concord NH.

This store blew me away!

An explosion of colors in the pillow department

I found a lilac rug on sale in this pile for my purple dining room!

It looks like lace. Pattern name is Cluny.

It is 80% wool 20% cotton

It hung in the Maine store window and was faded.

Original price $1960. I paid $125. Yippee.

It makes the room, I think.

Company C even tweeted me that they

thought it looked great after they read my post.

Phew, glad they agree!

I also bought this rug for my Boston living room.

I plan on redecorating in pinks and aquas.

Look for this project in a future post coming soon!

some of the other pretty patterns in aqua....

Isn't this ottoman upholstered in carpet phenomenal?

This fabric is from their Bermuda Collection.

I am going to try this out someday on an old ottoman...

Company C has a rug on the cover of

Flea Market Style this month too!

Matthew Mead, FMS editor makes

appearances at their store to discuss decorating.

They have lovely painted pieces in fresh colors.

So inspirational.

This grouping is from the Bermuda collection.

The beds are yellow,

but these pics were taken with my iphone,

so the color far away didn't translate well.

They do a nice job of using rustic vintage finishes as well.

These old garage doors are in a lovely washed out celery color.

My advice to you all if you want a jolt of color

in a fresh updated way:

visit Company C

online or at one of their stores.

You'll be glad you did!
