I had so much fun at the World Market Montgomeryville grand opening last week! It was a great night filled with lots of shopping, meeting other bloggers who I have been reading for years, and discovering the new store.
Some of the other bloggers in attendance: Beth (Home Stories A to Z), Monica (East Coast Creative), Kelly (Eclectically Vintage), Julia (Cuckoo 4 Design), Kathleen (Grosgrain)
I also got to hang out with Lauren (Heart of Deborah), Becca (My Girlish Whims) and Chaney (May Richer Fuller Be). I always get nervous before these events, but it was super relaxed and fun. I’ve been shopping at World Market for a good year now, but could only do it online. It was so fun to actually be able to shop in the store!
I just LOVE all of their knobs – it took a lot of willpower to not buy at least 10 different kinds of them while I was at the grand opening:
If I had room for this desk, it would have come home with me. I seriously love the x-detail and the color:
And this little one was SO cute – I actually asked for it, but they didn’t have any left at the store. Bummer!
But I love what I ended up buying:
I bought the Madera console table:
I really love the baskets under the table too – they look beautiful outside of there as well – like in our office:
We don’t have any overhead lighting in this room, so I knew I wanted something bright and higher up on the wall. I picked the bronze twisted wire pendant lamp:
I can’t decide – I think I’m going to try to use an Edison bulb in it, but it’s lower wattage. Any suggestions?
And I’m not so secretly obsessed with this mirror. I LOVE it so incredibly much!
Now that World Market is only about 20 minutes away, I’ll be there so often. I am so excited to finally have one within driving distance!
Huge thanks to World Market for sponsoring this post. As always, all opinions are 100% my own – full disclosure here.

Those KNOBS! I love everything you bought… And I think the Edison bulb is a GREAT idea! You put everything together beautifully, as always.

your style amazes me. and your photography. you amaze me in general. 😀 This looks so GOOD and I had so much fun getting to see you again at the event!!
Lauren says
Oh my goodness. That place is my kryptonite. Love EVERYTHING you got, Christina! And might have to sneak in there to snag one of those desks. Ah!
Lauren says
Oh, and I second an Edison bulb. 😉 We have one over our kitchen table and it still gives off good light. I think they make LED Edison bulbs now too.
Christina says
oooh good to know! We have some over our kitchen island too, but they’re a little dimmer than I’d like :/ But I’ll have to look into the LED lights! 🙂
Megan says
Loofa what you styled – so pretty! We just put edison bulbs in our new chandelier and I love the way it looks. It’s not super bright, but we have an additional light in the room plus a bunch of natural light during the day…so it works. I’d try it out and see what you think! 🙂

love it, Megan! Thanks for commenting – I think I’m going to try to go for an Edison bulb and see if it’s enough light 🙂
