I am back and ready to share all the wonderful design inspiration that I acquired while on a family vacation in Ireland. As I gather all the photos and information together I thought I would do a short little post on Francis Street in Dublin. I dragged my girls and husband with me as I hoped to find a few shops opened on a Monday in Dublin. I was not disappointed, a few were not only opened but they were chock full of gorgeous antiques that I wish I could have crated and brought home with me! If you have the pleasure of shopping for clients or yourself in Dublin please check out this link about Francis Street and the shops associated with it HERE. I was also thrilled to find that one of the shops have a liason shop here in NYC! Enjoy some of my favorite finds and remember to add antiques into your home, one can even mix them into the most contemporary of settings! Three of my favorite Shops featured on this post about Francis Street are as follows: Michael Connell Antiques, O'Sullivan Antiques-also in NYC and Martin Fennelly Antiques. Enjoy and stay posted as you wont want to miss my post on the manor home of Killarney- Coolclogher!

Since I am a bird lover this stunning piece had me mesmerized!
This mirror with shelving was unbelievable one could display gorgeous jars or vases, swoon worthy!
Only disappointment was that Patricia Downey Design was not open. The window vignette was wonderful so I know I would have loved this shop!
