Should have known I'd find something else; an old, white painted ice cream parlor chair called out to me. Another exchange at the checkout counter and the chair made it into the van, too.Chartreuse is a winner to add to the list of super stops! My friend Lydia told me about this place some time ago; it is a group shop in a few buildings behind a private home out in the country. Open once a month for a weekend, my junior shopper and I finally made it over to a sale today.
In a way, Chartreuse reminded me of a hybrid of a couple of shops we went to a week ago. The outside has a mix of cottagey furniture and salvage materials and the insides of the main building and the little cottage are very put together and inviting. In other words, something for everyone.
When you enter the main building, grab a wicker shopping basket and see this:

And this is only part of what there is to see.The darling kitty who is at home everywhere:
A very sweet experience all around. You, too, can be part of this if you're in the MD/VA/DC/PA area. Check it out!

Jana and Joan, thanks for leaving your comments. I follow both your blogs and enjoy hearing about all your great finds!
OK, I was there just after you left and see loads of things that must've been whisked out early. There were tons of SOLD signs on everything. The owners told me the big buyers get there EARLY. I still scored; will post tonight! XOX
You should see the mural on their kitchen wall! Got to see it once. Way cool.
