First Stop on the shopping trip is Ruby Begonia's. Love this shop. Lot's of vintage goodies and cute vintage clothes. |
Don't you love her red front door. |
Look at the chippy old office door so much chippy goodness in this shop. |
Loved all her Easter vignettes throughout the store. |
So much vintage cuteness. |
My mom and my friend Sandy as we are getting ready to go into Traci's shop Whimsy. |
Lot's of great treasures in this shop. |
Next was The Feathered Nest. Very cute shop. |
This little beauty was calling to me with it's shabby cute slipcover and how comfy it was to sit in. I am thinking about going back to get this one. |
One of the Lovely shop owners of The Feathered Nest and the wonderful seamstress that sewed that beautiful slipcover for the chair that I think I may need!!!!!https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Feathered-Nest/ |
Ahhhhh My fav shop. Oh la la some great things always in side this shop. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Vintage-Yesterdays-Memories-Todays-Treasures |
It is hard to see her cute windows with my pictures but trust me they were so adorable all Lacey and chippy and vintage. |
Old vintage bike in the window. You know how I love vintage bikes. |
More of the vintage doilie tops. I had to get one. |
Some really fun ruffled aprons. |
The cottage room one of my favorite. Always find chippy whites in here. |
Then finally to the Letty Mae's tea room for our yummy lunch. |
Hope you all had a great Easter yesterday. Ours was really fun and I am exhausted but it is a good exhausted!!!! Everyone goes home today so I will have my quiet cottage back!!!!!
Wow, you have some great shops by you, Kris! I think I would have spent money in every one! : ) That chair is really pretty and if it is comfy, too, I would be thinking about buying it, too. Lots of eye candy in these pictures!

Anne,
DeleteI can't wait to take you there. It is such a great little town and fun!!! The tea room is so sweet and quaint and yummy. We really have to get a date to go.
Kris
I'm ready to jump on a plane so I can come shopping in this quaint town!! Definitely my kind of place.
ReplyDeleteMary Alice
Oh Mary Alice we would have such a great time in those shops. I wish you lived closer!!! It is a fun town.
DeleteKris
So much to see and so little time-what a great little town-glad you all had fun together.
ReplyDeleteHi Ellie,
DeleteWe did have a great time. It was a great day. Very mild for weather and the sun was out so it was very nice.
Kris
Oh- That looks like a fun town. It reminds me of Door County and all the shops there. I have never heard of Morris but it is not all that far South of my daughter's home in Milwaukee. Thanks for the tour- now go take a nice nap- xo Diana
ReplyDeleteHi Diana,
DeleteIt would be a little hike from your daughter's in Milwaukee but so worth it. It would be all express way so not too bad.
My company all left today so I am going to sleep well tonight. I am so tired!!!! It was a lot of fun but a lot of work and a little drama with some family members is you know what I mean :)!!!!! So after I dropped the last batch of family at the airport I did a little happy dance in my car on the way home from the airport!!!!!
Thanks as always for your sweet comments.
Kris
These are always my favorite posts looking at little shops! I loved the cottage room, and the doily tops were adorable, what a fun day. I'm in Orlando and it was just about the same weather here as you had there, so mom was not missing any warm weather down south!
ReplyDeleteCarol
Hi Carol,
DeleteMy mom was kind of glad to get on the plane today as it was only 39 here but I guess they are saying we will warm up this week and hopefully stay warmer. I think you guys are warming up too. Poor Spring breakers down there. Thanks for coming by.
Kris
I love the storefronts they are so charming!
ReplyDeleteThey really are so cute. The town is very old and the buildings have such character. Have a great week.
DeleteKris
Thanks for sharing these shops! Sounds like an awesome day out! I definitely need to go for a drive and check them out one of these days!! I love those little spindle bird houses in the Whimsy shop photo, they look similar to yours.... I need to get some like that!
ReplyDeletePattie
Hi Pattie,
DeleteIf you live near Morris it is really worth it. The shops so cute and the tea room really sweet for lunch. I love the feel of the town too. Very old and quaint. Have a great week.
Kris
Kris...it looks like you all had a great day out shopping. We use to have a shop in the town next to us that was just like these...with lots of white and wonderful vintage pieces. I was so sad last week when my friend and I went there to only find that it had closed. Sure wish I lived closer to your area...I would so love shopping in these shops.
ReplyDeletehugs,
Cindy
Hi Cindy,
DeleteDon't you hate it when you have a favorite shop and then they close. It is a shame. I had a favorite shop up near me that closed and I use to get the best stuff in there. I felt bad when the store owner had to close especially when they build up their business and then can't make it. Hope you had a great Easter. Have a great week.
Kris
Oh, how fun to shop in these kind of shops! And especially with a friend that enjoys it. I like the chair too! Thanks for sharing your fun day! Nancy http://cozythymecottage.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteam really thinking about that chair. I am going to see if it is still not sold this week end and if not maybe it is meant to be mine. It will give me a few more days to think about it too. Just not sure I need another chair!!!!! Have a great week.
DeleteKris
Morris looks awesome! My kinda day right there and with Mom next to you, it can't get any better than that! Hope you enjoyed your Easter.
ReplyDeleteDebbie it was a great day. We had a lot of fun and our weather here finally was pretty mild and the sun was out. It was nice to walk around the town. Have a great week.
DeleteKris
What a perfect day--thanks so much for sharing it! You must get that slipcovered chair--adorable!
ReplyDeleteIt was a special day and the weather was finally nice here. We had a good time. I am recouping today since all my company is gone now. Wooooo fun but exhausting too!!! Hope you have a great week.
DeleteKris
Kris, what are you doing showing all this gorgeous shopping when I have to go to work!? I want to call in sick and sit and pour over each picture. Thanks for taking your camera and giving us a little slice of shopping fun. I'll have to come back and revisit after work!
ReplyDeleteLiz
Hi,
DeleteI know it is such a great little town and great little shops!!!! So worth calling in sick for!!!! Ha Ha!!!! Have a great day. I know you will be busy with your treasures too!!!
Kris
Kris, now I'm really sad that you won't be there to take me to these wonderful shops during my visit!! So much eye candy! I'm thinking that you HAVE to have that chair-it's amazing and would be perfect in your house! :)
ReplyDeleteSusan
I wish you were going to have a car so you and Keith could go to this great little town. I know it would be so much fun for you. You must come in again and I will take you there. It is a great little town.
DeleteKris

ReplyDeleteIt is so worth it. So when you come in to visit your son I will give you directions to get there and you must go and make a day of it. It is so much fun and great shops and the tea room so yummy. Hope you had a great Easter.
DeleteKris
I'm only about 8 hours away... might be worth the drive!! All the shops looks so adorable and BIG trouble, but BIG fun for me! Hope you had a great time with your Mom and family over Easter!

Hi Kris,
ReplyDeleteWhat fun looking shoppes! Bet yall had a blast........and also that tea room. I haven't
been to a tea room in ages..........they are always so quaint and cozy, and usually have
delectable and unique food. Don't even know if we still have any tea rooms around here anymore. Glad you got to enjoy having so much fun with your Mom and friend, know she really enjoyed herself too. The weather sounds like it was perfect... for that sort of outing.
Have a great weekend hon,
Blessings, Nellie
Oh, forgot to mention the angel sign for Ruby Begonias. love the sign and the name.
ReplyDeleteVery quaint............all those shops had a lot of really unique and fun
things too.
Blessings again, Nellie
What a fun shopping trip! I've seen some of those shops in magazines, either featured or in ads and it's great to see photos of them! So many wonderful items! I really think that you need that chair - it's so sweet! Glad your mom enjoyed it and that the weather cooperated. Sounds like y'all had a nice Easter and that everything went well - yay! Now you can relax! Hugs, Leena
ReplyDeleteHi Kris ~
ReplyDeleteI was just drooling over all of your posts, when low and behold, there is a post about my town!! So glad that you enjoyed your visit! Didn't know if you ever came out to Morris when we have our 3 French Hens "French Country Market"? It's the second saturday every month starting in May and ends in November. I think you would LOVE it! There are some pictures on my blog in case you were interested. Hope you come back some time real soon!
