A few weeks ago I listed a few Western*Rustic*Vintage Mail Order Catalogs that you might enjoy.  There was one on that list that arrived in my mailbox this week, the super-fabulous At West End catalog…  {it’s been a good week for my mailbox – in addition to yesterday’s PBKids I also received my Western Interiors and Cowboys & Indians magazines – tune in next week for more on those!!}

The merchandise pictured in the At West End catalog, and on their website, is incredibly fresh and the photography has left me swooning.  Launched in August of 2006, At West End doesn’t have a brick & mortar shop – thank heavens for online shopping – or you can click HERE to request a catalog be sent to your snail-mail-box. 

It is evident that creative passion is being poured into each item – no doubt that these are pieces meant to make your home smile!!  Here are just a few of the things I just LOVE!!

The yard sign {ABOVE} is only $39 – what a great gift for those of you headed to a friend’s lake house this summer!! {there is also a Merry Christmas sign & even more choices in the catalog}

The Rustic * Vintage finish on many of the products makes them both friendly and also usable.  Both of the Candle Holders {ABOVE} could find a home in almost any decor, especially with the current trend of adding a rustic touch to even the purest of traditional and modern interiors.

With temperatures rising I really enjoyed the cool approach to outdoor living and entertaining that At West End presented.  I am definitely putting the White Stoneware {ABOVE} and the Tilted Pitcher {BELOW} on my Wish List!!

I get this feeling in the pit of my stomach when I see, for the first time, some Rustic * Western * Vintage decor that is new to me.  Be it product, art, architecture, interior design, and definitely in a well-merchandised store ~ it’s similiar to the feeling of walking into a magnificent home and thinking “wow – this is brilliant – I could stay here forever!!”.  For me it is being in awe of the creativity, passion and commitment that people have to their homes and their stuff.  A big thank you to At West End for giving me that feeling in the pit of my stomach!!

I came across a fabulous store on the www called Tradicione’s.  Located in El Paso, Texas, they have been offering the rustic furniture we LOVE since 1970.  This is the real deal, folks!!  Tradicione’s also offers furniture constructed to your specifications – not only on the web but also in their two stores (both are located in El Paso - sounds like a Road Trip!!).  Here are a few pieces I am loving…

Tlaquepaque Amoire #4 - Here is what I am loving about this armoire - not only is it designed with Southwest Iron Doors (which is fabulous!!) – it can be ordered with the iron work on the inside of the door as well (see above).  That means that even when it is open it is still gorgeous!! 
 

Conquistador Ranger Desk - It would be a pleasure to go to your office every day with a desk like this one!!  There are tons of options – you don’t have to go with cowhide and carved stars.  And, of course, you may have as many custom alterations as you would like…  Love it!!

Texarkana Executive Chair - What is a fabulous desk without a fabulous chair??  Notice this one has a custom brand carved into the top of the seat back.  Tradicione’s can do any kind of custom carving you are seeking…  What’s your brand going to be??

I could go on and on – Tradicione’s is a great site!!  But I must run and pack – tomorrow we head to Round Top!!  Yippee…  I can’t wait to post pictures from the fabulous Lone Star State.  Till then…  Happy Trails!!
