The Richards home remodel

Okay FW Ladies – If you have been wondering what I have been doing the past several weeks, click above and you will see!  I have been at a week long NM fashion thing, but I have also been building my new site.  The Richards Home Remodel has grown into The Fort.  The Fort will be more about new FYI’s in Fort Worth that include home design, remodel, fashion, or anything else I may be in the mood to post.  I will still keep you informed on our house remodel .  Email me any new openings or shops you hear about.  I need all the help I can get being informed! xoxo Traci

Enjoy!

Who doesn’t love a flea market? The Fort finally has a “Trade Day” for your viewing pleasure. Located at Ridgmar Farmers Market, across from our Neiman Marcus mall, is the newest THIRD MONDAY in FW. I have to say, I have not been yet since they have only had two, therefore, I am counting on someone to tell me how this goes. Flea Markets, just like antique shops are hit or miss. I love to find a diamond in the rough though! Give me a shout if you go. I would love to hear how this Trade Day compares.

Architectural Digest posted on their website this month 100 Great Spaces. Check it out. Here are just a few of my favorite shots. Enjoy!

Happy Easter! Nice find today via my gal Christina with Down & Out Chic blog. She came across Fabricadabra, a cost effective & organic site for beautiful pillows. Here are a few of my favorites. Thanks again Christina!

I am in love with these new candles from Jonathan Adler available at byrd + bleecker on Park Hill.  My two favorite scents are Palm Beach & Capri.

Enjoy some yummy interiors from NY Designer Robyn Karp.

Mom called me last week to let me know about another new antique store opening. Thanks Mom! The Fort continues getting new home stores with great finds! House of Wynn is two buildings full of European antique furniture, jewelry, teas, coffee, dishes, table linens and art deco items. Evelyn Wynn, owner and designer, was tired of putting all of her finds all over Dallas and Fort Worth. She now has two buildings full of good finds at a great price! She also offers a full design service including windows and blinds. House of Wynn is open Wednesday to Sunday, across from the Flying Fish at 3525 Lovell Avenue at Vickery intersection. So, have some lunch at Flying Fish, walk to House of Wynn, then continue your antiquing day at Montgomery Street Antique mall. What a perfect day.
