Kennebunkport Vacation Home Tour

It seems strange to still be writing about the summer when fall seems to be looming in the air.  But I wanted to share one last post about our summer trip to Kennebunkport.  We stayed in a fabulous little cottage with a channel bay view on one side and an ocean view on the other.  It's on Gooch's beach in it's own little neighborhood of houses.  This was our fifth year going to Kennebunkport with the kids so it's become our family summer tradition.  It's one summer trip we look forward to because we know we can relax and expect the same familiarity in the shops and restaurants year after year.

In the mornings and evenings, the kids love to take walks on the beach when dogs are allowed to play...and every so often, we catch a glimpse of Barbara Bush walking with her dogs too!

Ahhh, now we'll have to relive the vacation for another year through the pictures.  Today, we have Vivi's Kindergarten orientation for school.  School starts for us on Monday!

Pallian and Company: Kennebunkport


I'm really dragging out my shopping tour of Kennebunkport! 

So far, I've showed y'all

Spaces, my all time favorite home accessories store in Kennebunkport.  I have my eye on that Asher Market alpaca throw for my Master. 

Americana where I found my turquoise crackerbox and sailboat print for the guest room.

And Antiques on Nine where I found those wonderfully colored pill boxes and brilliant pillows.

Today, it's all about Pallian and Company

This is a wonderful home accessories and gift shop located on 2049 Post Road in Wells, Maine.  (207) 646-1600. 
There are rooms and rooms of fabulously styled tables filled with exceptional home accessories.  They also offer interior design.  Upstairs, there are two large rooms....on one side there is artwork that would be perfect in a chic Kennebunkport beach cottage (or anywhere for that matter). 
 
The other side has individual beds that have been styled with high end bedding and accessories (Dash & Albert, Pine Cone Hill and more). 
I fell in love with that Heron painting--it was sold!

Pallian and Company is open year round.  I guarantee you will find something in here you love!  They have many kitchen cookbooks, bath accessories, an entire room for gardening and flowering.

And they have just launched the website.  Online shopping will be available soon.
