The first picture is of my favorite room - an oval shaped library located in the center of the second floor of this 3-story store.

When you first walk in it looks like they are ceramic tiles. Instead they are painted on what appears to be a faux tile panelled fiberboard - something that is akin to sheets of bead board panelling and probably available at a Lowes or Home Depot. <span style="color:#663300;"><strong>Ingenious idea!</strong><br /></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifeQjnfX9wwtJwfPb-O867NLPIz18kaBXzwecRlU4R7XpU6UmvG0_OTRCtm8bG-bEuUfQntvw7BtDKFoHw0dKTY9wKMl2Futq_knQCjgTSId19o0X4GlTZyvKfimlnBZR2VLN_NVLbp6iG/s1600-h/atlanta+011+(2).jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306210219439645570" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifeQjnfX9wwtJwfPb-O867NLPIz18kaBXzwecRlU4R7XpU6UmvG0_OTRCtm8bG-bEuUfQntvw7BtDKFoHw0dKTY9wKMl2Futq_knQCjgTSId19o0X4GlTZyvKfimlnBZR2VLN_NVLbp6iG/s800/atlanta+011+(2).jpg" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9m6yWEKi_IIJXoEEbcAfL-7ncJ-ZpGq6IjsqWe3GGYT9rl5m4fEjM42ytd_6foeP3xnWSKoH_cWCpXd2j82VCEl_iUWECAUeztzguXNx_4CO_JHPOIuZ4IfKFcn0NVurIR0Frj-Kda41R/s1600-h/amaxcompany1.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306210036880978290" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9m6yWEKi_IIJXoEEbcAfL-7ncJ-ZpGq6IjsqWe3GGYT9rl5m4fEjM42ytd_6foeP3xnWSKoH_cWCpXd2j82VCEl_iUWECAUeztzguXNx_4CO_JHPOIuZ4IfKFcn0NVurIR0Frj-Kda41R/s800/amaxcompany1.jpg" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" /></a> This room is on the first floor to the right of the stair well.

I also visited Mrs. Howard, a gorgeous store in its own right, but for me Max & Co was the real show stealer. As you probably have read on other blogs, the stores now have their own blog so we can all virtually visit what's new and changing - <a href="http://www.mrshowardpersonalshopper.com/">Mrs. Howard Personal Shopper</a>. Looking forward to going back in May!<br /><br />Part 2 of my Atlanta posts will be on the incredible <a href="http://www.interiorsmarket.com/">Interiors Market</a> - my camera behaved much better there and I have a ton of pics to post.
