Maison Sweet Maison.
In my Unexpected Guests post on the lovely home of Analisa Payne, she mentions Maison Reve as on of her very shops in Mill Valley. So, I made a visit to the shop over the weekend to check it out. I'd stopped into Maison Reve once before quickly, and was aware of their online shop, but Analisa couldn't have been more right - what a lovely shop! Their things are definitely of the French farmhouse style, and bit on the shabby chic side. But they carry a cool mix of textures and finishes, and I saw lots of accessories and furnishings I could scoop up and take home to mix with some of my more modern pieces. I couldn't stop snapping pix (oh, could that be my new camera's fault?), so here's a peek into beautiful Maison Reve. If you can't get to Mill Valley any time soon, be sure and check out their website for online shopping and some great inspiration.
UPDATE: As a way of saying thanks to all the readers, Yasmine from Maison Reve is offering everyone 10% off anything they buy at Maison Reve through July 4, 2008 if they just mention sfgirlbybay. Thanks so much Yasmine!!

I'm so glad you posted this! When I saw Maison Reve in Analisa's interview I had forgotten how much I love looking at their website! This place looks absolutely incredible. How far away is Mill Valley from the city?
Lovely items all around! I think I could spend all day there.
Okay, I guess I'm sold. So how much is the rent and is anyone else interested in being my roommate? Oh, and do we have to leave during business hours or will the public revolve around my sleep schedule? Oy vey...it's SO dreamy delicious!
leslie - mill valley is a quick trip across the golden gate bridge and takes about 15-20 minutes to get there from the city.
UB - maybe they'd let you hang out and serve lattes all afternoon. ;)
Well, just look at all those wonderful vintage finds - Glad to see that shabby french chic is still hot in the big city.
This is an amazing store! What a find! Love your blog!!
ooo what a deliciously perfect shop!! It reminds me of a little store here in Excelsior Minnesota called DB & Company. Loving the vintage chairs!! xo
I could spend an absolute fortune in that shop! I loved every item in every inch of those photos.
I'm off to check out their online store right now!
