So here's the sitting room as of today--I think I'll still be "tweaking" it here and there, but I am please with the general lay-out of the furniture. I was going for an English Cottage in winter look, so added some darker elements..
Steve calls this the quirky corner--I have been seeing and admiring displays like this--kind of a free form assemblage--so I wanted to try my hand at it. I'll let it sit awhile and maybe get back to it to hoosh it up a bit...
Okay, so now the announcement!
About two weeks ago Gabreial Wyatt, editor of an online magazine called Vintage Indi Mag. had seen my blog and contacted me to do a feature/interview in her column "My Vintage Pad"! It just posted today, so go check it out! It was a fun experience and very flattering as I think there are SO many people out there who are WAY more talented than me..but ya work with what the Lord gives ya and have fun with it, right?!
Anyway--Vintage Indi is a great Magazine and has many features that are a delight to peruse thru...be sure you have a cup of tea with you!
Myrna, CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! Everything looks so beautiful. You always amaze me with your talent. Every room is filled with you. ALL looks so warm and inviting. Thanks for inviting me and sharing your wonderful news. Again Congrats. Love and Prayers, Suzanne
