Yep, that's what I have been doing alot of lately...
largely because it is at this time of year I get itchy.....
You see, I have a confession to make...
my house is never "done"....
I wish I were different...
I wish I did not have decorating ADD...
I wish I was content...
I wish I did not feel this "itch" ....
to paint, wallpaper (yes! my powder room), to get some new pillows(gasp!)....
I have a file...
on my computer
that has pictures in it.
That file is simply titled "dream pics".
I thought I would share some with you today.
I got nothing else for you....I am home with a sick girlie and she has been NEEDY!
Are your sick kids like that?
Oh, but yesterday I had lunch with the fabulous Ki Nassauer of Junk Revolution/Flea Market Style fame! And girls, I got to see IT...you know what I am talking about....
Flea Market Style magazine!
I walked into Ki's office and there was the mock-up of the whole stinkin' magazine!
And you know how I (like most of you) am going through withdrawl after the disappearance of my favorite magazines.
So, when I saw that pretty little periodical sittin' there...I could not help myself. I asked very politely and oh so nonchalantly, "can I take a peak?"
And guess what?
She said yes!
All I can say is YOU.WILL.NOT.BE.DISAPPOINTED.
No you won't because it is lovely and pack full of beauty and inspiration!(much more than this random, rambling, lame post!)

You are one lucky duck to have Ki for a friend. I love all the pictures you shared. I wish I didn't have the itch either. It's annoying. And expensive.
ReplyDeleteD.
It is that dreaming time of year. Being stuck inside so much does the same thing to me. Oh, and Oh.My.Goodness. You lucky girl with the sneak peek (not to mention lunch with Ki!!)
ReplyDeleteOh, and yes my girls (and hubby) are needy when they're sick too. We're just getting over it right now. Ugh. I wish your little one good health.

ReplyDeletei too am never "satisfied" with my home for very long...i'm always wanting to update it or refresh. that's the fun of it, i guess. these photos are sooo wonderful.

You have a Beautiful HOME!
ever heard the song "burnin' down the house" ? I long for linens and whites and beiges and taupes and a husband who takes his boots off and doesn't try to feed the dogs on the furniture out of my antique china. I keep trying... sigh! Loved this post... come visit some time, Jennifer
ReplyDeleteBoy I'll say ~ one lucky duck is right having Ki for a friend!! That is really exciting....her magazine that is! Can't wait to see it, thanks for the heads up! Love your inspiration photos, I have 2 or 3 of the same ones in my dream pics file! And for the record, I am never finished either.....always want to change something....hoping that by the end of 2010 we might get done!
ReplyDeleteLove your blog!
Shellagh
Jill - I love the pics. I have 2 of those big notebooks full of dream pics. Do you know when the magazine is coming out? Thanks!
