We are all curators at heart.

from the Serena & Lily catalog received in my mailbox today....

"We travel. We collect. We arrange. We rearrange.
We mix the old with the new; the bought with the found;
the passed-down with the picked-up-along-the-way.
We create these beautiful little galleries throughout our homes
that express our passions and curiosities to all who pass through.
And then, we start all over again."

These words could not be truer for how I feel about what I do in our home,
particularly at this time of year - the start of a new year.  I have been
fluffing and making plans......how about you?

  5. Hi, I'm your newest "follower". I saw your post on Isabella and Max and, being a Portland neighbor, just had to come over and visit. I like what I see so I'm adding your blog to my Google Reader.

  8. Like everyone else, my first response was, "SO TRUE!"

    I'm definitely dreaming up improvements to my home this year, i.e., finally paint the ugly brick fireplace (pink! Seriously. I know!), new carpet, all new interior paint scheme.....etc., etc.!
