Where Was I...

Over the past few weeks--well, months--I’ve been completely consumed with getting this blog up and running. As some of you may have experienced, there is a bit of techno-knowledge that one must become familiar with. Once I began to understand how things worked, I was on to my next task--custom design. And then, of course, listing my blog on various search engines. To make a very long story short, I’m pooped! I’m ready for the fun stuff!! So, back to my original mission… I would like to share with you some of my recent inspirations that I’ve found in and around my home.

I’ve had this old Singer, hand-crank, sewing machine forever—well, since I was about nine years old. My father bought it for me. I thought it was the neatest thing ever. None of my friends had anything like it. And, I immediately felt this was my invitation to the world of fashion. It wasn’t easy, but Barbie got a whole new wardrobe that year! Now, I just display it in my home—I still think it’s beautiful.

I can’t remember where these paper flowers came from, but when I got them, I wrapped them around this wall sconce. Very sweet.

Hope you all have a nice and safe weekend. And, if you have some time away from work this holiday, look around your home to see if you can find things that you truly love. I'd love to hear about them. Thank you for visiting!

Always looking to network with someone else who designs books. Will you be blogging on he subject? In fact, do you freelance or are you employed at a publisher?

Anyhow, glad to have found another fellow traveller.

I love the work you've done on your page. The design on the sides of the page remind me of the wallpaper we had on our hall when I was a little girl. And, I really like all of your pictures. Very inspiring~~~ Your hard work made a wonderful spot for me to stop in ever now and then. Thank you for sharing!

Your blog is sooo relaxing. I keep getting on to see if you have anything new! Good thing I work for myself, or I would get fired! With you being so far away, this gives me a chance to keep intouch. What a great idea! Can't wait to see your Boutique.
