While I could never claim it as my favorite, I’ve slowly warmed up to the idea of using soft pink as a backdrop for furniture and other colors.To be specific, the first two rooms shown here helped me get on board its strategic use.

I continue to be amazed by the variety of things you can buy on Amazon, but long ago, in the pages of the Sears Catalog, Amazon’s predecessor, you could even buy a house.

Last post before Christmas! That is pretty exciting. I joined an amazing group of bloggers for a Christmas Night tour. I think this is easily going to be my favorite tour yet. Have you ever been to a progressive dinner? Where you start appetizers at a neighbors house, drinks at the next and keep moving around to see all your neighbors homes and eat dinner in small bites along the way. End at dessert! Although there is no food on the tour...there are over 25 homes you can easily peep into. Easier than a Progressive Dinner. I hope you make it over to the blog today to see our home at night. And I just and I just want to say Merry Christmas to you! I honestly wish I could have you all over to our home to do this tour in person. Thank you for supporting my blog, what a gift you have given to me. xxxxx
