Who could resist seeing more pics of your home?? I always look forward to your posts 'cause there's a good chance I'll get another dreamy peek into your home. You should do a book of home pics! I'd buy it! :)

I'm with Ruth- Your book would sell like hotcakes!!

Just had an appraiser over here at the house as we are refinancing with a lower rate. He ended up being the one who appraised it when we bought it 1 and 1/2 years ago. It made me feel good as he kept commenting on the decorating!

THere is so much to do in this ol place I sometimes forget just how much we have done and how much better it looks than when we bought it!

Thanks so much for your sweet compliment about the pillows - but the talent really lies with the lady who made them all up for me. I just have the ideas -- she does the work! :)

Thanks girl!

I just love that crown, and the pillow is divine!

Michelle said...

Okay I've heard of baby's breath but not angel's breath! It's a beautiful plant but I'm afraid if I had one at my place it would be a death sentence. LOL. I'm terrible with plants. I couldn't do it to this sweet little thing. Oh, also, come on over and we can pig out together! My jeans are already tight! Have a great weekend, Chrissy!

Sue said...

I have to tell you something.. When I first saw a picture in a store of the girl thats on your pillow, I thought she looked like me when I was a young teenager! Seriously!! I see that girl alot in frames and its kinda spooky, I see myself! Have a great weekend darlin! xoxoxo

Oh that is so pretty Sea...when I saw the first pic I was gonna ask you what that plant was....it is so delicate looking. Hope you have had a great day girl and I appreciate you coming by but I have a question.....

pssst closer..Now Sea you know you can tell me anything right??? Now I have never questioned you about your past...I always thought you was just a sweet little "June Cleaver" in your Pearls and Heels...but I never knew you to use 'CODE WORDS' before!!!!!! I mean what is 'godsmacked'....was you in the CIA...was you an undercover agent in a foreign country..Are you one of those people that they had to hide and change your identity..cause I don't think you ought to be making slip ups like that girl..you gotta be more careful..don't worry ...your secret is safe with me! lol

Picket said...

Oops...sorry the word was 'gobsmacked'...geshhhh these code words are tough! lol lol

I grew up always have a tiny 'angels breath' plant in my bedroom. Thank you for reminding me...I need to go get one.

Barb said...

Hi Chrissy,

I have been reading through the posts I've missed. Just beautiful. Your photo's are stunning. You really should do a book.

I agree with Ruth, I'd buy it.

I love those plants too, I usually have quite a few on my porch in the summertime The one thing though after awhile mind don't last to long. I've also had some in my house, but boy they can get pretty messy!

Melissa Miller said...

I'm here Chrissy! Whew!

Our A/C unit upstairs is broken so I'm trying to stay away from the heat.
The office/computer room is so hot needless to say.
We get it fixed Monday morning when the part comes in. UGH! I can't wait.

Your beach walk was gorgeous and so peaceful looking. How nice to have that nearby. It's so pretty.

LOVE the heart shaped basket and your entire home.
It's so unique and a true inspiration to us all.

Thanks for entering my RED giveaway!
I always appreciate your kind visits my friend.

Have a blessed Sunday.
~Melissa ;)
