    I think it's the soothing colors that draw me in. I'm repainting my kitchen this week and taking inspiration from your lovely home with it's muted color scheme.

    Hi Chrissy,

    I have missed visiting you. As usual, your vignette's are always inspiring. I am telling you, a book is somewhere inside you.
