All These Places in our Space...s

All around me I find the stuff of imagination. I've feathered my own nest with items that intrigue and inspire and bring me comfort each day. Some days it's easy to overlook all the things that we've accomplished and focus our attentions more closely on foreign things. For lack of better words, to covet thy neighbors lamp...or couch, whatever the case may be.

So in honour of the beautiful house my husband and I have made for ourselves, I am proud to offer a glimpse into our eclectic-retro-rustic-shabby-chic palace. I hope you enjoy the tour.
