Your home, as it's featured in the book, is absolutely wonderful! It just proves how individual beautiful things can really come together and make a house truly a home. I especially like the striped fabric on the desk chair and on one of the chairs in your sitting room. One detail I did notice though that had me gasp -- the hangers in your closet! ;-) I'm much too anal, aren't I. I have to have all my hangers the same and in wood! Nevertheless, your home, along with some of the others featured in the book are an inspiration ... one travel, one piece at a time for me. -GraceA Life Unhurriedhttp://www.clayandgrace.com/glognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6117194181116669144.post-32357795209706922432011-03-25T17:48:53.487-07:002011-03-25T17:48:53.487-07:00So exciting!

I remember some time ago I exchanged an email with a blogger telling her about your fabulous foyer, saying it looked liked one from a movie set! It's on my saved images and I love it each and everytime it pops up on the screen! <br />xo,<br />~RAcanthus and Acornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08603547994268012876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6117194181116669144.post-69511928444567939942011-03-25T09:00:13.554-07:002011-03-25T09:00:13.554-07:00I bought this book last night via Amazon.
