Several houses were selected BUT lo! & behold! we weren't the highest bidder... so we started our marriage blending Renaissance (dark colors, statues, leather couches) with my Beachy-Cottage styles... & downsizing to a two bedroom condo... It's been a blast creating a new haven for US! & yes! things are still falling apart - but it gives us a chance to "change" our living space - reflecting our current state of "decorating whimsy"... <br /><br />Enjoy your home as much as I am enjoying your blog.Christine E-Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04306387763796639856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1036604881691748652.post-5014290468287929082010-08-13T20:09:46.492-05:002010-08-13T20:09:46.492-05:00welcome to the joys of home ownership... i promise...welcome to the joys of home ownership... i promise these incidents will pass. <br /><br />enjoy your weekendNancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00788684035894123675noreply@blogger.com
