Its been a terribly, terribly long time since I penned anything down, well, not technically, I did have a couple o' "I don't care who reads this, I'm gonna say forbidden things" moments that safely got stowed away as drafts......
And since filling in on the gaps seems painfully tedious at this hour when I'm surprisingly chirpy in temperament, I'm going to tell you about this other blog I meandered into....
http://frenchbydesign.blogspot.com
About which I have three words to say " Oh! so refreshing!". Despite all of that training I received to make things look beautiful, I still harbor a deep fear of making myriad different things work well together beautifully. My right brain isn't yet all that at ease with stretching its limbs beyond clean lines..... and for that very reason I heart the eclecticism this blog so effortlessly features ........
All the more so, since I've been attempting to make my family room more.....er.. "familial" shall we say, .... by covering up in crisp linen (since I'm going for the summer chic feel n all), the ugly, taupe micro fiber monstrosity that has turned itself and endearingly so, into the one thing that shall silently endure anything that is spewed upon it, right from gray sooty foot prints, to blotches of apparently washable paint, to smidgens of pro-biotic yogurt........ and also, am FINALLY trying to put together a frame collage of art that I now have manned up to try my hand at.....thanks to a friend that inspired me with her version of it and a good one, I must say.
The results shall be posted for your viewing, if it all turns out well, that is......
So long, until then ........
