His Name is Buick

This is my love....


and his name is Buick~

Buick

is the name the pet shop gave him~

Noel decided not to change it.

Each kitten in the litter

was named after a car....

Buick had two sisters,

one named Mercedes

&

one named Lexus~

His brother was Ford~

Buick

loves to be a part of

anything new that comes in

the house.

He especially was fond of this

vintage zebra prop

made of wood

&

covered in dyed zebra print~

He was sad when it sold...

I love my little boy!

Where is Home?

When I first met my husband,

he told me Home to him

is where ever I am.

Nothing has ever meant

more to me....

I knew then, how much

he loved me.

He never even had to say

"I love you"~

I believe
Home holds our souls.

Home is where beauty, comfort

&

function all unite as one....

I believe Home is

where our hearts sing....

and sometimes this may

be somewhere far far away...

or

with someone very very special~

Where do you think

Home is?

Contrast

There is something about

the balance of contrast

that I have always

loved~

Black & White

is my constant favorite.

Even if it is white on white

placed on black...

Or if it is still another

amazing image

Corey took for her

guessing game over at

Tongue in Cheek~

I adore,

this vintage Chanel wedding

window display

in Paris~

I found

the contrast of old & new

is in this photo I took

of a Dior window in Paris...

An old broken

beaded chandelier

not hanging leans next to the

new white dress forms~

This favorite statue of mine

is

the contast of a rough old white

stone texture that was once smooth~

This is my collection

of white glazed
Astier de Villatte
pottery placed in an
old dark Welsh Cupboard

that was given to me from

my Mom~

Have a very special week
my most beautifuls~

Good-Bye Summer

I am saying

Good-Bye

to

Summer

this weekend~

I love the changing of seasons...

Good-Bye long lazy golden

days...

Hello Autumn!

I welcome you with open arms

in brisk morning air~

Do you realize

our lives are like seasons,

forever changing...

as we walk through the chapters

of life?

Doors closing, doors opening

as time goes by....

Have the BEST last

weekend of Summer

EVER my darling ones!!
