    What are you doing up at 3.15 am? You know what, I can't cope with that peeling stuff because I always want to clean and smooth it. But It looks pretty nice here. And I love that almost nudie patriotic lady. ! Have a nice week. xoxoxo Jane

    Dearest Jacki ~

    What a lovely feast for the eyes here at you HOME...such a pleasure to catch up and fill my mind with such prettiness! You always find the best of the best!

    As you know, we returned from Laguna a few days ago, and it was an incredible trip! Perfect weather and divine beach all while McDreamy indulged in his artist workshop. Now, we are heading to the wine country (for work), but we will definitely throw in a little fun too!

    No doubt you are enjoying the changing of the seasons...believe it or not, I'm already thinking of the holidays! Yikes, this scares me!

    Bisous,
    Melissa

    What lovely romantic softness, looking straight out of 'I Capture the Castle', where I can imagine you wafting around ever so slightly eccentrically with a Top Hat and a polished silver plater of the Finest Macaroons.

    Dear Jacqueline, I love these 'shabby' images. Country house shabby chic could well describe both my house and my apartment although I sometimes find it problematic to know where the shabby finishes and the chic begins. I love the peeling plaster that I see elsewhere but I somehow cannot live with it, and the decorator has to be summoned at the slightest crack in the paintwork.

    Jackie, I love the shades of shabby on display here. After all, too much perfection makes Johnny a dull boy, right? Nice to have some rough edges in one's life.

    Gorgeous images Jackie!
    Thanks for the comment ... good to be back...

    Before I forget, I saw your wonderful summer holiday photos... we also went to Cinque Terre this summer (stayed in Monterosso for 12 days at Villa Montale, which was once owed by the famous and noble prize winning poet, Eugenio Montale) ... then spent 4 days in Florence.
    I think you also did the Amalfi coast the previous summer, like us!
    I wonder if we choose the same destination next year ... lets wait and see...

    Many hugs and kisses

Beautiful images in my favorite whites and grays. I noticed a theme of distressed finishes amongst them. Hope that's not a sign that you're feeling distressed too!
