Hi Des: Happy Weekend. That is such a beautiful room, but the little box popped up (how do you get those on your blog anyway)about Christmas at your house featured in the magazine. I am speechless!!! I guess I came along after the fact because I have never seen those pictures. It is truly one of the most beautiful sights I have ever seen. I mean that seriously. I had no idea you lived in an old schoolhouse (a still big fantasy of mine) and the decorations are magnificent. I can't tell you enough how I enjoyed it. Hope you will show more this holiday season..Happy Friday..Judy
Too funny! I know it's still hot as blazes here too. Hard to believe that school is starting next week. Isn't it still summer?! Love that picture you showed.
What is with this wacky weather? I hate to say it but fall never looked so good! The 90' and 100's with major humidity is just brutal. Love white.....always have always will.
That type of seating arrangement always feels awkward and uncomfortable to me with everyone facing one another. Reminds me of wagons around a campfire. :-) Stay cool!

I just love white. Such a scaredy cat to make a plunge. I love the inspiration and as always your home is gorgeous.
A cold front- in the 90's!
I am still laughing!
Have you ever felt such heat?
