The florist in me can't wait to drop some serious coin at the flower market on Wednesday (yay!) and the neurotic in me is having dreams about changing around the layout of the whole space. (Last night I dreamt I had moved my office into my breakfast nook. No joke.)
But above all of these worries and last-minute details rises the fact that I have a beautifully decorated home. Something that's all mine, that I created from scratch, that is totally me through and through. Made for nobody else but me. And that, my friends, is an amazing, blessed thing.
So while I may lose my mind in the next few days leading up to the shoot, I also know that I am one very lucky lucky girl to be surrounded by so many beautiful things. Never take that for granted - our homes are where we nurture our souls, our well being, our relationships. They are an extension of everything we are, and should reflect that in every detail. I only hope that when I share my home with you all (in just a few weeks!) you look at it and see me!
Have a wonderful weekend all!

ReplyDeleteLove the last photo of Katie Armour's coffee table. So beautiful! Hope it inspires you :)
ReplyDeleteI think any of us as designers go through these little dream-vs-reality moments. Fortunately, you only dreamed you swapped out the office & breakfast nook for one another. No joke, I've moved all of the furniture in my apartment in the middle of the night once. I don't know what came over me!
ReplyDeleteAnyhow, I'm sure you've got tonnes going through your head right now being the night before the big shoot. Get some rest and have a blast shooting tomorrow! Look forward to seeing the completed space!
