Love the shelves, especially the green behind, and all the kiddie art. And hey, I have one of your McCoy pots, only in turquoise... the lattice number by the froggie!
Oh, I love it all. I wish we had a space like that. WE had one like yours in the house I grew up in. I remember having to dust it every week. I loved looking at it, but not the dusting. There were so many nicnacks, including some of my grandmother's collectibles, that it was really tiring and cumbersome. But I love the space you've created. It speaks of home.
What a great space - love all the shelves, storage and workspace and the natural artwork in the centre... the window.. love that! I think I have the same turqoise vase, but mine is purple...cool. Have a great weekend.
This will probably make you ill, but I, too, have that white quilt-y pot. But I accidentally left mine outside during a freeze, and it broke to pieces. Argh. I feel really bad I did that.
Awk...look at all that shelf/storage space! Excuse me while I wipe the drool off my chin.
