I work at it every day though--forcing myself to toss out what is really not 100% sentimental or provide me happinessBungalow Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14042597433699965102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-210818371540491059.post-40753266820864697742010-02-23T14:58:46.463-06:002010-02-23T14:58:46.463-06:00I think thsi look is beautiful and peaceful, but I...I think thsi look is beautiful and peaceful, but I nowhere near disciplined enough to pull this off.

Plus hubby is not fully on board with it. So for now I'm just adding what I can, when I can and taking alot away until the rooms look light, bright and comfy to me.<br /><br />Thanks for the great link.

After a while I have to take things down as if I am being overwhelmed by everything (or memories from Mom's house).<br />I would love my house to look a bit like above but right now I feel like it looks like a daycare with the kids' toys and blankets. These are great sources for inspiration!Erika https://www.blogger.com/profile/02042799019418411409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-210818371540491059.post-17659488894288407052010-02-23T08:12:01.549-06:002010-02-23T08:12:01.549-06:00Hmmm...
