Happy Wednesday friends!
I came upon the most beautiful
Victorian home in San Francisco.......
I am loving so much about it!
like the settee for starters.....
love the upholstery with the 2 types of fabric....
and how cute is that little dress form in the entryway???
it's a lovely thought but I can already see one
in my home covered with 28 sweatshirts,
backpacks, bags, purses with a couple umbrellas
thrown on top!!
nevertheless ~ her's is quite beautiful ;)
cute dining room...adorable chairs....
all of them!
speaking of chairs....
my sweet hubby hung up all my chairs in our (well I
think he's thinking "his new mancave") garage...
he's waiting ever so patiently for me to get to them.....
{if you haven't a clue what I'm talking about
you can read about my chair fetish/extravaganza here}
so when it is time for me to tackle them they will
be waiting all nice like hanging on the wall....
where was I?
so many beautiful decorative details....love
all the frames & mirrors on the wall....
just a peek into her kitchen....
LOVE her son's room....
so many textures....
I really like the way she uses the vintage suitcases
for storage. perfect.
And of course, I'm loving the grainsack pillows.....
which leads me to something a bit
exciting for the
I have recently received this stack of
amazing
antique french grainsacks.....
which will very soon become
amazing
pillows & table runners for sale in
the shop!!!
I simply cannot get over how fabulous they are...
I can see now the great affection so many
decorators have for them!
Although I have always loved the look ~ I've just
never owned any for myself!
so these are on the agenda....
pure yumminess coming soon!!
and on another note.....
I was so fortunate to win 2 giveaways recently!!!!
wow!!!
this darling little pink toolkit
she is such a sweetheart & her blog is really
fun!!! Please stop in and say hi!
and I also won (can you believe it??) a Home Goods gift card
and if you haven't been by her site
please stop over & peek!!
crazy huh??
Thank you Cindy & Cierra!!
Well I'm off to my work ~ and the SUN is OUT!!!!!!!!!!!
hold the phone! seriously!
:)
Have a great day!

Beautiful Shellagh! Wow, I think her son's room is genious, does remind me of something Tracey over at French Larkspur would do. So creative! I am going to have to check out your shop, xoxo tami
what a beautiful home!! and the grain sacks are gorgeous!!! what is this sun you speak of?
That home is awesome...love it. Now how about those grain sacks...did you hit the lottery? LOL
There's nothing like the feel and lovliness of the old grain sacks.
So, I'm starting (slowly) to feel better, and at last I can do a few things around the house. I just get sooooo tired. I'll have my scan next week which will determine if all the cancer is gone. I have no doubt that it is!
Blessings,
Susie
Hi Shellagh! Love these images, and cannot wait to see what you do with all the yummy grainsacks! You know what they say "make hay while the sun shines"...so go for it!

Hello :) That Victorian home is simply gorgeous! Love it :) I've checked out your Etsy shoppe, and your pillowslips are just beautiful! I've been thinking of incorporating some of this look in my home, and am keeping my eye on a couple of them :) Congratulations on your giveaway wins; love that pink tool set.

Loved that issue of Country Living...all whites. I would love to paint my dining room table a creamy white, but just can't imagine it holds up very well. Maybe I'm just a coward?
I think this is the best issue CL has put out in a while! Refreshing to finally see some white! I love grain sacks, I have a large stack of them. Only one problem, I can't bear to cut them up! What is my problem? lol!

What a beautiful home. I love the contrast of the dark wood with the white walls in the dining room. Her son's room is perfect.
The stack of grain sacks looks like fun! I can't wait to see what you do with them. Don't forget to keep one for yourself :)
Hi Shellagh,
I am IN LOVE with that home!! It is gorgeous!!
I'm going to have to go out and pick up that magazine.
Love all of your grain sacks, just beautiful! I can't wait to see what you do with them.

I want to move into that house! LOVE LOVE
What a gorgeous house. Doesn't it make you want to pack your bags and move right in? Love it! Hugs- Diana
Some weeks ago I stumbled upon an etsy seller that made bedding VERY similar to the linens shown in the boys room in the Country Living issue you are featuring. I'm sorry I don't have the seller's name, but maybe someone could do search for it if they were interested.
Though I would share.
Enjoy your blog!

Loved that article in CL...and I have been dreaming of finding a cheap rundown house with such beautiful bones ever since! Can't wait to see what you do with the grainsacks!
Really enjoying all the lovely photos on your blog, am feeling quite inspired which is good as our downstairs room flooded from all the rain over the weekend so am going to have to redecorate!!
