And thanks to my sweet Jilly for sending me this precious little white bird that you see in front of the turquoise lantern. Isn't he adorable?
And if you're super-observant, you might have noticed in this extremely glamorous picture from this post that I'm holding the book I've been dying to get ... A Place in the Sun by Slim Aarons. It's every bit as fabulous as I'd imagined, and I've looked at every page about a billion times. It was a housewarming gift from my Aunt Becky, and I just love it!
Also, I'm wondering if anyone out there has any suggestions for removing a dust jacket that has been glued on. I bought this from the library for one dollar, and though the dust jacket is atrocious ...
... the hardcover underneath is adorable.
When I tried to peel it off, this happened:( Any ideas?
hi marygrace,
ReplyDeletei'd like to first apologize for not introducing myself a long time ago. i just got an email from eddie ross re our shopping trip and went back and read my post i did on it. i read the comments and just now noticed that you commented on the post. i'm so sorry that i didn't respond to your comment. i always try to right away. in my defense, i'm not very computer literate and i'm truly just now learning how to use blogger. anyway that is now out of the way. thank you for your comment!
now i just love your blog. i adore your house and new sofa and everything else in it. i love the way you style your pics. so fresh and young. love it. i especially love the pic of you on the sofa. it's perfect. magazine ready! i'm adding you to my blog list as i think you will connect with quite a few of my younger/hipper than me readers!
