While I’m at it ~ Welcome to our home. 

I love sneak peeks of homes, don’t you? Honestly one of my favorite parts of the blogging world, the chance to glimpse into people’s, especially creative people’s inspiring homes.

Last summer, I opened my home to Indie Fixx readers, Where Women Create featured my studio in their magazine, but I’ve never posted all the photos together here on my own blog. One of my earlier  plans was to post a room, a corner at a time but as is often the case on these kinds of blogging commitments it fell by the wayside. So, enough is enough, before I move again or re-decorate everything...a mini tour of our cottage in the middle of the city.

Today I must admit that I also have an ulterior motive and that is that we are wanting to sublet our home for the month of April into early May. If you are interested in getting more details you can email me.
