I'm so naive. But of course it still makes me feel like a loser with all my shit piled up on the coffee table 24/7. But I agree...you have to limit the design blogs because otherwise it's like overdosing on chocolate cupcakes.fridahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09794998041756832554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3543555066564238991.post-3650527126529836662009-05-16T16:11:00.000-07:002009-05-16T16:11:00.000-07:00Oh yeas, she was totally made up. it was for a Sh...Oh yeas, she was totally made up. it was for a Showtime event.

For Mother's Day, my husband gave me a consult session with an interior decorator. I'm a bit nervious, b/c I'm sure she's worked with clients who hand over their check books and say "Go to it." So, I appreciate your comments on picking out simple aspects of rooms that you like and trying to incorporate a similar look in your own home.JMWhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11850088300591079931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3543555066564238991.post-78700129391269584222009-05-13T05:50:00.000-07:002009-05-13T05:50:00.000-07:00Corine:Hoooow is she gorge in person?

I have definitely had moments when I've thought that I shouldn't write a blog, etc. since I'm not a professional, don't have a great big budget, but it is so good to appreciate both for what they are, because both are so good. And super high-end rooms are so great to be inspired by.

Finding out what makes the look is usually really inexpensive and there is always a way to substitute something and achieve the same end result. Super advice, especially since in this economy most of us are trying to do things on a non-existent budget. Thanks for sharing.
