Man oh man, do I ever love you. We must’ve actually morphed in third grade to have the same genes. What a spot-on description of yourself, and of things for which I also harbor an obsession.
This site is certainly a gift to your loved ones, and what I shared with Carole Baumgart as her 60th birthday gift today. I love you. (I’ll say it twice.)
xo, ‘B.
I’m so hapy to have found your blog! So nice to see another local mom with similar passions. I love it! I’m totally adding you to my blog reader. Keep up the great work!
Hi Helen, just found your blog and seriously looking forward to salking every post…..We LOVE plumbing pipe in our house, and if someone breaks in and takes your vintage bar (It was me) ..also ready to find a few new fav blogs from your blogroll….
All my best

James,so glad you stopped by! I also love checking out other blogrolls to find even more inspiration. Glad you liked what you saw!
Hi Helen–Fun to find you (and in turn, Gillian who left a comment here!) while searching for something about Nate Berkus. Looks like you might live on the North Shore. We run a design blog out of Evanston: http://www.twoinspiredesign.com. best, tessa
Tessa, I’m glad to “meet” you and looking forward to catching up on your blog. We love living on the North Shore (Evanston) and I’m always glad to find a local blogger. Let’s keep in touch!
Just read your post about the oilcloth mat. Simply wanted to mention the glue in the duct tape will interact with the finish on the oilcloth. Eventually, say a few months, the glue will cause the oilcloth to discolor. It’s not recommended to use most glues or tapes with oilcloth.

Thanks for the info! Maybe I really should take the extra time and trim it with fabric:)
Hi! I was just wondering if you are still posting on your blog. I stumbled upon your blog and have been eagerly waiting for updates and on your home. Your home reminds me of mine, I love your home!
