Hi Susie,
Thanks for coming to visit and dropping a note. I tried to contact as you suggested, but I'm still a little confused about all this blog stuff. Let me know of a different way to contact you. I thought your lamp shade was black and I love black. Anyway, I would love to hear from you. I've been involved in a parenting conference and just getting back to you, sorry! Gail

Those spaces are just wonderful. Ever since I stayed home I have been going through and decluttering. Those rooms are ideal. Such serene spots to spend time in.
Can't wait to see what you decide to do.

Change is always so refreshing. I'm doing it on a smaller scale and getting a new hairdo! A whole home makeover will be fun to watch you do!

Love that toile shade! Yes, we need some major decluttering going on here, too. My fringe is growing like kudzu and has spread from my craft table to my dining table! I guess that's technically not clutter, but right now it sure feels like it!

2009-04-23T08:22:00.000-05:00

You are a brave woman. My hubby may pack his bags and never come back if I completely overhauled. I get that urge more than I would like to admit!

2009-04-23T07:23:00.000-05:00

I can't wait to see what you do. I did this last fall and it felt wonderful. Then slowly I began to "add" again. I couldn't seem to leave things as they were. I am less cluttery than I used to be but just couldn't keep it as minimal as I planned. Show us before and after photos when you finish. I will be waiting for inspiration. Pam

2009-04-23T00:25:00.000-05:00

That's awesome!! I'm also in the middle of stripping down. I have some major changes ahead of me, and it's time to simplify.

LOVE that kitchen!! I think I'm going to file that away too.

me too! i love the calm look!

oh my goodness! i wish i lived nearby! that garage sale with your stuff would be a dream to me. i understand your journey for zen-i am too much of a pack rat still! oh and a toile lamp shade! i could die!

2009-04-22T16:05:00.000-05:00

I, too, have done this. Actually, when I realized that I was buying things that just ended up in the next garage sale, I knew I had to stop. I have pared down many accessories and continue to look for simple things everywhere I look. I have long been a fan of Danish design and maybe my home will look similar one day.

I'm proud of a decorating diva that knows when enough is too much. :) It will be fun to see your transformation.

2009-04-22T14:46:00.000-05:00

Oh I wish I lived by you! I would buy that coffee/tea pot that is white with the red lid and handle. It would go perfect in my kitchen!

I bet you are going to have the best garage sale!

2009-04-22T14:21:00.000-05:00

Yep! Simplicity is amazing. I am far from the simplicity in those pictures, but yearn for the open, clean, airy look. Victoria and I are having a yard sale soon, and some of my clutter is going too. Look forward to seeing your journey.

Good luck - what an exciting task you're beginning...

2009-04-22T14:15:00.000-05:00

Good luck - what an exciting task you're beginning!

I need that box full of old kitchen gadgets and the red/white kettle you posted! That's my farmhouse/prim style!

Sounds fun! I can't wait to see what you do with the place. I hope your visit to the dentist was easy and quick!

2009-04-22T13:45:00.000-05:00

I love the cool colors - but will always have lots of extra "fluff" as you call it. I have far too many things that were collections of my Mother/Grand Mother etc., that bring back too many good memories to get rid of them for the sake of a clean counter top...so alas - all those pretty magazine photos will, at least in my home have to stay in the magazine!

Can't wait to see your finished product. Have fun!

2009-04-22T12:47:00.000-05:00

Oh, how fun!! I love going through and having a "take-down" every now and then although yours sounds much more advanced. :) I can't wait to see some before and afters!!

2009-04-22T12:36:00.000-05:00

I love the idea of simplicity. It's good to have peaceful, calm places to live. Good luck taking down :)

2009-04-22T11:49:00.000-05:00

How much do you want for the black and white toile lamp shade? I love it!!! Does your sister live in Birmingham? I would love to come to your yard sale and buy your stuff! Everything you have is soooo cute!!!

I am so looking forward to the transformaiton!

susie; thanks for visiting my blog and for your sweet comments about our jewelry. yes, i started having trouble with my computer. i clean it with ad-aware and norton EVERY day now. i also started turning my computer off. i used to never do that. anyway, i will still notice a few quirks when i try to go onto some pages and i exit immediately. there are still some issues as my oldest cannont sync his iphone to his itunes which happens to be on my computer. we know a high school computer genius that i am about to send my computer to. i am hoping he can clean it up even more...will keep you posted on that one:) the anti-virus filter is good to have but it will cause its own problems. sometimes i am not sure which is worse...the cause or the cure! xo, mickey

2009-04-22T09:25:00.000-05:00

Good for you! I love Swedish style, too. I can't do all the white furniture with three dogs and two cats, I can definitely live without the clutter. It starts to make me nervous when I have "stuff" on every surface.
