My computer can't handle flash at all, so I didn't even get to the experience that everyone is commenting on. Any chance that live streams like this could come along with the interview written out, or at least a summary of what was talked about? I'm missing out on something I'm interested in!

Sleek and lovely. Food, of course, looks great in a bowl. But so do collections of almost anything. Versatile and beautiful.

Great post with really interesting comments!

I'm a fan of Karen Kingston's book and definitely learned a lot about myself and the stuff I choose to keep.

(Books are high on my lists of stuff, I could stock a small library.)

I realize I'm continually evolving and am not necessarily the same person I was when I first got some of my stuff. I love being able to keep the memories and not always having to keep the stuff. And besides, I want room for new stuff.

But wait, a lot of my New stuff is really vintage stuff, other people's Old stuff!

All that being said, check out the book;

A Perfect Mess: The Hidden Benefits of Disorder.

An excellent read and an open doorway to just letting yourself relax into your own style.

An affinity for all things natural (leaves on the wall, nature collections in jars), along with whimsy (framed victims of the family dog), with a double dose heaping of comfort, cozy and creativity. I would move in in a heartbeat!

Extraordinary. Quirky. Vibrant. !!!

Appreciate the details. Love the Dream Sources "if we were living here long term" part where you talk about all the other fun stuff that would be cool to do to the place. The projector idea showing all movies, yes! I'm about to move from owning a home into a rental and this post was very inspiring, thanks!

Will the cat go with you when you go, or is he a house cat?

Beautifully done. Work tables on wheels so you can reconfigure the layout any ol' time, great! I'd love that for my stained glass studio. Building a big window often asks for a different work table layout than a smaller one. Love the paper roll installed at the end of one of the tables. Any close ups on how you did that? Congratulations on building your dream and being so involved in the doing of it. Very inspiring.
