My Mama taught me all one would ever need to know about cleaning/keeping/saving$. Here are a few essentials I've learned myself: 1)"Company's coming" is good motivation to clean house, and quickly, so invite people over often & enjoy. 2)No, you do not need that kitchen gadget, and too much stuff weighs you down & requires more care than you'll care to give. 3)Kitchen+girlfriends+cooking+music+wine. Life doesn't get much better than that. 4)Girlfriends+music+housecleaning Together. That's not a stinkin' chore, that's fun w longterm rewards. 5)There's a lot to be said for renting.

LOVELY & so artful - lots for baby to look at & engage with.
Crib lovely - probably used for first few weeks for newborn not yet mobile? Such loving attention in this well made room, inspiring & engaging for baby, and for we viewers, thanks. (I really don't think such attentive parents would leave a daughter alone for a moment to choke, gnaw on paint, or jump out a window - but that's beside the point)

I'd like to ask the designers/parents: how do you most easily clean these wood shutters (love them, have them, hate to clean them) ? And, where'd you get the great lighted dacshie?

What I really LOVE here: the SIGNS! Recalls Barbara Kruger's famous conceptual verbiage art (one of my favorites) and pushes that idea to something TOTALLY DEMOCRATIC and personal. The "concepts" here are so loving somehow – a reflection, I expect, of Shauna & Stephens talents & hearts. Beautiful.
