Ashlae, you look great (don't be "critter-sizing" yourself, as a friend says) and the kitchen looks charming and well-loved and well-cooked-in! thanks for sharing!

Stella, I totally understand.
I am feeling discouraged about HOW disorganized I am, mostly because I can't seem to "shed the extra stuff". I am OVERWHELMED. Like what Stella said, I get caught in a "useful/wasteful" thought pattern - I mean, it just seems ecologically crummy to toss stuff willy-nilly. BUT - it can be such a drain of mental energy! Stella, I am sending you "permission" to let go of those things that drag your energy and mood down...

I've worked at several art venues that have carpeted walls. If you have a local art department around, it could be a great excuse to collect drawings, which will pin up easy as pie with dressmaker's pins. Or you could go to a discount store and get a pile of curtains and hand those either with pins or simple rods on the walls. Depending on the fabric, it could look very luxe. Some bamboo area "rugs" might be nice on the floor to further break up the texture. Good luck!

How lovely and elegant! It would look stunning with my purple velvet headboard!

This is the couch OF MY DREAMS...
