Love it! We are doing our sons room with a large poster (embark on an ark) and I adore charley harpers work! My daughters have been thumbing through all the library books we got on him with so much interest and joy ;). Congrats and beautiful space!

I let my kids get scared, all I was saying was a caution to others, all kids are different. sheesh.

shawn the sheep- yes, it's cool looking and pretty funny too :)

We have a four year old, and honestly, I don't know if I'd let her watch The Secret of Kells yet- YES, it's absolutely gorgeous, but I remember some kind of scary fire scenes. Also, we tried watching Tintin, and we had to explain about smuggling, some language (if I remember right), and some other more "big kid" stuff- ended up turning it off. All Dogs go to Heaven we tried a few weeks ago, but it opens with dogs planning a MURDER. She was so creeped out she begged it to stop.

However, she LOVED Ponyo, and that had a tsunami which I thought would scare her ( go figure!)... so for great visuals Miyazaki films are usually a safe bet in our house :)

Man, this makes me sound like a crazy mom... just trying to say, remember your kid's sensitivities as well :)

wow, lots of negative comments....
she's a WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER. her demographic will be mostly women.
anyways, i think the office is inviting, feminine, light and airy, what people seem to want their photos, and wedding dress/ date to be... yes, the desk is tiny for two computers, but i could see her sitting with a client going through digital proofs, not working all day next to someone like that. the small table would be for interviews/ going over contracts/ final books, and the small credenza/ dresser could hold albums ready for pickup.

ok i'll defend the tv placement- they obviously like it there, it doesn't make them horrible people, sheesh. :) in our living room, there are two doors, two entry ways, the fireplace, and two windows in the living room, and no family room. there is honestly NOWHERE else to put the thing other than above the mantel, but it works for us, and keeps electronics way up high, away from wandering children's hands, and we could snake the cords through the wall into a closet making it seamless (have an infrared remote system). to each their own. i find it amazing what people gripe about.

guess I'm in the minority here. i love my bench (also have four chairs which migrate throughout the dining room and house for "flow" purposes). i wish i could get another bench for the other side of the table, but i've searched everywhere- solid wood, about ten plus years ago when pier one sold more substantial furniture. oh well.

make a cobbler- not as good as fresh, but still yummy :)

sorry, they are very cool (thinking of the miniatures at the Chicago Art Institute)..... but the main image just reminded me of the creepy creepy serial killer episodes on CSI a few years back.

the image of martha packing cracks me up. i think she has help :)

i just like that she has the slice of pie (?) sitting out, either to provide strength for cleaning, or as a reward for when she's done. smart :)
