I'm loving all shades of grey at the moment. It has been popping up everywhere lately, from accents in my bathroom to my new favoite shirt. There is a shade of grey to go with anything. I love the combination of grey with other neutrals. Better yet, grey with a bright pop of color!

my favorite picture in my home is one of my grandpa taken in 1939. i was recently back home in illinois, helping my grandma (who is 91) clean out her basement. we were going through some old family photos when i spotted this picture. it is a black and white picture, but it had been colored by hand when it was developed. my grandpa is in the middle of the frame, walking away from an old farmhouse. his hand is near his mouth working a toothpick. he is looking directly at the camera. behind him is farmland and an old red barn. i asked my grandma who took the picture. she laughed. grandma said that she had taken the picture, and it was probably the only picture she has ever taken in her life. this picture is my favorite because it reminds me of my roots...where i grew up, my family, and unknown artistic talent.
