That coffee table is really fun!
I want a whole house tour! Everything you showed is gorgeous! I LOVE your red chaise lounge! I can't believe your grandpa made it! That's awesome!
I love that chaise lounge! How cool is that that your great grandpa made it! Makes is SO much cooler.
We moved over the summer so most of our stuff is still packed away. This inspires me to get with it, and put it all out again!
Lovely inspiration!
My favorite things at home are the little orange chain lights that are hanging over my bed. They make the room feel cozy and inviting, especially through the winter.
great photos! love that red couch

These are all so lovely! I am a teensy bit jealous of your chaise lounge too. =]
I miss the Chaise. Grandma Ivy told Grandpa Lyman, since she was barely five feet tall about the weight of a hummingbird feather, that she wanted a "fainting couch" with a low, sloping arm and two nice pillows so that in the afternoons after working hard, and fight her asthma all day, she could rest and take a nap. So my dad (your grandpa Ted) helped Grandpa Lyman make it. Orignally it was brown herculon (I think). The red velvet happened in the 70's and Grandpa Lyman cussed that he had to reupholster it, and decided to put on the every indestructable red velvet. And I think he was right. I don't think that fabric will EVER wear out.
But I'm so glad you have it, Liz. It was one of my treasures, and even though I miss it, I'm so happy it has a safe, good home with you.
You and your mom are a lot alike. Sometimes it was a adventure to find the latest location of a fork. Tell Bran he can cry on my shoulder, and I'll nod knowingly how complicated his living space is. LOL
Love you. You remind me how important it is to be creative. Thank you, beloved Lizzy for all the joy you bring to me. Smooches and hugs.
