Romantic Inspiration…
Recently, I have been spending a lot of time looking through photos from the past couple of years…with new eyes. I often don’t look through these, since many were taken with our older camera {that I often complained about} or before I got the groove of the new one. With a fresh set of eyes…and a vintage touch of editing…they have been given a new life…
I thought I would share some random romantic inspiration found in these here with you…
Our bedroom…
Madai’s glittered banner draped on the first birthday gift given to me by my beloved…
The tiara I wore on our wedding day…
Old postcards are often found scattered about our home…
My favorite pale pink roses…I have received these{and purchased them for myself} many times…
and who doesn’t love white roses?
My grandparent’s dining room chandelier, handed down to me, illuminates and adorns our kitchen…
A favorite set of charming antique canisters…
Chambord liqueur bottles in the dining room…
My favorite teacups…with a lovely token from Dawn…
more vintage beauty from Dawn…
I hope you enjoyed these bits of random romance, as much as enjoyed sharing them with you…
Till next time…

Alice, I loved your photos! I really think you should publish a book, you have so many wonderful pictures and I know I would buy it!!! I know it would be a huge hit!!! Your eye through any camera is so special, you capture the essence of how we all want to live!
I know you inspire me so much every time I visit here I want to do more with my home and the way I make things! You have that special something that makes me feel glad to be alive. Does that sound corny? It’s not! I really love your work!
Hugs,

The photos are beautiful and give me the inspiration to get up and move things around (yes, once again). I keep forgetting how much I love those Chambord bottles and think I shall have to invest in some for my home, I know I’ve commented about them before, but they’re darling the way you’ve used them. The chandelier is beautiful and so precious that you’re able to enjoy it in your home now ~ perfect!

Those roses are the palest of pinks. As though an artist took one sweep of the brush across their petals.
