Sometimes I stare at some of our blank, empty walls and get frustrated that I haven't put any artwork on them yet but I'm just waiting for the right art to include in our home. I like to think our home reflects me (or should I say us) although my husband has very different opinions on what he likes. It'll all come together at some point.

I do not follow trends. I like what I like. When I sold my home in NY two years ago and scaled down to just one home, I thought I wanted to keep my surroundings leaner. I sold or donated many things I had for years because I thought they would clutter up my Florida home. I often think about these items I once cherished and wonder why I ever did that. I guess my design philosophy will evermore be "more is more" and I am fine with that now.<br />Best...VictoriaVictoriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06791296934306530073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210558362945352459.post-52489297432914131502011-09-25T15:11:50.018-07:002011-09-25T15:11:50.018-07:00That is of course the reason why I started LiveLik...That is of course the reason why I started LiveLikeYou.
