All the Pretty Houses



It is not my intention to keep busy women on the web too long, but I found a website maker called "Cottage Collections," and followed up on on their home page creations. It reminded me of my daughter's intense interest in house-drawings and floor plans, when she was growing up. She had a pad of graph paper and never tired of sketching houses and their inside layouts. If you don't have time to go into the entire websites here, at least look at the pretty drawings of the little cottages, and some of the other sketches. On some of the sites, after you click on the house, it takes you to a colorful living room, as well.

I like the squeaky door on "The Old Painted Cottage."

Thank you so much, Lady Lydia! I had no idea any of these kind of sites were even out there. My dh would never let me decorate the house in pink roses, but a lot of the ideas are just lovely and the fabric store (that I found through a link) will be a source of inspiration for my and my dd's wardrobe.

Hi Lady Lydia. I wanted to say thank you for your lovely comment on my blog :)

I have been reading here for a while, but have been very quiet about it all! I love the things you talk about and agree with you wholeheartedly on your opinions.
