DECORATING ~ ***A Love Affair with Shelves***

(warning...lotsa pictures)

Decorating was a small burning Passion of mine
as a new bride in a new home in 1986.
  But it really took a hold when

19 years ago, hubby and I moved to Michigan and
 purchased our Lovely Colonial *dream* home. 

It was bigger

than I had ever hoped a home I lived in would be.

We had plans of filling it up with children, but

the Lord had other plans.
Through the years my home has morphed
and seen many styles and changes but
I do believe now it is a true reflection of
who I am and who I am becoming.
Does it all go...well probably not like those
who are true decorators would tell you how
to decorate.  I decorate with WHAT I love
and that is what make me happy.

I  loved sharing my home with others and

hope that you will feel right at home too
as I show you my *Shelf  Love*.

It all began a few weeks ago...

As I was wandering around my home I

began to see a pattern of decor...

Shelves. 

Everywhere, every shape and every size.

Being a Visual personal who LOVES

eye candy, I guess it is only natural that

I have leaned towards putting things

out where I can see them...lots and lotsa things. 

Some who visit my home think I have

too much clutter...but to me, I like to think I

have a collection of

*Organized Pretties*.
