Shop Away

Victoria's been here the past few days... 

and I've drawn her into my decorating dilemma.

She's helped hold a picture or two... and confirmed that I should just hammer those nails into the plaster!

She's actually had an *opinion* unlike the guys, whose answers of "I don't know." do NOT help nor inspire me.

She's contemplated placement and height, colors and topics.

I love that.

She's helping me out by providing some great black and white photography of hers for my bedroom.

I'm already a proud owner of these in 8x10s... for which I am searching for frames and mats.  

Then this poster will join in.

Then with all this chocolate binding me to earth tones, I might have to insert turquoise just for flash

But this week will be internet shopping... and perhaps starting some priming on the *downstairs*!  Things are kind of cooking along here... more stuff is getting moved... photos will appear when I'm closer to completion!  

Right now, I'm taking all tips and pointers and links.

I love western decor... this is a ranch after all.

I want some greyish striped woven horse blankets.

I want some cool upholstery tacks for a project.

I want some large leather look lampshades.

I want some turquoise (sky blue NOT greenish) accent pieces.

I want one nice framed fossil to put in my bathroom.

I want help and opinions and cool websites and catalogs.

I want Inspiration!

Here ya go, folks... shop away and comment all the links you can find!

    Love what you are doing, especially the turquoise pitcher, do you really have it? A comment on yesterdays blog, about "Claiming Ground", I had to down load it to my iPhone. Have read most of the first chapter. She did what I always wanted to do. Especially a couple years ago the new library automation program crashed and I 7000+ records, I went to the office and said, "I'm out of here, I'm going to Wyoming to herd sheep." Somehow I didn't make it, wished I had.

    Carol, I have a friend who makes western design wall hangings with the canvas rug stuff and wool roving - like the saddle pad you're working on - then hangs them with carefully chosen branches from her yard.

    Will you have a wall exclusively set aside for pictures of Dally, Boomer, Lucas, and Elsa?

    Ok ok...I know it is pricey but I know someone who has one and theirs is gorgeous! I want one but it just doesn't go with MY decor - So I will live vicariously through you?

    Always nice to have a helper-decorator to shop and create the perfect look.

    Your doggie pictures are always so good - I hope you have a nice place for them. Do you ever have them on your computer desk top??
