(One of) My Favorite Things

Cindy at My Romantic Home is hosting a "favorite things" post. She asks that you post a picture of your favorite thing or things. Since I just returned from the beach and have been inspired with beachy, cottagy-type things lately, I thought it appropriate to lighten up my usual dining room vingette. So today the dining room centerpiece and vingette on the sideboard are my "favorite things"!






Also, this post happens to be Number 100 for me! When I started my blog in December 2007, I had no idea of the wonderful journey which I was about to find myself on. I have "met" so many wonderful folks....so many of you with my passion of decorating and fluffing and primping my home, but also the unbelievable goodness, kindness, compassion and "sisterhood" that is so willingly and unselfishly shared. To think that we all meet as strangers, and while the likelihood of many of us actually meeting in person is slim, I still feel a closeness to everyone of you who visit, make comments or just "lurk"! I appreciate each and every comment. And while I don't always respond please know how much it means to me that you would take the time out of your busy, hectic lives to "make my day."


Here's to the next 100+ posts!

  4. Congratulations on your 100th post and thanks for such enjoyable reading! I have visited your blog many times, but Cindy's idea has spurred me on to turn from "lurker" to participant. Your blog title lured me when I first began to "blog" early this spring. I love almost anything even remotely related to the South and have been pleasantly inspired by many of your posts!

    Your sideboard and table are striking and the "touch of the beach" is very inviting. I am trying harder to keep up with more frequent posts and still survive everyday household, business and family commitments and seeing someone with a history of 100 posts makes it seem more feasible. Thanks for great reading and "eye candy!"

  10. Absolutely beautiful dining room! The lighter colors look great contrasted with the black accents and other rich colors and finishes in the room. I sure hope you have at least one or 2 lovely meals in there while it looks this way! ;)

    Congratulations to you on this milestone in your blog!
