I come away with a feeling of doom.
A feeling of needing to grow up.
To live more like an adult.
My friends homes are polished.
Minimal clutter, non-existing bric-a-brac.
Grown up.
Monotone.
Monochromatic.
Midcentury.
Traditional.
Honestly, none of these words
describe how we live or our
design style.
Cottage.
Bohemian.
Eclectic.
Bright.
Tchotchkes.

This is the dialogue thread that has
defined my life. What I am and what
I wished I could have been.
In the end, my authentic self has won.
It is clear in the books and magazines where
I spend a significant amount of cash and time.
The inspiration scrapbooks I create.
In the orange cane I carry.
In the places we visit.
Simply, I must accept the portrait of my heart
illustrated in the way we adorn our cottage.
To answer the call from within.
