Wow...love those Midwest colors already...Lovely. What a great photographer you are. Thanks for visiting my blog and the cabinet came in that original color of green. Did nothing to it but wipe it down and take the fabric off the back. I read some more of your posts and I LOVE the buffet piece you and hubby redid. And MY man is a U of M football fan. didn't go there, but grew up in Michigan. He has just taken a new job in Iowa and been there a month now...sigh..really missing him and wondering when we will all be together...but he seems overjoyed to be in his old stomping grounds again (almost) That must be an interesting story about your man not being able to watch a game. lol...If he gets like mine if they are making LOTS of mistakes, specially if it is against the dang Buckeyes...OH my.... Thanks for visiting. :-)
I am mama of two, a nonna of two and a wife to my adorable hubby. I am also a budding photographer who sees life through the lens of a camera. I am constantly on the lookout for a new photoshoot site and love taking natural light photos for my sweet families.... I have recently started repainting thrift store and discarded furniture and bringing it back to life.
