Oh it feels good to be home again, we drove through a blizzard all day to get home from Minneapolis! The weather was too bad for me to sweet talk Rich into stopping at any roadside antique malls so I could browse while he waited outside with a book, or doing emails on his Blackberry.
I was thinking about him not recognizing his own home in the magazine (posted on April 8, Clueless but Cute), and I have decided that maybe it isn’t his fault. Here is a photo of my living room for an article I wrote for Paint Magic Oct 2005.
This photo was taken maybe a year later.
(Both photos taken by Bill Mathews and styled by Gloria Gale)
Well, maybe he is right to be confused?
Welcome back Karla!
That is so funny you posted this about your living room. I just redid my living room completely about 2 years ago and I was into this deep reds…french… shabby kindof style…WELL…I am sooo wanting to change it again! Completely…and get rid of the red (and I have a big RED couch)! Sigh..
Now if I could just have you there to help me redo it I would be so happy because I have such a hard time making decisions! You have great ideas!
That’s really your living room? Amazing! You have some great treasures. Love what I’m seeing and can’t wait to look around more.
Can’t wait to feature you!
Wow! Your home is amazing!! Simply gorgeous-just my style!

I’m happy to hear that you’ve arrived safely home. The weather is keeping everyone disconcerted this year. I’m hoping for a sweet springtime to arrive on your doorstep soon.
Your living room is beautiful in both photographs. It’s interesting to see the differences and helpful too.
STUNNING! Both of them…just stunning! SO BEAUTIFUL! Can I come over please? lol Seriously, they are just amazing girl!
Hey Karla…. I just did my drawing for my Spring giveaway. Come see who won!
Your home is delightful…the vintage print above your mantel is stunning!
omg, I am not exactly what your site is…but i think i have stumbled upon the most interesting site of all my websurfing time. I am a “junk-aholic” Well everyone I am surounded by thinks that I am from another planet due to the things i pick up from trash,crafty stores,antiques places, basically anywhere. You seem to have the same vision that i have. I love your taste in artful pieces. You have a beautiful sense of site!
