~ Simplicity ~




I must apologize for tonights blog, I am a wee bit tired and out of words. I must have a post each night so I took a photo of a lovely Madonna type statue that I purchased last weekend. I thought the mother cup was also appropriate for the grouping. You cannot see where the paint is chipping on her and that is the part I like best. Also, I have just gotten some new french type decorating books so I took a few pics of the pics. I think I may have found the inspiration for my bathroom. I love the black speckled mirror-still have yet to figure out a way to achieve the look. I have waited a long time for someone to fill me in on the secret to making a new mirror look old, but I am toooo lazy to get into the muratic acid or metal strippers that most books say is the only way get the old appearance. Maybe one of my blogger sisters knows a better way?

  1. Hello, I just popped by to tell you that since I discovered your blog, a few weeks ago, I enjoyed reading it! Thanks! Unfortunately I cannot help you with the mirror, but even without that would you mind if I link you?
    Thanks again for inspiration, have a nice day!

  2. I love the Madonna and the cup. They're perfect together. The second picture is so pretty too. Love the mirror. I saw another picture somewhere with that same sink and was considering it down the line when we redo our half-bath.
