A cheerful Home !!

Thank you so much for all the emails and comments about my neck sprain. I am slowly getting back to normal. As you can see, I cannot keep away from My Dream Canvas:-) I have been meaning to bring you this delightful house tour for a while now, so here goes......

Samantha lives in a cottage in San Francisco. I love the colors throughout her home. It looks so warm and inviting.....don't you think? I asked Samantha to describe her home for my readers, and this is what she had to say......

"I'm a mama, and freelance photographer living in San Francisco. Our cottage is a mix of favorite objects and layers of patterns and colors, selected on the basis of what makes us happy, and then blended together."

I agree with Sam, Don't you think........that a house becomes a home, when we surround ourselves with the things we love??

Welcome to Sam's world.....


Love these gorgeous lanterns...

Dreaming of the beach.......


A lovely collection of sea rocks and sea urchins...



I love the use of just the initial several times instead of the full name.......




Thank you Sam for welcoming us into your lovely home.

    Absolutely beautiful! I love color! Even though I tend to choose a more neutral scheme, I adore the look of this cottage.

    Thanks for sharing and for visiting me via MBC.

    I'm loving the collection of sea rocks and sea urchins. I was always fascinated by them as a child (and still am!)
