More Pictures..........



~ As Promised More Pictures ~

Here are a few more pictures of my home.
These of course didn't make into the magazine
but I wanted to share them with you.
It's amazing how many pictures they do take
and can use only just a few of them.

The pictures were all taken by the talented
Mark Lohman



Front Porch

I love how Sunday made my front porch look!
I painted the bench a week before the photo shoot
in a pale pink color.
She brought things I had on my back porch
and used them here.



Piano

I love my piano.
I had been wanting one for a long time.
Some friends were moving and needed to get rid of it.
I told them if they were ever going to sell it to
"Please" let me know.
Well they just gave it to us
and delivered it which was a two hour drive.
It's nice to have Great friends!!!


Desk
I love this picture!
It's on page six of the Romantic Country magazine.
My cabinet is much fuller with clocks then in this picture.
I was just starting to collect them before the photo shoot.
The pink roses are from my garden.



Fireplace

Although this picture is in the magazine
the picture below is a completely different look.
I guess they liked the first one better.
I like them both!


Dining Room

Close-up


Well here is another picture that didn't make it.
It's another different look of my dining room.
I can't decide which one I like best
but I guess they liked the first one better.
Although I do like my pink chair there.
Close-Up
Bedroom
This picture shows more on my green dresser
which you can't see much of in the magazine.


This one is a different look again
which they didn't use.


This one shows more of the night stand
which was cut in half in the magazine.
I love this vintage table.




Back Porch

This is an old dresser that sits on by back porch.
I found it a few years ago in the trash.
My daughter and I were driving by
and I pulled over to take a look at it.
I loved it and put it in the back of my car.
It was so Heavy!
My daughter was so embarrassed.
A day later I found another dresser in the same trash.
I brought that home too!





Garden


I LOVE this photo!
My favorite place to be is in my garden.
I have over 50 PINK rose bushes.
I always have bouquets of roses in my home.


Well those were some of the photos.
I hope you like them all.
Please let me know what you think of them!
There will always be more pictures
I am forever changing and moving things around.
In fact I have some ideas of what I'll do next.............
