More Chiang Mai Dragon Love & A Bit of Rambling

I just ordered a footstool in the aquamarine Chiang Mai Dragon fabric. 




I couldn't pass owning something in this colorway. Especially because it was on sale. This is my favorite fabric! I have two pillows in the alabaster colorway and they are my absolute favorite. 


I really should go on a shopping hiatus. I always loved reading about them in Two Ellie. I have promised myself in the past I will go on one, but if something's impossible this is one of them for me. I can be disciplined about a lot of things (like limiting my sweets), but not about my shopping. Maybe that can be my New Year's resolution - not shop for a month. I think I will give that some serious thought.

Recently, I was reminded of Kristen Bell's house by the lovely Betsy of Estate Eclectic. I remember last year looking at her fabulous house and falling in love with it. I had no idea at that point in my life what Chiang Mai Dragon was. I will admit I was clueless about a lot of things. I feel like I was living under a rock. Let me just say that I was very, very sleep-deprived with a baby that didn't sleep. If sleep isn't present in my life, I am not either. I swore back then I would never have any more kids, but honestly, if they were all as sweet as AJ, I would have 5 more. Thank goodness AJ is a sleeper now.

Anyway, enough of my rambling. 
I thought I would share with you some pictures of her house.

I love how she mixes traditional with modern in the dining room.

And her bed frame looks like my all-time favorite one which is from Crate & Barrel. 
Here is my other baby Colette. I have wanted her since I bought my first house.
But when hubby and I were shopping for a bed, 
I was less pushy assertive about my style.
We have decided when we return from Peru we are changing our 
queen bed for a king bed and guess which one we are getting.

Sorry about this long post! I guess I felt like rambling today. 
And I will post about the giveaway on Sunday.

Have wonderful day!
