Home Sweet Home #54

Hello and Welcome to Home Sweet Home!  I found this vintage pair of baby shoes at the thrift store a few weeks ago and I knew I would like to try making a vignette with them.  My idea was to copycat Rene from Miss Gracie's House.

I reminisce every time I visit Rene at her blog because of her house and style.  It takes me back to a farmhouse I grew up playing in.  This is me around by the back porch.  This was a gracious Victorian farmhouse  that was my playhouse!  Yes, it sat right beside our home and we used this house for storage and I played in it.  It wasn't restored like Rene's though, it was torn down, but it made a great playhouse! 

Anyway, Rene has a style that is all her own.  It is vintage farmhouse, shabby chic, and Victorian all mingled together.  I love to see the vignettes she comes up with and today I thought I would give a go at copying her style.

Thanks for indulging me in this trip down memory lane.  It is funny all the things that go together to create a style to someone's work.  I found these little baby shoes for only a $1. 

Now, I would like to feature some posts that got my attention from last week's Home Sweet Home!  
 Kathy at A Delightsome Life  created some adorable guest bags for her bedroom out of a child's dress.

Debbie at Confessions of a Plate Addict created this cute vignette with some French ticking and toile hearts.

 Becca at From Gardners 2 Bergers had a tutorial on how to recreate these framed maps as art.  Her post includes several printable maps to use also!


A Toile Tale  showed off her gorgeous master bathroom makeover with imported French cupboards.
Thank you to all who join me at Home Sweet Home!   It is wonderful to have you here!
