Carrera Marble?! Sure! Perfect! I love it! Oh wait… I have three kids under the age of 5. Grape juice, anyone? One of the biggest drawbacks with marble is the fact that it can stain because it’s very porous. OK, I’ll rethink this one. Sure, there are different types of marble that are easier to maintain or you just seal it. Simple. For some reason, I don’t think sealing it will really be that simple. I don’t want to worry about this. I’m already worried about the kids jumping up and down on the living room couch and knocking over a lamp… or ending up in the Emergency Room. I’m turning to white granite. The slab above is white granite and not marble. Part of me doesn’t want to choose granite because it is so popular but maybe there is a good reason. What do you think about substituting a material that you absolutely love for something that fits better in your lifestyle?
Welcome! Now Let’s Inspire Each Other
A great big hello to you! I am very excited to make this introduction and begin a wonderful relationship with readers who have similar interests as I do. For many years, 15 to be exact, I worked in New York City in the publishing industry. I always loved magazines, images and color… and still do.
Within the last 5 years, I have had a son and two daughters. Oh my, do I enjoy shopping for their clothes and dressing them up! I love everything that has anything to do with my children. They probably inspire me the most. I still daydream about interior design, gardens, fashion, books and travel. Whenever I start thinking about these things, I turn to the Internet. I check out Pinterest, blogs, Wikipedia and I love to google! I seem to suddenly become a researcher and I love it. This has all brought me to this blog. Why not share my thoughts and inspirations with other people with similar lifestyles and likes as myself. I’m busy with the children and the home yet I still have a love for design, art, travel, etc. Posts will be kept short because I know how it is to quickly fit in a little inspiration with Internet time between a diaper change and a bottle. Besides, usually all I need is an image to inspire me so most posts will be more about the images. I want to share with you what still inspires me. What still inspires Ma. What inspires you?
