I grabbed one of his at the Elle Decor Concept House during Blogfest.<br /><br />And, thank you for your fun comment on my demo! I was much more nervous before we began the project. Now, it's so much fun to see it evolve. I took a walk in my new laundry room today (just a shell) - oh, the little pleasures in life!<br /><br />Have a wonderful weekend!<br />xo ElizabethAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15395215787881578608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8087985679708902082.post-47782948580228619032011-11-18T02:55:03.520-05:002011-11-18T02:55:03.520-05:00Rebecca, I LOVE having the magnifying glasses arou...Rebecca, I LOVE having the magnifying glasses around!
