Around here we often have to make lemonade out of lemons. We live in a hundred year old house and we choose to see the "character" and the "romance" in the cracked, warped and falling apart bits of the house. But yesterday we didn't have to look through rose colored lenses.
Yesterday our home was filled to overflowing with loveliness. Fifi & her photographer, Mark Lohman, spent the day with us, photographing our character-filled house. These are some seriously delightful people! We had such a wonderful time, joking with them and seeing our house through their lens!
As soon as I have some photos and links, I will share them with you. Tonight though I'm back to pricing and heading off to Na-Da. Thanks so much to Fifi and Mark for an amazing day! I'm humbled and it was an honor to spend time with them. If you are in the Chicago area, you can visit with them this weekend at Na-Da. We'd love for you to stop by!
Looks like so much fun.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful sale with Marie and chums.

You are a rock star in my eyes... believe me!!!! I can't wait to see your house!
ReplyDeleteSo neat, Polly.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear the official news. Can't wait to hear/see more from you.
I also love that you're sharing that old houses do have flaws (or are well loved) as you know, that's the case here as well.
Have fun @ Anne-Marie's, take tons of photos....please!
Love the photo of you and Fifi.
