Well, it will be killer, is all I can say.<BR/><BR/>Wanted to comment on those slips....I am a fool for blue and white ticking. If I had my way, I'd have a blue ticking cover for my Tempurpedic mattress! <BR/><BR/>I'm planning on changing colors to blue and white along with neutral furniture, and I think blue & white ticking will make perfect roman shades!<BR/><BR/>Have you ever seen the book about Roger Banks-Pye? He did a very formal bath for Valentino the designer, and used padded ticking on the walls. It's great stuff. Love the slipcovers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8756498813126879104.post-66949937211124507222008-05-28T09:35:00.000-05:002008-05-28T09:35:00.000-05:00You didn't forget to let in the dog, I hope!

My family vacationed for the first time last year on Lake Travis and we all fell in love with the area. (We are Oklahoma born but feel like we are Texans at heart...and we are not afraid to say it)I drove around daily just itching to see the interior of some of those homes...and now I have. I love your blog and will visit often. I love Hill Country landscaping also so please post pics of your gardens too. Your home is such inspiration.

Problem is, we are still re-modeling and have construction going on and I've started re-decorating and haven't even moved in from the first makeover attempt! I guess I'm fickle. <BR/><BR/>Do you mind telling me who in Frdbrug is sewing your slipcovers? Also, wanted to comment that Villa Texas is one of my favorite stores in town!!! Love it. They are also one of our top customers. Although I hate that they're leaving their current location, I'm excited to see what they will come up with in the new spot. <BR/><BR/>Thanks,<BR/>DebLavender Chickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17266253102704443700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8756498813126879104.post-6751447405559156982008-03-23T12:41:00.000-05:002008-03-23T12:41:00.000-05:00I love ticking...it is such a great fabric to use....I love ticking...it is such a great fabric to use...makes me relax just thinking about it! Love the new slips on the sofa and chairs....OH! and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your new bed...I am looking for something similar to put in our new home...hmmm....I'm thinking ROAD TRIP to Fred! <BR/><BR/>BTW...I think we have found our builder and architect...FINALLY...it's been crazy and very informative at the same time...so far we have interviewed 7 builders...and all of them had something unique to bring to the project...we've met w/3 architects...and sadly none of them wowed us...but we have just spoken with a builder that we LOVE...and he has an architect that has done several of his homes...luckily we were able to see a couple of these homes and look over other renderings...we will meet with him very soon...and hopefully fall in love. The builder is quite the character...builds very quality homes...and we LOVE HIM! So we're half way there I suppose...I never in my wildest dreams thought it would take this long...but not sure why...b/c we are quite particular...<BR/><BR/>Loving the house...can't wait to hear about your new plans.<BR/><BR/>Blessings...<BR/>TeresaLivingTheLifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10471996311329520781noreply@blogger.com
