dressers, maps and lovely pets





Who doesn't admire vintage dressers and maps?
I am a fan of both and I love them even more when used together
they add so much character to a room...the result can be delightful
don't you think?


via desire to inspire


and now for a little tribute to our four legged friends...
they adore us and we adore them and yes they can be cheeky
- especially when they know they are cute! still they give us
all they have a they never ask for anything in exchange...how fantastic is that? 
I suppose the least we can do is to let them hop on the couch with us every so often 
and cuddle up together...



both images via desire to inspire


Why not?...He he!

Have a fantastic day :))

    Maps and vintage pieces really go together so well, I agree. They just add something interesting to a room.

    Love the dog pictures.

    Lucky pooches to have such glamourous surroundings. Luck of the draw for pets, isn't it? They either get spoiled rotten by loving owners, or sadly neglected by sad owners.

    I love the last pup, Claudia - out cold and owns the domain. I imagine family life continues around him without so much as a paw flinch :)

    Hello Claudia:
    We do agree with you about old maps which, when framed, do add both intrigue and interest to a room particularly, we feel, a hall or study.

    The last image you show is wonderful!! Enjoy your day too.

    All about the maps, I'm yet to find the perfect one for our house. Drawers are great, I've salvaged about 40 or so old drawers to use in a few upcoming projects :)
