Since becoming a mommy, I'm constantly reminded of my own childhood. Back then, parts of my house would turn into a castle or maybe a spaceship. What I wished for the most was a window seat, where I could sit and let my long hair out the window, just like Rupunzel. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">The possibilities for making imaginative spaces for kids are endless.

I am going to keep this post short, because I woke up with the world's worst migraine! As soon as I can look at the monitor a little longer, I will post pictures of a fun get-together I went to last night :)<br />I couldn't resist showing off these beautiful pictures. It is a British home that consists of my favorite color palette. I am drawn to the chocolate and red tones in the wood combined with creamy tones and varying shades of purple. I've always found these colors very sensual.<br /></div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_gt7eA_0QKPA/SBHxFp5bAHI/AAAAAAAABk4/WrFGPcy-8x8/s1600-h/Picture+45.png" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5193196924783231090" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_gt7eA_0QKPA/SBHxFp5bAHI/AAAAAAAABk4/WrFGPcy-8x8/s800/Picture+45.png" style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_gt7eA_0QKPA/SBHxF55bAII/AAAAAAAABlA/P07q91sdpmU/s1600-h/Picture+46.png" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5193196929078198402" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_gt7eA_0QKPA/SBHxF55bAII/AAAAAAAABlA/P07q91sdpmU/s800/Picture+46.png" style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 677px; height: 414px;" /></a>The bright settee gives the room a jolt of life. I also love the jewel tone, purple chair. The fabric looks like it might be velvet or mohair. I love either fabric, because the color becomes multi-dimensional.
