These are a couple of very interesting (and so carefully created) homes and photographs.
I may be trying to copy....just maybe.
Today, after our house was (professionally) cleaned I quickly snapped a few shots to get that perfect image (below). Oh shoot - this picture has a giant sized cereal box of Corn Flakes in the way! All of this makes me think of the online image I am guilty of trying to create. I love seeing beauty in homes and creativity in cooking and do strive for that myself - I won't deny it. But let's be honest, most of the time, at least for me - it is a futile process. Most of the time, the house is a mess and the kids are yelling for me so I can play/read/entertain/intervene.
Of course - that is my own "perfection" and I should just document those photos instead.
Not so perfect.
Perfect.
