One of the guests said something on the Nate Berkus show that just made me think about decorating in a whole new way. We see lots of theme decorating and decorating by color. However, the guest said that Nate was always talking about how your home should tell a story. I love this because it’s so much more eclectic and personal. I couldn’t really find anywhere that he had actually said this but it’s such a fun approach to life.

One of my favorite childhood memories is around Christmas when the big catalogs would come out and we would finally be able to see what the best new toys are. Now I wonder if you just have to surf the web. You may also have to watch TV. I miss the feeling of it all being in one place to find things like kids christmas gifts 2011. I know some stores still do have Christmas catalogs but usually you have to sign up or pay for them. Do you get Christmas catalogs?
