favorite space: a passion for detail


When Susan, aka MoonlightandMagnolias, posted her back porch on Rate My Space in July, the space skyrocketed to top ranking on the front page. It reminded me of one of my favorite decorating books, "A Passion for Detail," by super-designer Charlotte Moss. Susan's RMS spaces display her unique ability to create beautiful vignettes that don't look "staged."

The sign says it all, "Summer Breeze makes me feel fine." I love the ethereal quality of this outdoor room.

Blog award So you can imagine how honored I am to receive this blog award, left, from such an accomplished person!

Susan's great blog, "Between Naps on the Porch," is here. After you visit, you will , no doubt, wonder when she has time for naps! View and rate all of her RMS spaces here.

Now my task is to select some of my favorite blogs and pass it on.

Thanks so much, Susan!
