i have bling now, and now you can have it on your blog as well! wear it proudly friends!
second off i have to tell you that i love getting your emails. really i do. and just because i don't get back to you right away doesn't mean i don't want to get back to you all. it's just life you know...kind of happens. and i promise i will get back to you all soon.
one thing i've noticed though through your emails is that even though you don't know each other (well some of you do) i keep getting asked the same questions from different people. so i've decided that instead of answering the same questions over and over i'm going to address them in posts broken down into two different categories:
ORGANIZING 101
where we will touch issues like getting rid of junk, simplifying your lives, having your kids help with thier rooms, clutter control and scheduling your house cleaning ...i'm sure the list will expand as we keep going.and
DECORATING 101
where we will tackle things like the correct placement of pictures on a wall, grouping, and cheap and easy decor.now keep in mind this will all just be V-isms and nothing fancy. i have helped people organize their spaces and time before, and i have helped decorate houses, but by no way am i saying i'm a professional...so there you go...my disclaimer. so in the near future start looking for 101's.
now if you have anything you want me to talk about go ahead leave me a comment or email me and i'll see what i can do! also if there is anything that i cover and you have MORE info on it go ahead and leave me a comment or email and we will work it into future 101's.
here's to making our home's sanctuaries one organizing or decorating project at a time!

Love you blog!
I have a question for you - do you have any tips for cleaning up after a day of projects? Between ink and hot glue and spray paint I seem to be constantly trying to scrub one substance or another off my skin.
I sometimes use gloves depending on my mood and although I try to be careful I always end up covered in paint.
Any 'been there done that' tips would be greatly appreciated.

damn, I meant 'your' blog!
Well after visiting here for a few months, I too love your blog. It's always interesting and you write like you enjoy it.
So any hints are great. Those of us out here who visit often are always interested in what we all do.
Yeah, cute button. I checked out her website, really cute stuff. So are you and Jacob going to be Professors now??? Look forward to your 101 courses!
I do love your new banner, but the other one was so great too, and that is what made me stop and read your blog. It was so different from the rest, just like you!

I don't remember if you've already posted about this, but I want some of your secrets to your great photos too.
And of course I'm all about the decluttering, though I think it's going to be impossible in my house--it's too small with too many people in it.
Hey,V! I love your header and the button, they are so cute! Someday I want mine professionaly done too.
I have a question, where did you find the small wood hangers? I have been looking for them but so far, no luck.
Happy blogging! :)
I just found your blog, and I love it! Over the weekend I drank tea and read through the archives, it was so fun. My question for you is, how did you learn to quilt? Would you ever do a quilting 101 tutorial? Your house is amazing....and I look forward to your decorating tips.

can't wait to get the 101's!! Very excited! Also..I am putting your button on my blog!
Hi Vanessa :)
I'm going to love the 101's! Love the blog button too and I'm going to put it on my blog links blog :)
I so hear you on the emails. I feel awful, but I don't always get to them and the comment return is slow going these days too. I can't seem to juggle it as well as I could before now that I'm working on the house AND having a life LOL I put a disclaimer on my blog, because if I don't do either of those things I won't have anything to blog about. It's a vicious circle ;)
Thank you for the sweet compliment! I love your blog too :)

wall treatments: can you mix art and photo and what about frames? and how much of the wall do you use? is it better to have large things or lots of little? and any modern decor wall ideas. I love the shelf with the white pitchers. and window treatments anything new here? its seems like the same old department store stuff..a bit boring.
Thanks! I love you blog too! You very inspiring!
Looking forward to your 101's.
I am pumped about this!
