Shelley,
Am I really the first comment?? YipEE!
OMG,
First of all, I have read TOPC for about 4 years. It may have been my intro to blogging. Then today, (it's 6am) I rush to see the new one. And to be honest I always look at the pics first, then go back & read. So I'm looking at the photos & saying to self, 'hum, Jennifer really got it right this time.' Next pic...lovin it. Then it starts looking familiar. Then I see the kitchen, 'I know this house'! When I get to the studio I'm screaming 'Shelley'!!! (it was the mannequin wearing the purse necklace that cinched it). Oh Shelley, you guys must be proud, what an amazing place to call home! Wish they would have shown the out building too. Happy New Year to you sweet girl. I'm so glad I met you this year, see you in 2011! Lisa
Having seen the awesomeness of your home, I know they made the right choice! What a way to ring in the new year! XOX
Shelley,
Congratulations! Your home looks
beautiful!
I am on my way over to see more :)

Shelley,
I am at a loss for words...you have an incredible home! I keep scrolling through and looking at these amazing pictures. I am thrilled to have found your blog! Your attention to detail is incredible and it should be cottage of the year. :)
Happy New Year!

Your blog is beautiful! Have a wonderful, happy New Year!

Hi Dear, congrats on being featured on Jennifer's blog. I just love your home. I just purchased a couple weeks ago the large french pillow seen on one of your beds, from Tracey, I love it, mine is huge and I was either going to use it on a bed or the back cushion to my love seat. I love your entire home, the bedroom with the brown is my fav, very inspiring, hugs from California, tami
Congratulations Shelley! That is something special. I'm headed over right now to take a look!

Hi Shelley!

It is so beautiful, well thought out and oh so cozy!
Everything a home should be!
I no how excited you must be and so very deserving!

Visiting you from COTM... your home is beautiful.
Shell, this post passed right by me, don't know how I missed it. Congrats!
It is so evident that this style is YOU, because it continues seamlessly throughout. I don't think I've ever seen a home where every single thing looks perfect exactly where it is...nothing is too cluttered or too sparse...the perfect mix of neutral shades...completely wonderful!!
I am more excited about this than anything else I could have heard tonight. I have got to get over there quick...but first I have to wish you the best new year of your life sweet friend.
Love to you...
Shelley that is a beautiful feature of your home!!!! I could move right in. It is everything I love.
What a treat to see it all. I adore your style and I saw so many things I would love to swipe!!!
huggies to you
Congratulations Shelley. I was featured years ago and I have to say my home doesn't really look like that anymore. I like it much better now.
Best wishes for you in 2011.
Kathleen

Oh wow! Your home is beautiful! I enjoyed Jennifer's feature very much. I am dying to know where you got those beautiful wings that one of your dress forms is wearing. They must be antique- just gorgeous! Love your master bedroom most of all- so cozy and yes, sexy! I am happy to be your newest follower. Best wishes in 2011.
