decor of years past

way before i got married, i would keep a stash of magazine articles, ideas, recipes, etc.
going through my january list, i found my ideas that i'd kept in binders. in page protectors.

yes. i am a self-proclaimed dork.

so i am sharing some with you that i'd snipped
and recently snapped pictures of
so i can save space.
rustic living room i love without the patter on that chair.
yipes!

hello, dream kitchen.
except, maybe i would like glass front on the cabinets
and a different light fixture.

love love!

do any of you do crazy things like this from time to time?
it's an addiction that none of my friends until recently
could understand :)
