The part about your parents refusing to let you have a canopy bed in their ultra-modern Midcentury home really struck a chord! I too wanted a canopy bed as a child and ended up with an interior-design sense that's wildly different from my parents' (which was very Southwestern). Do you think we gravitated to Chinoiserie Chic because it's so opposite to our parents' taste?Carriehttps://disneytravelbabble.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2395859504434574133.post-4329603440678816782021-01-07T07:13:45.432-05:002021-01-07T07:13:45.432-05:00I am staying away from you - LOL.I am staying away from you - LOL.Beth Connollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10443450944645563476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2395859504434574133.post-48310691216350444922021-01-06T19:06:32.981-05:002021-01-06T19:06:32.981-05:00I have never had any luck w indoor palms!
