Finally....grandma is a talented painter. Here's some painting she did for the bathroom (on paper -- then pasted to the wall....)

Copied from the print of the curtain...

And here's an album....The House

Edwina and Eddie

Your home is beautiful ... you have the same style of decor as I do! Did you visit my home?

:)

No... I don't think you did visit my home. Well, I don't have all the antiques you have ... I have modern repros... that's all our budget will allow at this time! ;) But if I could afford them, I would have the victorian chairs and settees!!! LOVE THEM! I also have some tole trays similar to the one you have on your mantel... I just love those too! Have you ever shopped for them on e-bay? That is where I got all of mine! ;)

OOOH! Another beautiful home!

Seriously guys, I'm getting the decorating itch with all the great decorating ideas I'm getting from these house visits!

Edwina and Eddie, your home is just Meooowvelous!
It begins from that front entrance. Hello? WOW!

LOVE all the greenery outside, LOVE the French doors, and my favorite...MY FAVORITE is the gorgeous floor in your dining room!

Thank you for opening the doors to your lovely home.

I have one word. FABULOUS.

Kim....of course I visited your home! I haven't missed a one. I've never used ebay but I am a fan of the Tuesday Morning stores....

Gorgeous house! Gorgeous cats!

(I couldn't get the link to the album to work.)

What a beautiful residence the E's have! I especially love the ivy leaf deco and the front door with the little sculptures. :)

Luna and Lily are thinking it looks like a real kitty palace! :)

What an incredible home! It's beautiful. No wonder Edwina thinks she's royalty!http://petoftheday.com/talk/images/our_smilies/wink.gif It's very elegant and yet inviting and comfortable. What a great house and a wonderful tour. Thank you so much for sharing your home and the visit was wonderful!

I love the paintings on the wall! Grandma is very talented!:D http://petoftheday.com/talk/images/o...es/biggrin.gif

What a beautiful home! I love your decor! It just looks so elegant! Thanks for the tour of your beautiful home!

Willie:)

Sara, thanks for giving us a tour of your gorgeous home.:D

The sun-porch off the bedroom is delightful! You have a VERY nice home! Of course the E's at the bottom of the steps is definitely the best attraction!

You have a beautiful and elegant home Sara. I love the screened porch and the gorgeous backyard. My favorite part? The hosts!!:D

Its as elegant as I had expected... what else would Edwina surround herself with?

Is your house very old? It has the look of a wonderful old home with the thick walls (I saw thick inset at the front door) I have always wanted to live in an old home. One with a hundred years worth of memories and love inside its walls.

I love the stained glass window you have hanging. I love everything!

What a gracious home and a wonderful example of some of the best of Chicago architecture. Your decor is simply impeccable and so suited to the home. Has your home ever been featured in a magazine? If not it should be. Simply stunning.

Wow!!! What a gorgeous home you have there! Its absolutely beautiful. I love your garden. Thanks for sharing!

Since I've been there I'll never be happy again with my apartment:( One of my biggest problems here in the US is the high shipping cost;)

Beautiful home and beautiful kitties as tour guides. Sara you have a flair for decorating for sure! Everything is lovely and I enjoyed myself thoroughly. ;)

P.S. The Beware of the Cat sign cracked me up! I guess it's good Eddie couldn't read when he arrived. It was best he found out all by himself! :p

Wow, gorgeous! And my comment to the tiny host and hostess with the mostest -- yes, your grandmeowmy is VERY TALENTED. Wow. (I think your Meowmy is very talented in putting designs together, too.) You little guys are VERY good pickers of furever homes.

Your home is beautiful. Thanks for giving us a great tour (and some great decorating ideas :D ).

Your home is beautiful. I always look out for the little details in your other pictures, because you have a wonderful eye for detail :)

You could do with a lot more pink though ;)

You have a beautiful home and I enjoyed every inch of the pictures you shared. It looks so comfy and cozy.

Sara, E&E what a magnificant house you live in. I am truely in awe :o of your decorating style. I love the sunroom off of the master bedroom. I can not get over the talent that painted the flowers and ivy on the walls....I can not even draw a stick figure.

Thank you again for the wonderful tour. I really enjoyed myself.

HH Edwina , I just knew that you live in a Palace , and one day , I will come, and visit you , and bring Rocca , foe Eddie , as she likes Big Cats! JJJ3 , your love!

Me too!!! Another great home. I LOVE those couches :)

Super home:D

What a beautiful home. I especially loved your grandmother's painting. I like to do decorative painting too but since I rent my house, I can't paint on the walls. Now I have lots of new ideas borrowing your grandma's idea of painting on paper! She does beautiful work by the way!:D

A beautiful home, thanks for the tour!:D

Such an elegant and beautiful woman couldn't have a non-beautiful house!

And I know, Edwina with her taste contributed a lot :)

Edwina & Eddie have a lovely home. Everything is purrfect.:)

I'll bet you're glad they let you two live there.:D :D

Thanks for the tour. I enjoyed it very much.:)

sooooo perfect! i just loved being there!!!

E & E are sure lucky to have such a beautiful home to live in.

Thanks so much for the tour!
