We made it home! The trip was an experience of a lifetime, but I'm very happy to be home. I missed Carol so much, and worried about my doggies. They are all fine, and glad to have mom home again.
While in Japan I looked for shelter magazines, but was not able to find too many, and sadly the quality of most of them was not as great as I expected. I did find a copy of Elle Decor Japan, or as they call ElleDeco. I chose a few pictures to scan. There were not many actual homes featured in this issue, I don't know if that is usual or not. I would have loved to see inside of more homes while I was there.
There were a few orders that came in from PlainObjects while I was gone, and all items have been shipped. Thanks for being patient while I was away.
All for now......
wow, that last pic of the chandelier is amazing....
kisses,

I'm glad you have returned home, safe and sound :) It's wonderful to travel and experience different cultures and have some adventure - but at the same time, so comforting to know you can come back home to a warm place and loved ones. I've enjoyed looking at fun snippets of your trip - thanks for sharing!

I love so much about asian decor. It is so clean and beautiful. I love the furniture, and how simple and ornate it can be at once.
It is all about balance.

I love the lattice-like decoration on that flower pot with the yellow flowers. I see a diy project in my future.

A security bag protects the carrier from travel theft and includes an invisible stainless steel strap sewn into the fabric and a protectant on the main zipper.

The design is quite good but unfortunately I can't read kanji. It will be more clear to me if you put some of explanation of each picture.
