You are always welcome to visit me anytime.<br /><br />Your blog and photos are just gorgeous! ~WOW! You are so blessed to live in Italy. That is my dream destination one day. Sigh...I would love to visit Rome and a coastal town as well.<br /><br />The framed blue shadow box above my garden tub is from a local home decor' store here called Kirklands. It has a little bit of Tuscan style to it. Italian style decor' is so popular here in the US. We all just love it here!<br /><br />Have a wonderfully blessed weekend.<br />~Warmly, ~Melissa :)Melissa Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04112514946365838427noreply@blogger.com
