One of my contacts on Flickr, MurderWithMirrors often uses magazine pages as backgrounds for her miniature scenes. I've decided to try this technique myself. My inspiration---the unofficial start to summer, Memorial Day is fast approaching. This has me thinking about carefree outdoor living. I envisioned an airy room that with grand doors that provide for seamless indoor-outdoor living. I used floor tile samples from Lowe's and The Rubber Flooring Company. Add in a few standard furniture pieces then sprinkle with an accessory or two...voila! I think it turned out nicely. What do you guys think?

Dreamy!
Love it!
It's so perfect! I can picture myself lounging there and taking in the outdoor views. Simple and dramatic!
I just realized you have my blog featured as a "friend." How sweet of you to do this. I love this magazine method. It's kind of amazing how they somehow look real.
Your friend in smallness.
