I'm in a contemplative mood about simplifying my life, can you tell?<br /><br />Regarding the polar bear+dogs post, yes the photographer did state that at the first appearance of the polar bear, he was certain the bear was going to kill his dogs. But to his complete surprise (and relief), they became friends instead. I think the dogs were the photographer's sled-dog team.

Most of the photos here show rustic elements and materials, but they are still arranged in a clean, modern way. <br /><br />I agree with Avant Garde--I wouldn't do over my whole house like this, but my downstairs family room with the fireplace would look so cozy with a more rustic mantle and furniture!Jean Michelle Miernikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08971882597502010124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4711916785635061879.post-21705877075339152392010-02-23T10:13:39.844-05:002010-02-23T10:13:39.844-05:00I love the walls in the 2nd pic!
