More on Beach houses

Well I just love this picture from country living magazine, I wonder if they have 5 little children. I'm a mother of 6 children 3 are my own and the other 3 are my gorgeous step children who live with me full time as there mum died in a car accident. My son is 18 and my youngest is lily who is 3 (I named my shop after her lily-grace) but most of our kids are 13 and older and on a good day I will tell you how wonderful they are and on a bad day well I better leave that blank after all they are teenages!! but in all honesty I'm so lucky and looking at this picture puts a smile on my face but I am glad I don't have 5 toddlers! not at all good for us mum's keen on decorating with white. Have a great day my bloggging friends.

Awwwwww, that setup is really quite sweet. You could just picture the little ones coming in from the beach and lining their eager little faces up here for lunch.

Beautiful room, Ihave teenage girls and I WOULD NOT have white furniture...plus we are kind of messy so the couch would not have that crisp white look very long. I commend you on having 6 children and running a business too!! God Bless..

Hi there! Love those beach house pictures and all the chairs. You must be so busy (and fortunate!) with six children. I have three boys between 2 and 5 and I cannot imagine what it will be like when they become teenagers.

The beach house in the photo is beautiful -- feels so fresh and summery.

love it! and i have five toddlers (under 2 years old) so i may have to steal this great idea.

i actually have a white slipcovered sofa too - it goes in the wash with oxiclean at least once every two weeks.
