me at home

I found out about Ikea's America at Home challenge through Brittany's blog. True to form, I had to re-vamp the instructions and do it myself.

Here is what I came up with.

Perhaps I might expand this and create an entire mini album about my life @ home.

Personally, I think it's important to take photos of where you live. I wish I had more pictures of my bedrooms across the years. I got really good at in high school, and since then I make sure to get at least one picture of my entire room. After all, I don't intend to spend the rest of my life in the sorority house, even though it is a pretty good place!

Some great photographers who I think capture the "American" spirit, and Americans beautifully are:
•Nicole Hill
•Belle Photography
•Matt Clayton
•Brittany Woodall

With that said I'll leave you to have a great weekend with a picture of a place that makes me feel at home and also embodies the American spirit more than anything I know:
