beautiful boxes…and a few other little things

Christie here! Oh it’s been so long since I’d been out to see sweet Linda and Ludmil! Every time I go and visit them, it’s so refreshing. The simplicity of their home in Burton paired with their welcoming arms makes me want to move right in! While it’s not in my future to do so, I do enjoy the visits and want to make more every time I come away from there.

This trip was a bit social and a bit business (for my business!), but I always take my camera with me to capture a few of their lovely things. See the photographs below for a few of their latest offerings!

Large Boxes: $35

Come and See…Marburger + Home

Yesterday I had the opportunity to go and spend time with Linda and Ludmil. I first met Linda at their home in Burton. It’s always a pleasure to see how she has it “this time”. As a creative, I can relate to wanting change, even if it is just switching the furniture around. I mean, who wants to be complacent?! So there it was and what a sight to see! So welcoming and warm, everything in one place, crisp and clean but still that lived in feel. Of course, if you’ve ever had the opportunity to meet Linda and Ludmil, no matter where you are, it’s always a welcome and warm place to be.

After photographing their home, we headed out to Marburger Farm. I’d never been and was anxious to see what fantastic creations Willow Nest had put together this year. If you’ll remember, it was last year that I met Linda and Ludmil and began photographing for them. Their place at Marburger is simply…well, there are a hundred adjectives I could say to describe their place, among them: magical, romantical, inviting,  and more…Enough of me talking…take a look for yourselves!
