Well this time, she graciously invited us back. I am so thrilled that the magazine <a href="http://issuu.com/floridamagazinepublishers/docs/wellingtonthemagazinefebruary2012?mode=embed&showFlipBtn=true&pageNumber=70"><b>Wellington The Magazine</b></a>  included her home in the February,2012 edition. Feel free to click on the link to the magazine.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">One thing my sister does really well in her home is accessorize.
