Welcome back to Annamarie's home.
Lace. Ruffles. Treasures. Tulle. Roses. Pearls. Vintage goodness.
Are you ready to continue on this romantic journey?
If you missed the first two parts of the tour, go here and here.
It's time to meet the pretty lady...

| Annamarie and husband Ralph |
Here are quoted texts by Annamarie to me, because like you, I wondered. I wondered a lot of things and she always was gracious and funny with her answers.
"My sister Mary and I used to own a cottage store in Florida, it was our dream after our mom passed away. Our store and my home were featured in Country Living Magazine in the April 2006 issue, "Rose Patterned Home Decor." The co-editor, Jane Dagmi, came to my home and shop. It was so exciting. "
"I now live in North Carolina. This is my dream world. There is so much more, even other bathrooms and another bedroom."
"Yes, I'm a neat freak and I don't stop cleaning! But I love it. However, I do use my house. I entertain all the time, love to have tea parties, bbq's and dinner parties."
"I know so many people ask how does your husband live in this house. He thinks it's romantic, like a bed and breakfast! His motto is happy wife, happy life!"
"I just love all the comments! I love living in our shabby chic home and all the beautiful people in it."
Finally, the most anticipate answer. Will she have a blog? "You make it look so easy, maybe one day soon I will start one." (She's the one who makes it look easy with all these pretty photos.) You can check out her Ebay shop, Bocarose.

Each room is more beautiful than the one before, if that's possible! I have never seen so much eye candy in one place in my life! Absolutely gorgeous!
Her house is incredible. It's obvious that it is her passion. The ruffly dresses are to die for!

Wow-so beautiful and everything in it's place-no wonder it was in a magazine!
Just when I thought it couldn't get any better! I hope so much that Annemarie starts a blog...SOON! I have to chuckle to myself, so many pretties in her home I have but not set up so well! Thanks again for this absolutely mesmerizing home of pink lushness! I have raised 3 sons in a very pink and girly home, none complained, neither has my husband! I think beauty and warmth are essential elements no matter what color. And yes if Momma is happy, the whole family is happy!LOL later,Lori
Happy Pink Saturday!
Well, this is definitely the house of total romance!

Happy Pink Saturday, Thanks for sharing this gorgeous home. Just beautiful. Have a wonderful week.
What beautiful rooms!
I agree, how romantic, and he must be Mr. Romance! How wonderful. Everything was such a treat and I will have to go and visit the other posts because I just can't get enough!
Oh, wow, the couch and pillows are my favorite. I loved it all. I especially adore the dress forms. I bet it was even more fantastic in person!
This has to be the most beautiful and romantic home I have ever seen. They are a stunning couple. Even the linen closet is beautiful! Thank you for this beautiful tour and thank Annamarie for allowing a glimpse of her heaven.
I am in dreamy heaven. What a lovely home, so romantic I just can't find the words. Although I am a pink fraud, I have to admit I am in love with it all. The bath is just the most beautiful I have ever seen, so many pretties I would love to visit and take it all in.
When I went to look, I couldn't believe I was not a follower. I corrected that mistake and now won't miss a post. Happy Pink Saturday, Char
What wonderful eye candy! I am in awe! I'm going back to see what I missed....so much detail. Thank you for showing us Annemarie's gorgeous home!
This is just too fabulous for words! I have thoroughly enjoyed the tour of Annemarie's home. Her hubby is a darling for not only being understanding, but recognizing the romance! I'm not sure how many guys appreciate the romantic. Have a terrific weekend! Terri
Wow! What a gorgeous home! It's so beautiful. I could move in and live happily ever after!
I also loved the suitcase post. You got some beautiful suitcases for your daughter and son! I hope you find the perfect set for you!... Donna
Oh my gosh! What a fabulous home! So pretty! I don't think I could decorate as well as she does and if I lived there I don't think I would ever leave, ha!
Happy PS,
