I put this mosaic together of some of my old photos and I realized that this should be titled "My Romantic Home ~ A Year in Review" because these photos were all taken over the last year for my blog. That made me think that it would be great to see other blogger's favorite photos for 2008 so I decided to host a "Year in Review" party. Do you want to join in? How about Monday, December 29th? You can either do a mosaic like mine or just share some of your favorite photos you've posted on your blog in 2008. I used Big Huge Labs Mosaic Maker for mine. Click here if you want to make one. I made the little graphic below...feel free to grab it and put it on your blog if you want. I'm going to try to get the Mr. Linky set up on my blog for this so look for more info coming soon if you want to join in!
Maybe I'll even make this an annual event!

Cindy...I don't have a blog but I just wanted to tell you that all your photos are gorgeous...especially grouped together like that. Everything looks SO professional and beautiful!
Sue :)
Cindy - sounds really fun. Since I just started my blog last month, I'm not even sure if I have enough pics to create a mosaic, but I will see. I'll come back to sign up if so. Sounds fun!
Hello Cindy,
Great idea! Looking forward to it; maybe even I {a new blogger} will try and give it a go. Sounds like fun.
Blessings,
Sandi
Ok, I'm in! Are you going to create a list on your site for us?
Great idea,I would love to join in.
Carolyn
What a fun idea Cindy! Count me in!
Count me in! What a great idea!
I really like this idea, if I can figure out the technical aspects I'll do it.
Cool idea, count me in. The photo has to have been posted on the blog? Can we do other photos we've tsken during the year? I've only had a blog since the end of May.
Hi Cindy,
I've enjoyed looking at your pictures and just recently started checking out your blog daily. I now can't wait to see what you'd done next. You are so talented and your apt is beautiful! Please tell me where you got your three tiered "thingie" (I can't think of a better term) - I want one just like it - I actually want you to come and do my house! Thank you for the pictures that touch my heart! Wishing you the very best Christmas and New Year!
TerTerH78: Thanks, the tiered stand came from a cute shop in Disneyland in the early 1960s. My mom bought it and passed it down to me a couple years ago. I love it! I've had people email me and want to buy it but I'll never sell it. It's very sentimental to me.
Sounds like fun! It would make me try the mosaic - I'll see how it goes. Great idea. Sally
Cindy, your photos are beautiful! I think your blue armoire is my favorite piece of furniture that you've redone.
You need to post a new picture of your mirrors going up your stairway.
It looks like you're finally finished with them.
~elaine~
Oh this sounds like fun! I'm in!
Debi
Toooooooooooooooo fun! I'm in!!!

oH i lOVE this Idea!!! Thank you. I'll get to working on mine. Laurie
Sounds fun! I've only been blogging a couple of months so mine might be more of a "season in review" ;)
Wow...sounds like fun! I'll be here!!!
What great fun! I'd love to join in. I'll be practicing on the mosaic, as I've not ever tried that before.
Big TX Hugs,

I would love to join in too, I haven't been blogging a whole year tho either. But it would be fun to fill in the blanks with things I had done this last year.
I'll join in!!! That's a wonderful idea!!
Isabel
What a neat idea. I would love to join.
Debbie
Count me in Cindy. I've been so swamped I needed to make sure I could pull it off. I'm really looking forward to it. Thanks and great idea!
How fun! I will admire this year and perhaps join in next year.
What a genius idea! I can't wait to go through my old photos to post and also see what everyone comes up with. Fun, fun, fun!
~Angela :-)
How nice!! Good idea..since I have done a lot of mosaics in my blog I would like to join the party!! But...I am a bit stupid and I don't know whether you want us all to make it in our own blog or that you want us to send a mosaic from our blog...I am from The Netherlands..and hope to hear the answer....kind regards, sylvia extra from Villa Extra.
Villa Extra: You would put it on your blog and I would put a link to it on mine so everyone could come and visit your blog to see it. (I hope that makes sense?)
I'll try! I've been wanting to make a grid photo for a while. I use Photoshop. Hmmm.... what pictures to use?
Cindy what a great idea, but since I just started and don't have many pictures, I will sit this one out and wait until next year. Please drop in to see me.
Merry Christmas!
Cindy, I have only had a blog for a short time but have a mosaic to share, so count me in.
Renee
Would you mind telling me what program you used to make this mosaic? What it's called? I love the way it looks and it really highlights your photos. Love your blog. Thanks, Alice

Cindy, I do not have a blog, but I will be checking out all of the links that get posted. I love all of your photos, you have such great style and the fact that you do it on a budget gives me hope. I especially love the white framed mirrors that go up your stairwell. So beautiful!! I would love to just have one like them. You always offer such great eye candy!! And, you have a great name. Hugs, Cindy S.
Cindy,
I am a day late to the party but I'd still love to join in! Thanks for hosting!
I just found out about the party! I am so new that my only pics have been over the holiday's....so I will put my last header which was a mosaic of the last month's posts, at the bottom of my post for today. Please count me in. This was a great idea...and I hope you continue as a yearly tradition! Seems everyone wants to come to the party! ~Cheryl
Cindy,
Your home certainly has that romantic quality! Your photos are fab! I love the softness of your interiors, they have such a restful quality. Thanks for sharing your inspiring beauty!
Hope your 2009 is as wonderful as 2008!
