I’ll try to post some more entries over the weekend, but with my aunt and uncle coming up for his 45th reunion at Dartmouth (yeah!), his sister (my mom) and the rest of us will be with them. For today, I’m wrapping up with this gorgeous entry from Monika Kost. It’s a-m-a-z-i-n-g. Excuse me while I pick my jaw off the ground.
Name: Monika Kost
Occupation: Photographer/New Mom
Website: http://www.monikaelenaphoto.com
Location: California and DC
Theme: Bohemian In Morocco
Inspiration: My inspiration is the idea of a young free-spirited woman traveling through the great country of Morocco, with all the enchantingly bold, bright colors and exotic textiles and brightly colored foods. This room is for a traveler of the world, which I am, and I would love for my room to look like this!

Notes: If you’ve submitted an entry that has not posted yet, you may not have been selected since I’m only posting those in the final running. Since I was flooded with entries and my yahoo mail crashed twice, I purchased more bandwidth so if I haven’t replied to confirm your entry, I may not have received it. Please resend it over the weekend if you can. Thank you!
If you have questions for Monika, please comment below so she can reply. Thanks for entering, Monika
