  6. Danielle, you astound me! You have such an amazing eye for design. I look at half of those things and can't figure out how I'd make them work...and then I see your "inspirational images" and think, "Oh, of course that random granny chair could be beautiful with a fresh coat of paint and the right fabric!" You're a visionary, sister. :)
