Well, we just had the best conversation with the great Anna Spiro all the way from "down undah". (sorry, just had to throw that in!). Anna in conversation is every bit as exuberant and charming as is her blog and her design style.

First Ladies, Thank You so much for hosting Anna today so that the world could hear her sweet voice and now we can all put that incredible sound to the words she writes on ABT. Anna: You are so humble and gracious and absolutely beautiful. Thank you for sharing your story and your vision. You are obviously a bit of your Mom and Grandmother - how lovely - and how lucky your son is! It is extremely rare to meet a person who is so driven yet so soft. This contradiction is a special gift that you were given. I adore your work, your style, your eye, your business sense and your blog. I can not wait to see what you will give the future.

I forgot to ask Anna: is that white (for walls and floors etc.) you use just 'white' or is it a warm, cool or ??? white?
We learned quickly that Absolutely Beautiful Things isn't idle bragging.
Thanks so much to Anna and the great skirted ones. It's so nice to hear the voices behind the words. You can cover more ground in a 20 minute conversation than in a day of email exchanges. And you don't even have to spell check or proof read.
And here here for Courtney Barnes, every post is such a delight I always forget I'm learning something as well.
I loved listening to my fellow Aussie - what a delight. Great show as always girls....thank you, xv.
Yeah for the Aussies. It's not just all swimming and football! Loved listening to the interview with Anna, she's an inspiration to us all.
I've been so lucky to get to know Anna and she is one of the most generous people you'll ever meet! Incredibly thoughtful.
Thank you Terry! What a wonderful thing to hear. Appreciate that.
Hello Ladies,
Wonderful conversation. I want to first thank Joni for not mentioning the "stalkers" when Anna spoke of people approaching her. How bold we were to knock on Joni's door and how kind she was to meet and greet us. You are one in a million Mrs. Webb!!!!
The second thing that comes across very clearly is the generousity of bloggers to one another. You have all helped each other so much!
Last but not least...thank you Anna for appreciating American design and bringing it to your lovely country.
Wow ladies, this is wonderful...I am thrilled by the inspirations of the SRT!!!! Your advice and guests are informative, and it was truly enjoyable to listen to Anna's lovely voice. When my eyes are burning from the sea of beautiful blogs I've looked at, I will turn to you, close my eyes, and listen!

Thanks so much for your really kind comments!! Liberty - I use a colour here by Dulux called Vivid White which is a true white. Hope this helps!
Thanks again Joni, Linda & Megan for having me and I can't wait to see who your next guest is going to be!! I really hope you get to interview Courtney!!

Anna, thank you again, for spending time with us. You're always a tremendous inspiration and a joyful presence in the blog world (and please, I don't need you to respond to that. I give compliments, unconditionally)
I adore Anna. She's fabulous and her design sense is spectacular and sophisticated. Thank you ladies for having her. Joni- you know I adore you, I hope you are having an amazing time. Anna- I can't wait to work with you in our new little project. Thanks for being part of it. Megan and Linda you are both fabulous.
What a lovely interview. I came away feeling that Anna is as beautiful inside as she is on the outside. No wonder she creates such beauty. Thanks girls for another fun post. laurie

She's amazing!!! great interview and Anna's personality really does come right off the screen and through her voice.
I was thrilled to hear this wonderful interview with Anna(esp. in that charming accent of hers)
ABT was the first blog I ever visited, and now as a fledging blogger myself, I found this so inspiring. I understand how she feels about sharing so much of herself in her blog! How do you do it? You girls are just amazing!

I know, Iknow, just got around to listen quietly to Anna Spiro's interview, she is so sweet and humble and almost timid about talking about herself. I adore her attidude and her work!
To listen was a delight!

How lovely to hear another aussie accent - and to hear the voices of some of my favorite bloggers! Well done girls.
Hello Ladies of the Skirted Roundtable - What a beautiful interview! I was so touched how Anna's grandmother helped her when she was younger. By holding a job for her, no less! Thank you all for sharing these great stories!
