I shared my Oxford, England pics yesterday (Oxford and the Annie Sloan Shop) and today I have photos to share of London!  If you are not interested in a lot of selfies, I totally understand 🙂  You may want to skip this post!  I am meeting a client tomorrow and shall pick up that paint brush soon!  Until then, here goes!
