Modern country kitchen..

 

This is such a great kitchen.  I cannot decide if I like the lowered eating areas that are so popular right now off of the islands.  What do you think?  I think this one is well done and the stools make it!

On a quick note- I was so excited that Pinterest came out with their new IPad app- if you have not tried it you should, it is very wonderful!

 

Gorgeous transitional mix.. timeless

 

I am loving the mix in this house of rustic and traditional with a bit of vintage put in there!  So fun, it reminds me that we should design with what we love, to make a great mix of styles and to not be married to anything that would make the space anything but timeless. 

There is so much going on this month I cannot wait until I have a moment to share some of my latest projects with you and all of the great things that are coming for this year!

Simply French Country

I love the simplicity of it all.  The colors are soft, all white dishes, simple repetition, and clean lines.  So relaxed.

This weekend is full of chores and work on the Master Bath.  I should have everything ordered and going.  With all of the final decisions made around here I should be able to give you a little update.  I am excited but very ready for it to be finished!!  

What are you up to this weekend?

Stunning kitchen

I love the subtle textures and colors in this kitchen and how they contrast so well with the range.  It just seems so classic and old world in a way.

garden secrets..

Sometimes I find that when I take a minute to see things in a different light  I can really find 

inspiration..

We visited some really beautiful gardens while we were in France and I must say that I have a whole new idea of how I want to transform what I have..

So far my garden has basically remained untouched for the past 3 years, simply because I was not sure what exactly we should do with it.  Now I am inspired and hopefully will take some action!

These gardens have been cared for deeply maybe that is what I need a loving hand to make it work.

French Rustic

I am so wishing for the simple rustic interiors of this type of place.  Someday I want to have a home in France - well two actually.  I would love to have a little apartment in Paris and a country house somewhere quite.  These are dreams people...  BIG dreams but without dreams what do we have.?

So relaxing and perfect in the summer...

Vintage in Cream and White

This kinda has a country cottage type of feeling. But I am loving it- The mirror is amazing over the sofa!

Clean, crisp and casual

I love the floor mirrors and the collage of art with the mirrors in the living area. A perfect home for relaxing!

Caroline Scheeler's Country house take two

I was so excited to find additional images of Caroline's house. It has such a great feeling and showcases her talent for the unusual mix that makes her such a success! My previous post has images from another magazine layout about her, check it out here. I love the view of her family room with all of the grey and brown mixed!!
