Gorgeous Malibu Home

In this home of a film director and stylist you would expect nothing less than the tasteful decor you find in this Malibu home (Elle Decoration features this home- more photos here). The front of the home is made from barn wood brought in from Maine. The glass doors on the main floor open up to give the home an indoor/outdoor feeling and what about that gorgeous marble floor in the living room. Stunning! Love the iron railing running around the second floor landing and down the stairs and of course the stone tub in the bathroom.....well to say this is a stylish home is just the beginning....

Designer Home: Kali Cavanagh

This wonderful restored cottage is the home of designer Kali Cavanagh. A mix of new and old, designer and vintage it has so many fun elements throughout. I love the bathroom just off the master bedroom with the big iron tub in the room just outside the bathroom where barn doors make a fun entrance. Super lights hanging from the ceiling in the all white bedroom with vintage linens and wood slat ceilings. The kitchen has the most amazing stove in a wonderful pale blue and a wall of subway tiles (a look I keep seeing in photos all over the internet). Dark walls in the living room mixed with leather create a super cool lounge vibe and just outside the antique doors is a terrace with a place for two to enjoy a little breakfast. Love this home!

Have a great weekend!

Inspiration in White: Rustic Table and Food

I have a board for food styling on Pinterest and I really love the look of a rustic style for the table and for the food. I think these food and table pictures are perfect together and give great ideas of how to mix and match vintage plates and for setting the table! The look of a simple, easy table with this beautiful and simple food is so appealing. One of the things I like best about looking at photos of food styling though is the great ideas it can give you for cooking! Yummm..

Interiors: White and Wood

Such an incredible home from The Lettered Cottage I just had to share. The store and house (Check out the on-line store Atchison Home) are situated in one building and I am sure the furniture moves from one to the other rather often. All decorated in white rustic French style, it is really so amazing! Wonderful painted furniture, some left in the original wood color which makes a great contrast. Great tiled floors that provide a nice dark base for all the white and really anchors the entire space. My favourite spot though is the garden room with the metal sink. Love it!

Desert Farmhouse

This Farmhouse in the Sonoran desert is really just the most beautiful place! So much to love here!! This rustic home has so many elegant touches throughout. what about the gorgeous lighting, especially the gold in the bedroom! Warm and wonderful fireplaces in many of the rooms and of course the beamed ceilings. The kitchen is big, with lots of counter room and the most perfect appliances and sink for this farmhouse look. I like the way the tones in this house reflect the desert tones outside as well keeping the feeling of the desert flowing into this amazing home...

At Home in Muskoka

This home on Lake Muskoka in Ontario is nothing short of spectacular! Take a look at the location in the last photo...absolutely stunning! The inside is equally as beautiful, fully done in white with accents from nature...a stone fireplace, rough wood counter top on the kitchen island and a wide plank wood floor. This house may be in the country but the furnishings are very elegant in their lines as is the architecture. The details are fantastic in the ceiling of the living room and the wonderful paneled walls that are different in almost every room. When you look at each photo it is incredible all of the different elements the designer and builder, Muskoka Living, have put into this home right up to the marble on the ceiling of the shower...So well done!

Inspiration in White: Wooden Tables and Chairs

There are so many possible looks when it comes to choosing a table and chairs for the dining room or for the kitchen. Modern or mid-century, vintage or traditional they all look great and add a warmth to these rooms. I have been looking for a chair for my studio and the one in the first photo would be perfect! Such a fun vintage piece that would fit so well at my work table. I especially love the natural wood I am showing in these pictures but painted wood is always beautiful as well. I have a stained top on my wood dining room table, with painted legs so I get the best of both!

Cottage in Cornwall

This beautiful house in Cornwall was designed by photographer Paul Massey. A longtime fashion, news and interiors photographer Paul has recently created some amazing homes himself. What I love the best in this house though is the kitchen design...oh this is really so great! The subway tile all the way to the ceiling looks fantastic, the great finish on the cupboards and the wooden countertop all add up to an inspiring space. The kitchen is open to the living room area which is decorated in a really simple and beautiful way with comfortable, stylish furniture. The whole house feels easy and cozy. Nothing fussy or precious just a really comfortable welcoming space.

Salvage Chic

This country retreat of Paige and Smoot Hull started out as a getaway place near Round Top for the couple. To help with the mortgage they started to rent out their salavage filled home as a vacation rental. Before too long their vacationing clients wanted to purchase items from their home and just like that they became antique dealers. Their home has got the most amazing vintage pieces from screen doors over the fireplace to an old door as a headboard. The memo board is a bed spring and the fan cover over the stove is a metal awning. Super inventive recycling of materials and so well styled inside the home.
