Barn Living

Check out this open barn style house in Cotswald England. I love that there is no clutter and very simple furnishings and decoration (so unlike my home which is full of furniture!) all in wood and white. Gorgeous high ceilings and windows let the natural light flow into the space and allow for great views of the surrounding countryside. What do you think? Would you like to live in a space like this?

 

Enjoy!

Barn Lamps

I am loving the look of barn lamps just about anywhere in a home (yes I have mentioned this before in another post).  I am seeing these everywhere in photos and this week I found some at a dealer I work with here in Montreal! I picked up four of them to sell and they are beauties! Take a look at some shots I love with barn lamps.

The ones I bought are just like this.

Have a great weekend!

Barn Style

I was recently looking for Barn Lights to use for a project I am working on and as I was doing my research I came across some of the most beautiful pictures of Barn Style homes! It is such an easy, relaxed style and even if you don't have the high ceilings or open spaces that is traditional barn style, you can still get the look by adding a sliding barn door and or barn lamps (I love these) to a kitchen or office (the office below if so cool with the black lamps!). Let me know what you think of this style. I would love to hear your comments!

Enjoy!

Dutch Barn Style!

Here is a more chic, modern version of Barn Style.

These lights over the desk are perfect. Stylizimo

I suppose you could call this Wedding Barn Style? The lights made from galvanized wash buckets really make this so fun.

So sophisticated...

 

What can I say? So chic.
