Vintage: Pastel and Cream

This lovely Victorian cottage is decked out in old pinks, vintage treasures and draped in gorgeous light from the tall windows. Each room has so many unusual and interesting finds that I can not stop looking at the details to see how this effortless styling was created. Some of my favourite parts of this home are the slipper pink chair in the sitting room, the tall lamps on either side of the mirror and the bed in the child's room! So different and fun for a kids room don't you think?

Enjoy!

Interiors: Brooklyn Loft

This loft in the center of Brooklyn was once an old rundown factory but this couple could easily see the potential through the dust and rugged finishing. They incorporated their furniture from Sweden and London mixing with buys from New York. The result is very fun, clean and eclectic set against white walls and the background of the city. Well done!

Enjoy!

White Beachy Cottage

This adorable cottage looks like it should be on the beach with trails of sand coming in on wet feet! White from floor to ceiling with touches of colour the house has a wonderful relaxed feeling. Things I am loving are the simple sheet thrown over the couch as a slip-cover, the gorgeous beamed ceiling and the pretty grouping of mirrors on one wall and antlers on the other! The kitchen is great with rough wood cupboard doors and open shelving over the counters. Really just perfect..

Enjoy!

Inspiration in White - Baskets

There are so many ways to use beautiful and interesting shaped baskets around the house. I just got some new Market Baskets in the shop and I just love all of the different ways you can use them or any basket for that matter. Great for firewood, pillows and extra throws, flowers or for really going to the market (much nicer looking than another recycled bag!). Take a look at some of the inspirations for how to use baskets in your home and go check out the new market baskets at the shop (basket below is in the shop)!

Interiors: White Rooms

The gorgeous home (from the latest issue of Est Magazine) of architect and designer Eva van Dongen and Freek Tromp, was once inhabited by two notorious doyennes of the red light district in Amsterdam. No signs of its history is evident in these beautiful and spare rooms filled with light. White furnishings and walls contrast the wide planked dark floors to great effect. What a lovely peaceful space for this young family..

Danish Style

This cool loft in Copenhagen really sums up the Danish style for me. Clean lines, natural materials, modern but still with a warmth that comes through the textures used throughout the loft. Really gorgeous..

Inspiration in White: Olive Trees & Myrtles

I am not a person that has a lot of house plants in my home but I do love the look of olive trees and myrtles in decor. I am always finding photos that inspire me and they often have one of these plants in among the vintage decor. I do have a couple of myrtles in my home and since I find them so beautiful I thought I would share a few....

Enjoy!

Neutral Territory from Lonny Magazine

This month Lonny has a wonderful spread on the home of antique dealer Kaye O Toole. Each day as I look at all of the beautiful white homes I put on my blog I am constantly reminded of why I love white decor so much and this home does it again. It is very neutral in tone but it is the combination of many whites, creams, greys and pale blues that gives it such warmth and texture. The furniture and accessories throughout the home are just exquisite and unusual, collected over time. Kaye lives steps away from her antique store which I will show a bit of tomorrow. I love her kitchen with the white jars on the island and her bedroom with the incredible canopy bed looks so romantic and comfortable. Just a lovely, inspiring home..

Enjoy!

A Delightsome Life, From My Front Porch to Yours

Post brought to you by Rooms Furniture and Interiors. All opinions are mine

White Home Decor: Modern Meets Rustic

This is one of those fabulous houses that has so many great elements I don't know where to start. How about the wall of white ironstone and glass! I love that so many pieces are oversized and command attention in the room. The mix of rustic with modern is well blended with the very rough coffee table in the living room and very clean lined closets in the dining room. Beautifully decorated....

Enjoy!

Shabby Sophistication

This Danish home has been renovated to fine perfection but maintains many of its original features such as the stove in the dining room. The Swedish folding table has been painted white and adds just the right amount of shabby to the otherwise sophisticated dining room. Frames leaning on the floor keep this decor from being too serious....

Enjoy!
