Decorating with White - Victorian Charm

This San Francisco Victorian style home underwent 10 years of restoration but the effort was definitely worth it! What a beauty.....check out the moldings and the many lovely details in the decor of this home. 

 

Enjoy!

Loving these: Cloches

My house is filled with different glass domes or cloche as we say in French and I really have a lot of fun with them. I put all sorts of things under them from shells to plants and old books and nests. 

This one below is from the table in the shop this past month and I had filled it with vintage silver. I set the table with my ceramics as well.

Beautifully done with the ink and quill.

Pretty with some sheet music rolled inside..


This from Atelier de Campagne. Go visit their Facebook page for great ideas..

  

I am considering buying some for the shop with some pretty wood or mercury glass stands like these below. What do you think?....Isn't the jewellery gorgeous as well??

 

Enjoy!

Interiors: Layers of Grey and White

Related Posts Plugin for WordPress, Blogger...

I have posted about my love for grey before but it is a love affair that continues so I need to share again....grey is not only perfect in the home but I love to wear grey as well. I have so many grey sweaters that my closet looks frankly ridiculous. (does anyone need that many grey sweaters). Grey, black, beige and white....pretty much like my decor. I love the depth of grey and how mixing different greys can look in a room. It is like white in the way that layers of different whites in a room can have so much impact. Take a look at a few spaces layered in grey and a few grey outfits as well....

 Enjoy!

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!

White and Colourful Vintage

I don't normally put homes with a lot of colour in them on my blog but I find this lovely house very inspiring. The white exterior and the all white interior with the colourful vintage furnishings is so pretty and feminine I had to share! I love the use of the pink and turquiose together and the mix of vintage fabrics all with different florals or patterns.

The renovated exterior of this home is so amazing with the balconies all around the house and with those amazing dormer windows. You can see the way the dormers are used in some of the other photos. A big couch sits inside one of them and the big white bed sits in the other making great use of the architecture of the home. You can see there has been a lot of care put into the upkeep and renovation of this home while still keeping its original character and charm.

Interiors: White on White

Simple and chic white on white decorating in this home in England. All of my favorite elements including pops of colour with a mix of vintage, barn and Swedish style. Take a look at the child like art throughout the home that adds a really whimsical element and a touch of humour to each room. When I see a home like this I remember the importance of layering different white and cream colours into the space to ensure you have depth and don't forget about different textures as well.

 

 

Enjoy!

Copper and Light Loft

I simply love this apartment of Tanja Vibe, the owner of a graphic design studio called All the Way to Paris. The simplicity of the loft all in white and the gorgeous pops of colour throughout really speaks to me.....and what about all of the lamps. These copper pendants are amazing and add such great reflection to the room! Perfect...

 

Enjoy!

Vintage Industrial Mix

This former country store was transformed into a very interesting home for this lovely Swedish family since 2008. They loved the fact that it was large, unusual and quirky and I have to agree! So quirky and certainly charming as well. I would say it is still a work in progress but is full of so much potential. They have a wonderful mix of industrial and vintage styles with a lot of Swedish style thrown in which we all know I love!

Enjoy!

Festive Home + Entertaining

I love this video on entertaining from Kinfolk Magazine and West Elm. So pretty and some great recipe ideas as well. (I don't know about you but I have not stopped eating for the past four days!) I have also included some lovely photos from Kinfolk magazine. I love the styling and the photography from this magazine.

Rustic Country Christmas

This creative home has so many interesting displays and uses each element in a new way that Christmas decor never looked so fun! From the hats displayed on the wall in the form of a tree to the framed wreath on the stairway I am inspired to try some of these super ideas in my own home!

Enjoy!
