Au revoir my friends..

See this ?Airy Country House ...

see this farmhouse? how pretty is it covered in sheer curtains ? but wait , lets look inside first!!
welcome to the living room. what can I say about it? such a chic space , very airy and light . I could definetly relax in there .. see the blue chairs ? they are covered in velvet & organza slipcovers.. how amazing is that? the dinning room , with its The Scandinavian tradition of painted floors the country style kitchen , my I would die for the space in this kitchen!

my favorite part: the vintage buffet!!

her girl's room..

an old church window brought in for a touch of scandanavian style

some treats she always have on the tables for guests , as she loves to throw parties and gatherings..

meet Carrie , who knows how to style her home in the way she & her family feel most comfortable in..

now , where do I start?

Farmhouse Style..

pattern of wall paper, color of linen and warmth of wood

An antique cow poster & worn stoneware, flatware, and enamelware

apron-front sink with toile skirt, old antique cabinets

iron bed with vintage floral bed linens

laundry room set with vintage teacups and assorted storage baskets arrayed in neat rows

pine floor , wood moldings , pretty cabinet and covered sofa all linked to farmhouse chic

subdued palette of color , and heirloom linens

reclaimed barn wood cabinet in the kitchen , showcases a collection of blue and white dishware.

the faucet is an iron hand pump that dates to the late 1800s; Filtering light from the window is a curtain that's actually a dishtowel edged in crocheted hens and chicks.

Kitchen Trinkets..

Storage solved..

I was never sure on how to store my books & knick knacks , since our home is almost all open space , the living room flows into the kitchen flows into thedinning room which flows into my corner which I call my Studio.. hubby wants furniture pieces that are not just Shelving ( a.k.a ikea..sorry ! ) .. he wants furniture that tells stories. I couldn't agree more , though I was ok with the idea of shelving from Ikea , cz I have Sooo much clutter & books!! ..

But look at this!! this just solved it! I love how they combined the vintage cupboards for storage and each one is different yet fits so well !!
