Mrs S, I provide you with a third decorating scheme, slightly different to the last two, but still in keeping with the general theme ... enjoy my dear x
This kitchen is great - I know I go on about kitchens but they really do make or break a house ... a great place with a skanky kitchen is disastrous ... and vice versa ... ugh.
I love how this u-shaped kitchen wraps around the island ... and the detail of the beams inlaid into the ceiling with those lovely pendants hanging down ... not to mention my favourite tongue and groove topped with that grey slate counter top ... classic country sophistication ...
I really like the proportions of this living room ... I am not completely sold on the floor rug but I really like the dark boards, flat whitest-white paint and those lovely 4x6 windows ...
She uses lots of mangle fabric ... another favourite of mine ... and lovely white linen for slip covers ... always chic.
This room is particularly pretty. Nancy is known for her collections of utilitarian objects, particularly folk art and reclaimed objects to be used in different settings ... chess boards as serving trays is just one example.
I love the styling of this scene ... the doors of this cupboard flung open to display the neat precision of its contents, the casual drape of a vintage quilt, and the giant tub of hydrangea blooming happily in the sunny window ... just gorgeous xx

Very inspiring photos. I love the fireplace too. If the inside of my cupboards looked like that I would have the doors flung open too!

ReplyDeleteLOVE IT EMMA! - god you were meant to do this for a living darling girl!!!
ReplyDeleteThat house is stunning. I do like the floor rug though, and I will have a bucket of Hydrangeas to go thanks.
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful images, Love the simple design of each room!!
ReplyDeleteThe exterior photo and the kitchen photo alone were enough to make me wonder if I could move back to the midwest. I'm craving architectural elements! Beautiful...as always.

ReplyDeleteit's all pretty dreamy. But, yes, I'd happily move into the linen closet.
