Early American Colonial interiors that we could still live in today
I grew up in an 18th century farmhouse, and we just went to Annapolis yesterday, so I was feeling inspired to look up some colonial interiors. Here are some gorgeous examples of colonial exteriors and colonial interiors. Some are authentic and others were renovated or new builds made to capture the colonial aesthetic.I love this color palette. It's quiet...
Modern Rustic Inspiration
Growing up on a farm, I feel at home in a rustic interior. That being said, I also like interiors that are uncluttered and have very clean lines. One doesn't easily find a straight line in nature, so in my eyes blending straight, clean lines with natural organic elements is an art form. Here are some interiors that I...
St. Bart’s house tour: cool, crisp Caribbean style.
This house tour will have you packing your bags. It is the home of Keld Mikkelson of Day Birger et Mikkelson and his wife Marianne Brandi. In full disclosure I'd never heard of them, but if their clothing and accessories line are like they're home, I'm sure I'd be a fan. The home is adorned in sleek blacks and...
Beautiful rooms that are eclectic, artisan, and bohemian
I know we see this look around a lot now, but I can't help it - I love it. White kitchen, oriental rug, and clean hardware. Jealous.
I think this would make a great guest room. The amazing plank ceiling, antique bed, and pretty textiles hanging from the ceiling.
How fantastic are the bones of this room? From the moldings to...
We’re loving Greek Revival – see why
Of all the "fancy" styles, Greek Revival is probably my favorite. Granted, it's more of an architectural style than an interior decorating style. I like that while it's grand, it can also feel very intimate through the use of sumptuous fabrics, furniture with gorgeous lines, and pattern.Greek revival is also heavy on moulding, hardwood floors, and well-crafted architectural details,...

A home full of charm, beautiful details, and built-ins!
I love our home, but if I lived in this one I'd be pinching myself every morning to make sure I wasn't still in a dream. This is the Willow House by Kate Marker Interiors.. It's so serene and everything is top-quality craftsmanship. It's also full of built-ins and clever storage solutions. I've filled our closets with adjustable wire shelving,...
Perfectly polished transitional interiors
Traditional interiors with modern appealSince earlier in the week we shared some bohemian design inspiration, I thought we'd contrast that with sharing inspiration from my favorite style, transitional. What I love so much about transitional interiors is the focus on line - usually clean elegant lines that aren't busy or ornate. I also NEED a clutter-free space,...
Modern bohemian interiors
Bohemian home inspirationI hope everyone had a wonderful Labor Day weekend. Here in Maryland we were blessed with beautiful weather! The appeal of Bohemian interiors for me is that they look lived in, and don't rely on being perfect and expensive to look good. I also love mixing textures and infusing elements inspired by nature into my space.via Disc JournalBohemian...
