Less Is More...

I love these images and how they exude timeless simplicity!
























Just looking at them makes me want to slow down and take in the moment, which I desperately need this time of year.

Wishing you all the best!

Restoring...

I can't think of anything more magical than bringing a home that has so much history back to life - especially in Provence:






















Wishing you a wonderful week!

Yes Please!!!

Oh my oh my... I think I just found the most beautiful Hotel I have EVER seen!!!  
I have always dreamed of going to Tuscany but haven't found a place that beckoned me.   
Check out this incredible Hotel located in the heart of Tuscany called Hotel Monteverdi!
The website has more beautiful photos and allows you to read up on its history!














































Yes please... I'm down!!!
Who's hooked?!

Simple And Quaint...

This home is so simple and charming and the light tones help the home feel larger!  
I have been helping a couple of clients remodel their homes as of late.  These homes have floor to ceiling dark stained wood and they can't seem to get themselves to paint the wood (the males haha).  They do complain about how heavy and dark their homes are - especially the wives.   When wood is painted, the energy of the wood still comes through the paint.  The Scandinavians/French have been doing it for hundreds of years and when balanced - leaving a little stained wood here and there, it will lighten the mood of the home.















I love how the white paint is the perfect canvas for all her charming vintage pieces.
Notice the last image - if all the wood was stained dark, we wouldn't even notice her sweet table.
It's all about balance!

I hope your enjoying the Holidays!
