O M G - Best house tour ever!

I don't know how to make your Monday better, because if this house tour doesn't leave you high off the beauty I don't know what will. It is simply gorgeous.

The house is registered for film and photo shoots - so no one actually lives here. Still, it's beautifully done. Seriously, I would consider giving my left hand for this house. And I'm left handed.

An intriguing and whimsical housetour

I'm leaving for my big trip tomorrow - 9 weeks in 11 different countries. I'm freaking out a little -feeling just completely overwhelmed. I'm going to try to post as often as possible - depending on our hotel(s) internet situation - as I'm not bringing my laptop- yikes! I'm already suffering from phantom laptop syndrome. I know I should be posting something traveling related - but I'm just a little too scatter-brained to put anything together - so I'm going with a tried and true house tour.

This home is really different from anything else I've seen before. I think for the most part it somehow manages to avoid being over the top though. What do you think? Too quirky for you?



great wall color!







That painting is the only thing I couldn't really live with

OKA Home Design

I can't remember when or where I discovered OKA, but their website is chock full of pretty pictures in soft gray woods and neutral textiles. They have many stores in the UK and a catalog, but have any of you actually seen their products "in the flesh?" I'd love to know OKA's reputation, quality, and if it's priced reasonably for what you're getting.


I love this quilt, the pattern is beautiful

Definitely has a "shabby chic" feel to it




white floors!

Love the large ottoman
