~country charm & european elegance~

For about 10 years now, I have held onto 5 torn pages from Country Home magazine....I look at them over and over again.....it is the darling cottage of Sue Balmforth, owner of a store called Bountiful.  She doesn't live in the adorable cottage any longer...sadly because they couldn't give me the pale pinkish paint color shown here...is it not so beautiful?

I have one pretty blurry picture of her bedroom.....

Lovely isn't it? Love the urn with the bacopa...

I thought all of you might enjoy a small sampling of her style...

Ok...red and white toile with slipcovers....be still my beating heart...

~urn love~

This year I must plant paper whites in time for Christmas!  Anyone out there had success with this?

I might be able to fit my clothes in here........

dreamy....love the blue!? although I would never think to add the dark shade....

Would love to do this for a vanity!  Actually this sort of idea is on my to-do list when I'm ready to remodel our upstairs main bathroom.  (of course after hubby goes to work....see 10 honest things about me :-) )

why is this picture so fabulous? why do I love it so?  It's so good to know that there are so many of you out there that have my same disorder...;-)

That's a little taste....See you next time!
