~is this your house?~

 Good morning bloggy friends!
yay it's the weekend!!!


I'm so glad.....we are in need
of some serious relaxation around here!

well, I found these images
somewhere
recently ~ but forgot to add the
source to my file....whoops....

so, I ask.....
is this your beautiful kitchen??




 is this your cute little clawfoot tub
against a stone wall?


or your cute antique daybed
covered with vintage linens?
against a stone wall???
~sigh~



are you the very lucky owner
of these gorgeous french chairs
with the fabulous aged patina??



with this amazing kitchen .....


filled with
travertine, chippy painted tables,
chandeliers...


is this your
 porch .....that beckons to all...
come and relax....


lovely.....


I don't believe I would ever tire
of such a place.....
how about you??

I would never tire of the view....
the hedge out back....
or sitting on this bench...reading a book....




does this beautiful home belong to you?

is this your fantastic view??


and can we come by for a cup of tea?
and sit in the sunshine?


xoxo,



Shellagh

Oh-I want to visit this person and sit on their patio with a cuppa coffee (Starbucks, please;>)
The images are lovely. Don't you hate when you find something and then misplace the source? Well, hopefully someone will recognize this beautiful home. Diana

Privet and Holly said...

Wish I was on my
own computer instead
of the library so I
could save EVERY one
of these images for
my decorating file!
Just I M A G I N E !!
The views almost
remind me of Palm
Springs, CA....
Hope all is well
in Vancouver, USA,
sweet friend!

PS: Had to MAKE
pillow inserts for
your divine covers;
the ones at the store
were all made in China!
So worth it though ~
they look great : )

Oops, excuse me. I have to stop and clean the drool off of my keyboard. This is so beautiful and comforting. I don't know how people do this. I try, but my style is too tidy. I know that we are all different, but if I could just be in this mystery person's mind for one day it would be so cool! Lisa~

I would love a kitchen like this, the space, the light, the way it's furnished. Everything speaks to me, practically perfect actually.

I do have a white kitchen and it does have 2 chandeliers, chippy paint and pretty things, but I do NOT have chairs like those.... love them!

I visited the blog oh a couple of months ago and was so taken with the rooms I had to return day after day to refresh my soul!

Shellagh thank you for doing me in again with Pauline's beautiful home! It was bad enough that I cannot sleep and decided just to look around and you had to have this posted, now I really cannot sleep!! :)

Well off to bed for sweet dreams of South Africa :)

Henna @ AboutCabinets Blog said...

its a beautiful house and a beautiful kitchen, white is my favorite color and they way it has been incorporated in the kitchen is just too good, the white cabinets and the shelves for the jars and bottles give a very calm and pleasent aura to the kitchen, i like the way you have done it
