A gorgeous kitchen in the palest grey

Posted in Kitchens, Uncategorized

I’m very aware that I’ve been posting a lot of kitchens lately- I use my blog as a file of interiors that I love that I might want to look back on later so I post them as I find them! In particular I’m always drawn to stylish yet functional family spaces that are not all high-end and unattainable.

I love a mix of expensive elements and things that anybody can achieve - as well as a mix of styles. This kitchen pairs marble and stainless steel with Ikea stools and a vintage french-style bench, which just adds that extra ‘something’ that makes it interesting and beautiful.

Open shelving is really practical for families (above), and a mix of chairs makes for comfortable seating for everyone (below).

Grey and white dream kitchen

Posted in beautiful blue, grey, Kitchens

How gorgeous is this kitchen/living room? Anyone who knows me knows that dark grey/blue is my all-time favourite colour, so this colour scheme is pretty much bang on the money for me. For a small open-plan living space I think this arrangement is fantastic, especially the little office nook in the kitchen for all the school paperwork and bills! What makes it for me is the dark grey walls paired with the white floor and kitchen, and the way the geometric rug plays off against the traditional pattern of the drapery. The small marble subway tiles as a splashback are also great. I love this!

Gorgeous wallpapered kitchen

It’s so nice being on school holidays and being able to sit up late reading magazines without having the getting-ready-for-school-rush in the morning. I came across this pic from Skona Hem magazine which really captures my imagination. What a gorgeous little kitchen! I like the idea of a modern white kitchen with a detailed and almost feminine wallpaper.

Feeling Inspired!

Posted in Celebrations, fabrics, pink, purple

I’ve just been visiting a great blog, Plain & Fancy Living, and came across some fabulous images of Christmas decorating that are so inspiring! This is the home of designer Meredith Heron as featured on HGTV Canada:

What a beautiful room! Love the palette of neutrals, pinks, greys and pale purple. Of course the trellis fabric on the chairs is a favourite! The wall of pictures and the baubles on the silver platter look fantastic.
