Great dog, amazing color scheme, dreamy sofa. The rug is the perfect accent.

Can't go wrong with grey and a hint of blue, mustard, or violet. I'm especially loving the lamp in the bottom right corner. Click here to see a full view of this image, the shade is gorgeous and I really like the chairs slipcovered in a variety of patterns and colors.

Dreamy bookcase, blogged here before. The chair by Squint
looks great paired with the oriental rug.

Combing unexpected patterns can often lead to amazing results.
Or you can stick to a white or grey color scheme for equally beautiful spaces.

Nothing beats stacking wood like this into an unused fireplace. This is especially great for the fireplaces that have been filled in and cannot be used. If your fireplace is not deep, you can take wood from the forest and saw logs into thick slices and stack them in a similar fashion to give the appearance of having a deep fireplace. If you're creative, you can even draw them on white paper and loosely tape over the filled in space - pretty!

Emerald green looks really nice in this space, especially with the white table, there's a nice balance here of light and dark. The art display is stunning! I also like the dining room image in bottom right corner, the simple shelving unit is arranged so nicely using magazine files for storage and patterned binders that coordinate.

A living room that reminds me of a Coastal cottage space, a vintage bench reused as a coffee table is a smart choice because it doubles as seating, and the patina gives it warmth and a sense of history. The floral pillows on the sofa blend nicely with the flowers, apple, book imagery, and vases on the bench. Very simple accents, high impact.

These rooms are relaxed and comfortable. More wood stacked in a fireplace.
Comfy sofas, pretty stools, pastel-y hued walls. So feminine and zen-like.

This sofa is killer. The color is one I would have never guessed that I would love, but I do.
It looks like tweed, doesn't it? And the wallpaper is so mesmerizing.

Another relaxing space and though I'm not a leather chair lover,
I could get used to this one next to a warm crackling fire in the winter.

And finally, this very folksy dining room with a green cabinet that you love the longer you look at it - it seems to have some history to it, maybe it once stood in a old drug store. I really like the curtains, painting, and the soft green hues - but I'd replace the chairs and chandelier immediately with something more modern with cleaner lines - everything is a bit too country for me.
