Whitewashed…


ww3
Everyone knows that I am a colour lover, BUT, there is something about this space that I am calling whitewashed that resonates with me. Could it be the beauty that results from the natural light bouncing off the white walls and reflecting on the whitewashed floors?

ww
Or maybe it is the contrast brought about from the use of the light hued furniture and accessories? I see my favourite Italian coffemaker too. I am loving this home more and more!

Some serious sunbathing could take place in front of these windows! Love, love it all!

This is the kind of home where one would expect to see lots of books. They did not disappoint…

Thanks for sharing in my obsessions and Happy Monday! XX

Gorgeous!!! I have a friend that wants a completely white room. I couldn't do it since I have a black cat :)

While I like a pop of color here and there, I prefer to live in mostly white. I think it's because it gets so darn hot here in Phoenix, white walls and surroundings feel cooler.
I also mostly only wear black or white. Perhaps I don't like color as much as I thought :)

Oh I love this look. If I had no kids or dogs this would be how bright and white my place would be.

Hi Stacey,

Love all the white, and all your fabulous pictures, especially the white floor boards.
We are just in the process of giving our lounge a makeover - I want to do white floors.

Have a lovely week
Hugs

Oh, how lovely to see a message from you! So nice to reconnect! This posting is gorgeous... so summery! I love it (even though like you I like color, well, earth tones at least!)

Hi Stacey,
well, you had me at white... I Love having white in the house, and if I could, I would make my floors just like that, but it's not my own here, so lurking around the net is the next best thing, thanks for the fix!
Hope all is good with your 2 little men? Have a good week,

A nice clean look using white.....Id like to invite everyone to a post I've just published honoring the TV show "Big Valley", and also actor Peter Breck. Included with this post are 2 personal recipes that was sent to me by Peters wife Diane, so please stop by and say hello and share your memories of this classic TV show. Richard
