monday...monday...

Hello friends. Hope you had a lovely weekend. I am enjoying my "weekend" today as I worked all weekend and will work the next couple days so I can be off for a quick trip to Charleston. My little brother is getting married and we are heading down to be a part of the wedding weekend! I am so looking forward to spending time with family and enjoying Charleston for a few days. I can't wait.

Any who, I was thinking the other day that I have gotten away from interior design posts lately. Interior design is really where my heart lies and I feel like I should get back to it. So, I thought I would start back with one of my favorite inspirations- the color white. So fresh and crisp, you really can't go wrong.

Clockwise from top left:
Room One- I love the floor to ceiling white cabinetry. I know I usually sing the praises of open shelving in kitchens but I really like the top cabinets in this instance! And those rustic wood floors are beautiful. Along with the huge island in a different wood tone- its a perfect combination.

Room Two- This little bedroom is so simple yet so charming. I love the exposed white slat and beam ceiling. Fresh white linens + mosquito net (which can look tacky 99% of the time but is elegantly done here) make for an inviting spot to rest your head. And you can find look-a-like natural wood lamp at Target here.

Room Three- I really like the wainscoting on the wall behind the bed. Makes for some understated visual interest. That bed looks so comfortable and is perfect paired with the single contrasting pillow.

Room Four- Where to start? The herringbone wood floors, white cabinetry, subway tile, open shelving, or the dark stained butcher block counter top? Each detail is beautiful.

Happy Monday!

Thanks for all your kind comments about my gallery wall!  It is so nice to get such positive feedback :)

Hope you had a lovely weekend.  Mine was spent planting flowers and enjoying the amazing weather.  It seems I can't spend enough time outdoors these days!  I am so glad Spring is officially upon us.

Happy Tuesday!

calm + clean.

I am quite fond of white spaces lately.  They feel so clean and fresh.  I am particularly in love with this bathroom (above).  It was featured in the latest issue of House Beautiful and I absolutely adore all the vintage details.

understated.

This understated white kitchen is beautiful.  I love the vintage accents, open shelving, and the contrast between the stark white cabinetry and the dark hardwood floors.  Absolutely perfect.

branches.

I love the natural element the blooming branches brings to each of these rooms.  When I finally find the right piece of furniture to use as an entertainment stand, I think I will add some blooming branches in a vase on top of it.  It will add some interest to the large wall in my apartment.  Maybe it will distract from my hunker of an old school television too :)

monday...monday...

Whew! I know this sounds crazy but thank goodness it is Monday! I just finished working four 12-hour shifts in a row at the hospital and I am pretty beat. Today is a much needed day of rest and relaxation!

Hope these soothing spaces to bring some calm to your Monday!
