Yes…Yes…Yes!

The red/orange accent color used in the craft room really POPS. A color choice I wouldn’t have considered, but now I know it would have been my loss.

I love all three of these spaces. It’s hard to pick a favorite but I always try! I think it’s that pretty porch. It just looks like the perfect place to relax.

I ALWAYS love your posts!!!!!!!! I get on and check them every morning! I loved the cottage kitchen-it is so me! I am also a Southern Living rep, so your posts always inspire me, and give me some great ideas for my next shows-Thank You!!!!!!
Thank you so much Jillian!!!
I love the kitchen and am looking for a small island like that one. Thanks for the inspiration.
.-= Jean´s last blog ..I am featured today on Tip Junkie! =-.
I love the idea of a special little place to unwind and curl up with a good read. I always remember one celebrity house that was featured and the lady had a “flower room” … just her own pretty little space to entertain friends or snuggle on a recliner to read her mags. Would love a little “flower room” too :) Sigh!!! Nice to dream.
I love the kitchen!

I would love a porch like that. Maybe someday.

Love the lighting in the kitchen – urgently need lights for my own kitchen but the ceiling is too low for that style!
.-= Sarah @ Natural History (and Passementerie!)´s last blog ..Striped Rugs Galore =-.
I love all these inspiration photos! I just hung pendant lights over my island in the kitchen…i’m trying for a cozy cottage kitchen. It’s getting there.
.-= Pink and Polka Dot´s last blog ..Kitchen Lights =-.
Wonderful wall color in that craft room! Are those plate racks right over the kitchen windows? Wonder what that looks like from outside and I wonder how windows are washed. Hmmmm…
.-= Vee´s last blog ..Memorial Day 2010 =-.
My fav is the place to kick off your shoes….that is totally my style!!!
Oooh, I’d take any of the three, but right now I think that fabulous sun porch takes the prize! Bliss : )!

I love the craft room – fun and tidy!

You’re right. I could move right into each one of those rooms and not have to touch a thing.

I couldn’t agree with you more, on all 3! (But *especially* loving #1 and 2… <3 <3)

I would just live in that sun room. Sigh.
I want all three of those rooms duplicated and put in my home! Dreamy.
