What I love about being invited into people's homes is the glimpse it gives into their lives. People don't live in a showroom, we live in spaces that are reflections of our personalities. Each story begins at the curb providing an indication of what types of personalities live just beyond the front door.
The environment inside and out tells the home owner's story. Some homes are neat and tidy, others are not. Some people enjoy collections and others lean toward no-fuss minimalism. There are people who use vibrant colors liberally while others prefer neutrals. Whatever the drama of the style involved, the home is a window into the lives of those who live there.
I invite you to peruse the collection of photos from google and pinterest that have inspired me to get out of my 'clean lines' and add a bit of 'romance' to our home. Each photo was chosen to demonstrate how the mixing of textures or the addition of fresh botanicals adds warmth and a hint of romance to the spaces photographed. If the gallery that follows inspires you to make a change (even a miniscule one) that adds a bit of your own personality to your home... then it has done its job.
A glimpse into the homes and personalities of others is a privilege. Tread lightly and enjoy!
Have a blessed day! :)
