I don’t
consider myself a country girl,
but I do
love a few rustic elements
thrown
into my home to add
a lived-in
and homey vibe.
How special is that dutch door?
It sets the tone for the whole house.
In this dining space,
it’s all
about the rustic quality of the farm table,
the
floors, the hutch. It’s all stripped down and bare,
but there's an elegance to all this.
No rug. No
Fabrics.
Just the
beauty of the wood coming through.
Country décor
can be elevated
to
something spectacular.
A home in
the country,
designed
with the mindset of
a
sophisticated city dweller.
The yin and yang of décor…
Country pieces mixed with
high-style classic elements.
Opposite design elements that somehow
complement each other is what I’m talking about.
Like the old saying from Donny and Marie:
"A little bit country
and a little bit rock n roll!"
Do you
have any favorite country pieces in your home?
I know I
do!
Actually, I have several.
We have a few lovely family heirlooms,
and I guess the one that stands out the most is
the fabulous antique round pine table.
It's got a nice thick pine top with a lovely patina,
and cute and simple slipper feet.
It's so wonderful during the holdays
because we add the three large leaves
and the whole family fits at one table!
