Today I Love...







Hello again. How was your weekend?? Mine was lovely thank you...very quite and restful...just what I needed after a hectic week last week. This week we have Felicity back on Wednesday with a lovely post so stay tuned for that. Thank you so much for welcoming her at ABT with all of your lovely comments last week!!

Today I love these three images which I recently added to my I Love Files. What do I love about these images you may ask? In the top image I love all the colourful pretty plates and of course I love the flowers. In the middle image I love the round buttoned ottoman with the box pleated skirt and I love the concept of that bed for a child's room. In the last image I love the natural linen tablecloth and the piles of books and the blue and white jar with the fresh flowers. Actually just looking back at these images now - do you notice something else?? Yes, they all have a little bit of blue and white...mmm I am turning into my mother!!

I hope your week has started with lots of happy thoughts!! See you tomorrow.

How wonderful would it be to have a cozy spot like that bed in the 2nd photo?! I immediately imagined curling up with a good book. :)

The House That A-M Built said...

Oh that gorgeous children's bed design was what we had originally planned in our first set of plans for "the house that we could not afford to build"....back to the drawing board and a more modest design.. I can still dream with your lovely picture! A-M xx

I just came by for the first time...I think we have something of the same style. Looking forward to seeing more.

I love the bed. I would love to have something like that even as an adult! It reminds me of this place my family used to go when I was younger up in Michigan. It had cabins, and the bed I slept in was in a nook like that.

Love the bed! I think what I like the most is the V-groove paneling in that room. I have a thing for V-groove. Very pretty images all and all.:)

Julia said...

I too LOVE that kitchen! The second pic is really fun, but a pain in the butt to make that bed! And the third is perfect!

I love the idea of the bed in the window! So cozy! I feel like hopping right in there with a cup of tea!

i love the bed! i wish that were my bedroom. at my grandparents house, they have a similar bed built into one of the walls. very cool!

Velvet and Linen said...

What a wonderful bed nook!
Such a cozy place to sleep.
I love the extra book storage above.
The natural linen tablecloth is lovely.
The trim adds a refinement to the more rustic fabric.
As always, you have wonderful taste
