One of my favorites of 2010 was this Arkansas home designed by <a href="http://tobifairley.com/portfolio/leawood/" target="_blank">Tobi Fairley</a>. I've already shared images from the home, including this breakfast room with you <a href="http://www.houseofturquoise.com/2010/02/all-about-blue-with-house-beautiful.html" target="_blank">before</a> (how could you forget the <a href="http://marjorieskourasdesign.com/products/#Page%2011" target="_blank">Marjorie Skouras</a> chandelier!) but I was excited to find more images of the kitchen in Tobi's portfolio. The painted hardwood floors are absolutely fab-u-lous! (They're painted <a href="http://www.houseofturquoise.com/search/label/Wythe%20Blue" target="_blank">Wythe Blue</a> by Benjamin Moore and Wool Skein by Sherwin-Williams.) The result is playful and unique, but the perfect color selections make the room beautifully serene too.<span style="font-style: italic;"> LOVE! </span>

Swedish Kitchen

<div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://cptnrin.smugmug.com/photos/1145309543_Ty7pi-O.jpg" /></div><br /><div style="text-align: left;">Happy New Year!! I can't believe it's 2011. Wow! I thought I'd start off the year with this cool Swedish kitchen I spotted on <a href="http://scandinavianretreat.blogspot.com/2010/08/summer-house-in-skane.html" target="_blank">My Scandinavian Retreat</a>. One of the owners of this vacation home work for Ikea, so pretty much everything you see comes from the store. I love how they painted the <a href="http://www.ikea.com/us/en/search/?query=ingolf+bar+stool+backrest" target="_blank">Ingolf</a> chairs turquoise. (Why don't I ever think to do that?) Head on over at <a href="http://www.husohem.se/Hem/Villa/osterlen-pa-franska/#" target="_blank">Hus & Hem</a> to see more of this summer home!<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Oh summer...why'd I have to say that word...</span><br /></div>
