That nursery is fab-u-lous. I didn't even realize it was a nursery until I saw the crib and rocking horse! Is that daybed not stuff dreams are made of?! <span style="font-style: italic;">That fabric!!</span> I also included images from the living room. I'm normally a fan of bright colors, but I <span style="font-style: italic;">love</span> this room. That window seat is calling my name!

It's a total show-stopper in that otherwise white room. I can't think of a better way to show-off her fantastic collection of antique jars, pitchers and grain sacks! The chicken wire is so perfect too! The antique cabinet was actually this color when she bought it, but one side of it wasn't painted so she had it color matched. I love that she painted the inside a subtle gray...I <span style="font-style: italic;">love</span> blue and gray!

<div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://cptnrin.smugmug.com/photos/933757450_CbdiF-O.jpg" /><br /></div>I just love this photo and the peek into the bedroom styled by <a href="http://www.oakmanagement.co.uk/" target="_blank">Sally Denning</a>, former Style Director of <a href="http://www.idealhomemagazine.co.uk/" target="_blank">Ideal Home</a> magazine. Boy do those colors pop on that all-white canvas. I wish I could fill my home with white floors like this. I'm sure it would look this clean...um...try never, due to the dog. But I can dream! Love the b&w cat too...that's my kind of styling!
