Sunday Charm: Dreaming in pink

I have always dreamed of a house with all pink walls. When I spotted this gorgeous space with pink plaster walls. These are the things I enjoy doing on a lazy Sunday morning in bed. I’m cozy in my sheets, coffee in hand, dreaming of what breakfast would be like in this beautiful space.

My eyes are immediately drawn to the emerald green bentwood chairs against the blush plaster walls. I also love that the plaster walls allow the rest of the space to be imperfect. In today’s modern world with modern design, things are always looking clean and perfect. Sometimes I just feel drawn to a beautiful mess. Open shelving with mismatching things, exposed mismatched light bulbs, rough exposed wood. It’s all so charming.

The other aspect of this space that tugs at my heart is the copper pots and pans in the kitchen. Copper and pink are such a beautiful mix in a country kitchen like this, no???

Hope you are enjoying your Sunday. Sit back, relax and enjoy this space. . .

My favorite wall colors from the new Farrow & Ball collection

Oh how I love a good wall color. Farrow + Ball is one of my favorite paint companies. Not only is the paint is 100 per cent water-based range, the new collection will be low odor, eco-friendly, safe and easy to use and available in a range of finishes. It’s also incredibly easy to paint with. I have painted rooms myself in F+B and it goes on the wall so beautifully.

Since they don’t put out new colors very often, I am always eager to see what they come up with. This year, not so many grays but more beautiful muted colors. My favorites are on trend with a soft pink and deep olive green.

BANCHA 298: This mid-century modern green is named after Japanese tea leaves, it provides a feeling of security.

Now for non-color, colors, I love the following off shade of white, its just so gorgeous. It sort of reminds me of a vintage white, which is much more calming and cozy than some of the bright white we see lately in the more modern spaces. I love the feeling of nostalgia.

SCHOOL HOUSE WHITE 291: The lightest in the group, this soft white is reminiscent of the color used in school houses.

We all know how much I love my black walls. This one is absolutely gorgeous, black without leaning towards dark grey or navy like some can be. This is a soft, simple and beautiful classic black.

PAEAN BLACK 294: This Georgian inspired red based black is a nod to the color of old leather hymnals which so often included a song of praise or paean.
