The Country Kitchen

Every since I was a little girl I have wanted a house in the country. The main attraction was so I could have a big, old fashioned country kitchen to bake in. I had visions of me in an apron baking scones, cakes and pies and making homemade jams for a hungry family. These kitchens fit my dream just perfectly!

The Country Retreat

 

One of best girlfriend's just bought a gorgeous old country house. A weekend retreat, a place to escape city life and unwind. It sits on 37 acres so there's plenty of space for her two little girls to explore, play and run around in the fresh air.  

There’s nothing more relaxing than a weekend in the country!

Country Style Pinterest

 

  

I have jumped on the bandwagon and joined many of my fellow bloggers with having a bit of fun on Pinterest. I can tell you once you get going it's very addictive! It's a great place to collect ideas and find some inspiration. I have set up some social media buttons in my side bar so with a click off a button you can pop over to see what's new on my Country Style Pinterest board!

Fresh Beginnings

With a new season upon us I am in the mood for something fresh and new so I have set up a tumblr blog which will have a collection of my favourite inspirational images on chic country style. The gorgeous header was designed by Carolyn from Carolyn V Design - it's pretty and fresh and perfectly suits a blog on stylish country living. Check it out here:- 'Country Style Chic' or use the green 'Tumblr' button under 'Follow Along' on my side bar. I hope you enjoy all this loveliness found in the country!

Vintage Florals

For me, one of the most romantic visions of country living is country florals and quilted eiderdowns. I love the idea of French Amoires and old fashioned cupboards brimming with crisply laundered bedlinen, fluffy eiderdowns and patchwork quilts in assorted colours and patterns. Enjoy your day!

The White Bathroom

White is the ultimate in colour purity. Fresh, clean, pure and simple are all words that come to mind when describing all white interiors, particularly when used in a bathroom. White is soft, subtle and relaxed and works beautifully in all of these bathrooms. Their common thread is that they all possess lovely attention to detail :- the claw foot bath, the vintage chandelier and traditional tapware all add character and interest to these inspiring spaces.
