Beautiful white and wood, vintage inspired home

Happy New Year! I hope your 2012 will be full of inspiration and happy moments! I am kicking off this year with pictures of this beautiful country home in California. I am loving all the wood and covet the hallway and the bathroom in particular. Such a lovely home!

Bath time!

With all the frenzied christmas shopping, decorating, baking etc behind us what we all need now is a little R & R (relaxation & recuperation) before the new year. And, seriously, I'm voting for one of these baths with a roaring fire to keep me cosy.

Oh Deery me!

Hejsan, hejsan! I hope you had a wonderful Christmas? I went home to London with my little family. We stayed near a park with lots of beautiful deer which inspired me for this post. No home would be complete this winter without a deer. I love these 'ideers'. Deery deery me, just lovely! Ok enough...(to many crackers?!).
