Have You Learned How To Live?

 

My plans for the afternoon :)

Stella McCartney's Georgian Manor Country House

 

 

It's all gorgeous, isn't it? Stella says she's never bought a house that wasn't falling apart. I love that statement, don't you? I can really relate! Her home has been featured in Vogue twice; see more photos and a small writeup here.

Take Your Desk Outside This Summer

If my desk were here I would get absolutely nothing done besides daydreaming. Curious? See more of this wonderful house in Croatia here. Wait a few seconds for the full-screen slideshow to begin.

Welcome Home

I love this house, don't you? There's nothing like a center hall colonial with a white picket fence in my book. This one looks like the perfect size, not too big. I love driving around looking at beautiful houses. See you later.

Best Outdoor Shower

Outdoor showers are an ongoing theme of mine. Isn't this one the best you've ever seen? Nothing says summer like bathing outdoors.

Doggie version.

Before Buying That Island House

you'd better check to see what's under the water.  

DIY Book Lover's Library in France

Wow. This is every book collector's dream. It's a French Country House Library constructed from 60 Billy / Benno Bookcases from Ikea. How wonderful. Lots of pictures and text showing the project start to finish with instructions HERE. View a slideshow on Flickr with really large photos here. I'm impressed, aren't you?
