welcoming rooms


I was sitting here on my chaise lounge with a blanket, enjoying Irish coffee with hubby and reading (I just started One Day by David Nicholls – very gripping). I was also contemplating what to post. On my mind were cosy and welcoming rooms, rooms that let in light and this is what I found in my inspiration folder.

Now I'm off to check out your blogs. Enjoy the rest of the day!

  3. Boy do I wish we had a home big enough for a 'welcoming room'. Unfortunately here it is just simply the hallway and that keeps all our shoes and coats. Not nearly as neat and welcoming as this :)

    And the cabin was great, we got the painting done and had a lot of great food as always ;)

    Hugs and a happy new week to you!

  5. Well the way you describe it, your home sounds lovely and welcoming. I read One Day and it mirrored my own timeline within a year or so and brought back a lot of memories!
