Ethereal…

Tuesday 12 July 2011

White seems to have made a big appearance this summer so I thought I would jump on the bandwagon and post some of my favourite white goodies. I must admit that white is not a colour that features hugely in my home - not because I don’t like it - it just tends to act as a homing beacon for things like wine, coffee, chocolate and tomato sauce. So I have purposely chosen things that could probably survive a couple of months in our house, well except for the lace tablecloth, that was just pure wishful thinking!

  1. I love white for the home. It just makes the room brighter, cleaner and more airy. I like it in the bedroom. White sheets make me feel happy.

  2. I'm rethinking a white palette for my walls in my house! It seems so fresh and clean looking.

  16. I can't wait to have a place of my own to decorate! My room at the moment is mainly white so I assume I will continue to decorate in white. I love the teacup lamp!

  17. I'm so drawn to white, sometimes i have to remind myself to add color :) That mug is adorable, and that Zara Home frame makes me sad we don't have Zara Home in the US!

  18. i saw that mug and actually said a, "ohh, ahhh" in my head :) it's fun simplicity. i prefer whites with shades of gray or tan... love what you've found though, when i got married i registered for crisp and clean standard white plates and bowls

    and about the whales: i want to go to south africa to see the great white sharks breach!

  19. Love the cushion and the lanterns! It's funny because I don't have much white in my home either (maybe it's because we had a black lab that sheds like crazy) but I have a ton of dishes and serving platters in white - such a beautiful basic that works year round!

  20. Love the pillow and mug! So cute. I can't decide if my dream house would be decorated all white and neutrals or in bright colors with white accents and small furniture pieces mixed in.
