Farmhouse Styling

Farmhouse Styling

I will admit, I love country/farmhouse style.  It feels so inviting to me.  I like that parred down country look, (I should clarify) it is less fussy-stuffy, more homemade.  Eclectic.  I like how things tell stories, or used to belong to your grandpa...  So when I saw this image from Country Living I had to share! (and a few more from the same post.)

I love the bookshelves with the ladder (a want something like this is my dream home!) 
 And did you notice the wide pine floors?  

I love the natural, chippy-aged over time- feel of this cabinet, and those dishes are the perfect shade of blue!

I like all the different patterns and stripes in the bedding and of course the old suitcases!

    That is an amazing photo, everything about it just screams country living at it's best. The floors are the first thing I noticed.

    The first photo is just what I'd love to have. One wall in my living room is like that, if only I could find a way to do this at a tiny cost.

    Oh I love Country Living magazine. I love the more "updated" country look that is more minimalist, and less fussy. Have you ever seen Country Living photos from the 80s or 90s? yikes! very flowery, LOADS of baskets & knick knacks, stuff everywhere! Looked like too much dusting to me, lol!

    I just found your blog, and love that first photo, the table, floors, gorgeous bookshelves, what's not to love about that room.

    I'm new at this blogging thing, still working on it. Just became your newest follower, and would love to have you drop by sometime if you get the chance, would appreciate the follow back if you feel so inclined. Have a great weekend!
