Modern Country

Welcome to my humble adobe! I love to get a sneak peak of other's homes on their blogs, and I thought I'd return the favor to you. Please know that I am no decorating genius.  I do not have a knack for choosing colors nor does style just naturally flow out of me. In fact, after my husband and I first got married I promptly painted our bedroom walls the exact matching colors of our duvet comforter! It didn't turn out very well. Two years ago I learned that I really loved the shabby chic style and from there decorating got a little easier. I finally had an overarching idea to work around. However, it was over lunch with a friend last week that I learned that my interior design efforts of shabby chic really portrayed a more modern country look. But I can live with that! I am, as you know, a farm girl in the making. 

Now, without further ado, come walk through my family room and dining area with me. My prayer over these walls is that they may serve to be a foretaste of heaven to my family and all others who grace through our front door.

Want to know how I did that?

• The pillows are from Pottery Barn
• The lantern is from Kohls
• The table and sofas are from craigslist
• The "Love One Another" artwork is a DIY project made from pallet wood (similar pieces may be gracing Etsy soon, stay tuned)
• And the curtains, they are my favorite find! The curtains are actually tablecloths I found (for a steal) while shopping at HomeGoods.
