Winter White

Hi Darlin's
Hope your enjoying this beautiful Saturday!

I
     LOVE * LOVE * LOVE
Whites....
I have my own specific shade that I am drawn to. 
Years ago I named it Winter White.

The richness & textures are so romantic & cozy...

Winter is the season to enjoy textiles...
I so wish we had cold weather here in SO CAL to do just that!
The richness & textures are so romantic & cozy.

A pair of vintage skis...what a find.
That delightful texture is obviously from many years of fun!


White Birch trees....Yum I love them, 
This vintage planter box was found at our old beach house from the 40's. 
My dad cut these birch logs many many years ago. I treasure them, they won't ever see the firebox!!! 
They came from Wisconsin.

 I adore this gorgeous vintage house...
I sure would love to peak inside wouldn't you?
 I can only imagine the beautiful architectural detail and craftsmanship....

Now this would be a cozy space to enjoy a afternoon nap...

Large windows letting the winter light in... Paneled walls, so elegant.

"My favorite white is Winter White" I think it's a vintage classic.

My Design tip: Choosing white accessories for your winter spaces will be beautiful. A light feeling to start off the new year.

Hop over to SECOND SHOUT OUT BLOG & visit my shop Casual Loves Elegance for some winter White items...

Have a gorgeous weekend,
xo,
me

  1. Hi Gail,
    I lové the beauty in grey, white, and rustic to elegance you always inspire here. I even love the shout outs to the furniture web site you have, it's all so divine.
    I too have lost all my family, I just have my mother, her sister and my 3 siblings left and things that find there way into my home have this hidden treasured memory without a constant daily reminder that jumps out at you with sadness.

    I too live in Southern Calif, my family was in the movie picture industry and so on, perhaps someday we will bump into each other, or plan a moment we can share some inspiring visit time. It would be great to meet you, I find you full of beautiful inspiration.

    Xx
    A beautiful week ahead of you.

    1. Hi Roxie, How exciting. cedar shake is one of my favorite. First I have a couple questions, about the walls...Does the paneling go to the ceiling? Is the ceiling paneled? What are the floors? Let me know and I can give you suggestions from there. Thank you Have a beautiful week! xo
