OK......enough of nurseries for now. Let's get back to some adult interiors.
I came upon this house in Traditional Home recently and I thought it was one of the prettiest and most comfortable houses I have seen in a long time. I have followed Lillian August's work for a long time and have loved it, but I particularly love this fresh, light look she has incorporated into her newfound retreat in Carolina.
There are so many adjectives to describe rooms, but my favorite is 'pretty' and while there are lots of beautiful rooms out there in many different styles - modern, contemporary, traditional, shabby, country, mid century, vintage, etc........sometimes it's hard to find 'pretty', inviting, comfortable, charming and low maintenance all in the same home.
This house covers it all! Pure charm!

What a lovely room - sisal rug, painted distressed furniture for low maintenance - no window treatments - just lovely!
A closer view of the living room makes me want to paint, sand and pound all my dark furniture! That's inspiration!
Love all the symmetry and colors.
Love the colors here, as well - can I say it again - so pretty!
Love it!
Wicker, sisal, birdcage, pink! This is my cup of tea!
Love all of this and especially the stove!
A cosy corner!
How perfect is this?
And what house is complete without a furry little friend sitting on a bed of peonies?
Adorable!
