Cozy Home in Upstate New York
When I saw this cozy home tour, set in charming upstate New York, I quickly fell in love with so many elements. I definitely gravitate toward a more traditional design style, but with a few country, vintage or whimsical touches {and sometimes I love me punches of modern, too!}. This home tour has a little of all my favorite things. It's rustic, has awesome textures, pretty chandeliers {any girl's dream}, lots of light, not too many overwhelming colors, and a genius kitchen and breakfast nook design. I loved it so much so I told you why above. How cute is the striped upholstery in unexpected colors?! And to forgo mentioning that crazy-cool chandelier in the kitchen would be a crime. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't hang it in my personal kitchen, but I can appreciate it and think it totally makes the room. Part of the reason it works is because the ceiling is vaulted, so it allows for the extra height, texture and overall size of the fixture. Everything else in the room is relatively simple, so going a bit crazy with the the chandy was a-okay in my book.
What's your favorite thing about the home tour? Or maybe you don't like it one bit...and that's okay, too :)
Have a lovely Tuesday!

Her heart is so sweet, her writing captivates me everyday and her daughter might be one of the cutest little girls ever:)

I looove all the architectural detailing like the curved ceiling, and wood panel ceiling! Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteAesthetically, I am not typically drawn to cozy country, but I am appreciating the eclectic styling of this home. There is great depth and interest that I love. Those blue walls, for one, are amazing! And the entry way is pretty fantastic. Oh! and don't even get me started on that bathroom!!! I could soak in that tub for hours :) XO Brynn
ReplyDeleteGirl, I'm with you! LOVE the bathroom. Yes pleasssseee!!
DeleteCountry isn't usually my style (I think, partially because my own dear mom decorated very cutesy country until recently). I love this home, though. There is so much sophistication to it, and I positively adore the color palette throughout. I see a lot here that Tim and I could happily agree on incorporating into our own home -- Thank you so much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteP.S. You're the sweetest!
I love the rustic charm of this home and that chandelier is amazing, you couldnt have that in just any home but it definately works here. Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree!
DeleteMy favorite thing about the home tour was seeing my family's home once again! My family owned this property from 1952-1981. The interior of the home has changed a lot since then but I really enjoyed going inside my home again in through the pages of House Beautiful and on your blog.
