House Tour: Beautiful, Lived-In, and Inspiring

This Toronto, Canada home belongs to The Marion House Book's Emma Reddington. The Marion House Book is a blog I recently discovered, though I have no idea why I didn't fine it sooner as it is really lovely, as is the author's home. See below:

 The bedroom is probably my fav.  It's simple, pretty, and bright

 Love the branch on the wall!

House Tour: A Copenhagen Beauty

Love this space

The color of the china cabinet is perfect to add some interest to the space. 

Two images above show the entryway.  The owners have used mismatched chairs in lieu of a console.

Great idea to remember - oversized prints hanging side by side in the hall

Perfect desk - plenty of surface area to spread out inspiration

LoVe that chair and the gorgeous view!

 

I don't think I could ever do orange in my bedroom, but this wallpaper is beautiful. I could do it in my home office I think - as orange is supposed to boost creativity.

I am a magazine hoarder, because I've found that sometimes I'll flip through a magazine from a year ago and something will catch my eye that didn't the first time I looked through it. So perusing last summer's magazine is sometimes like opening a brand new magazine. This bookshelf has the perfect sized cubbies to store mags.

House Tour: An airy Arizona home - light and airy with gorgeous antiques

This home is so subtly glamorous and elegant, but the classic furniture in tougher textures keeps the place kid friendly...

The desk and chair are such a great pair but I never would have thought of putting them together

so pretty...

Event the breakfast table is elegant, but doesn't look too fragile or dainty

The table and chairs are perfect

This home was designed by Sasha Adler and Lauren Gold of Nate Berkus Interiors.

House tour: A lovely Swedish home in black and white...

This home is so pretty - I definitely have some home envy going on. I could never be so disciplined though, as to only buy things in black and white. I'm bad about that - If I like it, it could serve a purpose, and I can afford it, I buy it. I worry about it fitting in (and sometimes not) later.

I'm digging the birch(?) branch!

How about you?  Are you good at sticking to a color palette in your home or do you stray?
