I had to see it- since it is the day after Thanksgiving and I spent this holiday here in Nashville with my husband's wonderful family...I just had to get my fill of my beloved hometown!
So here is a post on a great home in a beautiful area!
The homeowner, Christy Ford, is very talented and owns the store
And George in Charlottesville, which I will have to stop by more often when I am in town! Love her decorating advice...
"Play Up Your Favorite Color, but Keep the Base Neutral"
“I’m kind of obsessed with blue French opaline glass now,” Christy says. The bright, almost turquoise color can be seen on table lamps and candlesticks in the living room as well as in the entry. “I would go crazy with that color, but I learned from my mother to keep the base neutral in order to let accessories really shine. She has reined me in a little bit to retain the calmness.”
White or off-white walls and slipcovers stay the same even as Christy flirts with new obsessions. “I tire quickly of things,” admits Christy. “I’ve gone through phases with several different colors, so I try to change things up with pillows and throws.”
...love the white slipcovers...and large white mirror in this room...and those pillows!
I can go a little much with color...so I love neutral/white walls, white slipcovers and white furniture mixed in...then plug in some colorful accessories and change it up as you feel like it!
I think this helped with the home sickness!
Happy Friday!
