Airstream

As you know I tend to spend a lot of time day dreaming about my future farm. The other day when I was doing that I had what I think is a brilliant idea. After purchasing my land in SomePlace, USA I wouldn't mind having an Airstream trailer to call home for a time. Of course I would update the Airstream so it is modern, light, and airy, so that I could live in it while building a house. I would also want an outdoor room for cooking, eating, and lounging (hello hammock) so that living space is not confined to a narrow Airstream . . . In any case, here are a few photos that inspired this train of thinking.

Spring Home Dreams

I'm at it again. I've been dreaming of how I will decorate my future home / been reading up on my favorite interior design blogs. :) Here are some rather dreamy pictures of a home I came across on the Desire to Inspire blog.

I am loving the sofa . . . it even looks like it may be fairly simple to make. I also really like the vase with the bells of Ireland stuck in it, what a lovely choice for spring flower.

Talk about dreamy. I would give anything to be curled up in this nook reading a good novel and enjoying some fresh lemonade.


Ok, now this may be sort of weird, but the bathroom is one of my favorite rooms of a house. It has so much potential to be a relaxing space, kind of like a spa. This bathroom definitely accomplished the spa look. Love the flowers sitting across the tub as well.


I can imagine myself sitting around this table with good friends enjoying a fresh meal during the summer. Am lovin' the canvas tent that's creating the feel of an outdoor dining room.

Kitchen + Fireplace

I recently came across a post on Desire to Inspire about kitchens with fireplaces. I'm not exactly sure what the purpose of having a fireplace in the kitchen would be, seems like it would make the room even more hot then normal when cooking. Nonetheless, I like the look of the added fireplace.
My personal favorite! (the one above)

Scandinavian Love

Let me just put it out there that I think the Scandinavian's have design down. I have yet to see an image of a Scandinavian house interior that I didn't fall in love with. Hopefully my future house will be even a fourth as amazing as these houses. So, here are a few of my favorites!

The mix of farm house and industrial is fabulous.

Lovin' the Kachelöfen in the corner there. Actually, I just really love all Kachelöfens.

I definitely need to remember to make a coat rack from a branch . . .


Ok, I think I figured it out, why I love this type of interior. It's simple, it's clean, it's bright, and it's functional.

One more before I leave. It's not a Scandinavian home, but it is one that I really love. You can find more photos of this house and garden on The Selby website. But
here's a few of my favorite images of this home.
