Rustic Farmhouse

I am working really hard to finish up the long over due makeover on my cane back chairs.
 I hope to be able to show them to you next week.
 So in the meantime, please enjoy a tour of this charming rustic farmhouse.
I think the giant blackboards framed in barn wood are so cool!


They only show a bit, but I am loving the rug in this picture!


It is starting to get cold here in Illinois and a wood burning stove sure would be cozy.
We had a wood burning stove in my home when I was growing up and I loved it.



The bed is a little spartan for my taste, but the twiggy lamp is great.
The walls and floors are wonderful too.


A nice little nook for blogging. :)


A wee bit of Christmas.
I couldn't wait any longer!
I've already started listening to Christmas music. Have you?

  2. What a great home! I love the simple colour palette throughout. I was checking out Michael Buble's new Xmas album on iTunes yesterday - I may have to buy a few tunes. Xo

  10. What a unique home. I really like that kitchen and that rug! I have had the Christmas music on for a couple weeks now. I just want to be in the holiday spirit and get the decorations up and the shopping completed. I just really want to enjoy the season and not feel rushed.

  14. That is a gorgeous home! I so wish I could blink my eyes and have those floors in my own home! Thanks for sharing! And the Christmas music is blaring here and the decor is not quite up...there is more of it on the floor than there is on the tree and mantle! ;)
