Siesta in the Sun

Not only do I have a very strong desire to live in a home that feels collected, global inspired, and warm; but I also have a very strong desire to live abroad at some point.  In due time, in due time!

Regardless of that, this home in the sunny south of Spain has so many beautiful features.  The hardwood flooring throughout was installed by the owner who is a carpenter and the white plaster walls and ceilings only highlight the level of amazing woodwork that is present.  Breezy windows with gauzy coverings add to the feeling of restfulness.

I just such a big fan of the various colors and textures that make this home feel cozy, chic, and rustic all at once.

How do you feel? Perfectly ecclectic, or too much for your taste?

Have a SPLENDID Thursday!

    Oh my goodness, the cabinets in the last picture–i died.
    The entire home is gorgeous; light, bright, airy, tranquil…it just makes you want to curl up with a book!
    Thanks for sharing!

    Love it! Especially the first two pictures. It’s eclectic, but the clean white/cream walls keep it modern and uncluttered.

    Love it! You know you can always “house trade”. Some people do it for 6 mo. to a year! Would love to live in a house like this one in Spain!

    Yes, living abroad is something everyone, myself included, should do at some point…I’m thinking Paris!

    I love this house…the combo of shabby chic and worldly charm is totally up my alley!
