Escaping to Nantucket!


Can you feel and smell the fresh air?! Take a look at this glorious Nantucket Summer "Escape" Home I found over at Traditional Home. Isn't it just lovely? This summer I seem to be drawn to summer homes with very neutral palettes. This one is so very serene and feels welcoming just looking at the photos. I see myself swinging on the hammock on the front porch enjoying the Nantucket summer breeze. With most posts I try to only show a few pictures, only my very favorites but I could not dwindle it down so here are 8 to feast your eyes on. Once again I find myself daydreaming of a beach house!


Heavenly!


This room is 50ft long! A warm mix of living rooms and dining areas. What a place for a party or a cozy night down by the fire!


Notice the blue paneled folding door towards the back, just fantastic!


This is a keeper photo! Someday I would love to have beds just like these, tucked into a nook with the sound of the ocean waves just outside the window. Perfection!!

Color Burst on Nantucket

Since Memorial Day is just a few days away I thought I would share this sweet Nantucket Cottage with you. Every inch of the 600 ft sq cottage is bursting with color; Turquoise, Sharp Tangerines, Grass Greens and Sunlite Yellows! This is not a common occurrence for a Nantucket home, which makes this small space even more unique. The strong colors become an interesting contrast to the serene landscape you see out the windows. I love the accents interior designer, Deborah Timmermann added, every single piece has a purpose which maximizes the space. She has created a house with a joyous, comfortable feeling, a place I would want to spend a nice long weekend! Enjoy the tour!
