Stick To My Guns







  




I love the "going to stick to my guns" approach of this home. They clearly have a soft spot for mid century pieces and colourful art, but they haven't let that sway their love of old tapestries, persian rugs or antique timber pieces either.

And that pink wallpaper?! Well that just has me sold on the whole idea.

    I like the pink as well. It's a very lived-in looking home and I like that :)

    I soooo love this home and style. Ok its not my actual style that I would commit to but the conviction in the design style is so impressive and just goes to show "in" doesn't mean whats in style at the moment, its whats in if you commit to it and decorate by "sticking to your guns"
    Perfect.

    Adore the mid-century furniture but I have to say the pink wallpaper is a bit too much for me! Jane :)

    I love that mantle piece, but the really interesting thing is that old chest in #1. I have one just like it my Nana gave me, it's suppose to be a few hundred years old.
