Welcome: House Tour

While browsing Pinterest yesterday, I came across this beaut 
and just had to share it!

You'll thank me- I promise:)

It's not often that I will investigate an image on Pinterest but when I saw this, I had to. And boy, was I glad I did!

This 7,000square foot Texas home has 5 bedrooms,5 bathrooms 
and a whole lot of style. 
Unfortunately, it is no longer for sale and the designer wasn't listed. 


Enough talkin'-start lookin'


Welcome. I wish I could tell you this was my home...


 such a neutral living room


 As you can see, they carried the same curtains throughout the house

look at these old floors!
and that door!






 One lucky husband to have a billiard room.
 I do think I could live with this though


Ok, - I absolutely HATE t.v's above fireplaces.
But I'd live with it if this were my home:)

I am in love with these beams
 So much great open space. I wonder if they entertained a lot?


A lot of counter space in the kitchen. I like how light and airy it is.


In the butlers pantry you can see a close up of the backslash. Are you a fan?


The guest bathroom...

  
And the upstairs hallway
Once again, these floors!


I'm pretty sure I love everything about this master. 
The beams, the high ceiling...


The private sitting area...


And we can't overlook this bathroom. Honed limestone, a great bathtub and an open shower (now that is how you do a glass shower).
I've always liked ottomans in bathrooms.


A lucky little girl sleeps in this room.


How pretty is this bathroom? I think pretty is the best word to describe it!
Perfect for a little girl- or an adult.


And the nursery...
notice the wall to wall seagrass


Off of the nursery is this timeless bathroom.


I adore this playroom. It's not full of furniture which leaves the kids plenty of room to play. Also that ceiling- I want one! 



I would spend every night out here. 
Eric would love to grill and watch t.v. at the same time.


and then there is the pool. Do I even need to say anything about it?


If you don't want to swim, you can hang out here.

See. Told ya!
It's a gorgeous house

I wonder what the new owners have done with it?
I'd love to see this woman's new house.

The Oyster or the Pearl?





Which one do you like in your home?

I personally like the oyster. But a mix is great too. Something about  an oyster and being in the south. Too bad we have a little while before it's an "r" month again :(

Oyster:

 oyster shell fireplace

 oyster shell chandelier


 oyster shell lamps 

 oyster shell mirror

 oyster shell cross

 oyster shell candle holder

Shell Bust

 Oyster Shell Painting

 The Pearl:

pearl knob 

 
 Mother of Pearl lamps

 Pearl Mirror
 Pearl Chandelier

 Mother of Pearl backsplash

Pearl Mosaic

The perfect combo:


L.O.V.E this bathroom! 

What will be for you? Oyster? Pear? Both?

I think some of the oyster pieces could become great DIY projects!

The Great Towel Debate

I'm ready for a change. A change of towels that is. I first thought about getting some after an episode of Dear Genvieve and have been totally smitten over Turkish towels (aka pestemal) since. They are usually handwoven and are made of Turkish linen, cotton and/or silk. And they are huge! Not your normal bath towel size....but they take up less space. AND the more you use and wash them, the better they get! What do y'all think?

To Pastemal or to not Pastemal? What would you do? Do you have any Turkish towels? Where did you get them from?
