Light, airy and beautiful spaces from Lonny Mag

FREE IMAGES Lonny is great for bright airy spaces.  So when I'm feeling a bit frazzled and out of control, I like to peruse their archives.

Truly fresh and inspired spaces

FREE IMAGES I strive for a home that is thoughtfully decorated and put together, but at the same time not so styled and polished that it doesn't look like anyone lives there.  It can be a hard balance to strike though, but if you take the time to pick out pieces, colors, and textures that are meaningful to you and fit your lifestyle, your home will feel beautiful to you even if there are shoes left by the door and mail piled on the counter.  Here are some spaces that I think are really beautiful, but have enough personality to shine even if someone really lives there!

Even though this space is small, seating is ample for a family, just scaled down to fit in the space.

I don't iron my sheets either, though this be is prettier than mine with the gorgeous emerald shams and quilt!

This space reminds me of the courtyard rooms in Morocco.  What a treat to have that skylight!

One of my favorite looks is well-worn books mixed in with family photos and travel souvenirs.
