Have you ever dreamt in all white? (even if it is a little impractical- i can hardly imagine my dog in these spaces) But I do dream in white. But I have a secret love affair with color and so I would need some punches here and there. And I love the ease of toss pillows. So here are a few rooms in that vein. My favorite is the second image. Spicy yet feminine. And I would throw in some of these pillows from Print Fresh to go along even though these were from a couple of years ago! How about you? How do you feel about toss pillows? Any favorite brands I should watch for as I go shopping next week??

Aaah! Yes! So gorgeous. This is totally the look I'm going for this spring, I will have to save a bunch of these photos and look back at them later when making my new couch pillows...

Wow, I actually love the big mirror in the first photo... what a pretty space!

i love white spaces with bold bright coloured accent pieces ... if i didn't have 2 cats (One of which is black) i would try it in every room. But for now just the bedroom ... makes for a nice sanctuary ... no military items allowed!

obsessed with white spaces, with small pops of color, but really only practical for a bedroom space...at least with little kids around :)

Just found you via lanalou, what a bright pretty blog you have. Love the post on white, and particularly the white wall covered with paintings.
Off to see you at etsy.

The best way how to create your dream home is to find some nice inspiring ideas on web or magazines and then start a home make over. It is a real charming place. Every picture looks so bright, airy, feminine, stylish and elegant. These interiors are full of light and coloured accessories reflect the happiness and true enjoyment of life.
Thank you for sharing, it was inspiring. We see now, that we need just few touches and our homes can be much more interesting and cheerful.
Best regards,
Julie
