OMG

Hello all!

I was reading my fav blogs tonight and saw this on Re-nest

Catskills Farmhouse

OMG!  My mouth fell open and my heart stopped.  This is my kind of guy!  Where do I start?  The wall color is not what I would choose for my home only because I’m not that daring.  It is fabulous.  I love how the map blends seamlessly yet still stands out.  The farm table is pitch perfect in my book as is the trunk underneath.  And, if you knew of my obsession with old bank boxes, boxes in general and how I love to stack things as above, you would know why I love this so.

Oh, and there is the globe… that is a reproduction and one that you will be able to find in the store in the near future.  We found it in NY at the Gift Show and have been waiting for it ever since.  Will let you know when it arrives.

The rest of the pictures are equally stunning.  The house was featured in today’s New York Times Home Section.  I suggest you visit to see the rest of this eclectic house.

Here are my other favorite spaces…

Bats

That cabinet with all the drawers is spectacular, the chipping paint is great and the bat illustration is just plain cool!

Bed nook and rocking chair

I dearly love that rocker!  It is truly amazing.  And, I love the nook bed.  My son would go berserk for something like that.  How cozy and inviting.  Only trouble with such a space is he would soon outgrow it.  But, how he would love it while it lasted.

Green floor and cabinets

That green floor is inspired and the wall of glass cabinets is beautiful.  What I wouldn’t give to have such cabinets.  Not just for the space but for the dark wood contrasting with the white – Ahhhhhhh!

Anatomy

Finally, this artist and homeowner has a wonderful fascination with anatomical charts and other teaching tools like the one above.  I suggest he check out our skeleton below.  I think it would fit in perfectly.  What do you think?!

Skeleton

Anyway, I was truly inspired by this space and wanted to share with you.  Will now have to make a pilgrimmage to the Catskills to visit his shop Kabinett & Kammer in Andes, NY.  See you there…!

Take care,

Amy
