To Style or not to Style.....Anna's Talent

Anna Speir helped with the Coastal Living Photo Shoot.  She is out of school for a few more weeks and it was amazing as always. After the shoot we decide to style some more. Here are some images from a wonderful house that is for sale . We had a ball playing with a few of   the great spaces in the house.
Note:
Surround yourself with  the things you love and it will always feel like home.

mix it up and it will never be mundane



A few things from Grandmother's house



Anna's talent made this a great  "mantle-scape"  (made up that word)

Note:
Nature is a great design tool when mixed with the things you love.

concrete counter tops, tall ceilings and beautiful black cabinets for display

a mix of the old,the  new and the  unique ..love it!!!

a beautiful master bedroom

back stairs as beautiful as the front stairs...

window boxes make everything inviting

love the different neutrals and textures (and the special Anna oyster shell lamps)

a beautiful entrance

Love it!!!!

Anna wired oyster shells to a chandelier
