I’ve been dreaming a lot about what my future home will be like. This is a mood board of all the various components: wood and stone, a roaring fireplace, sleeping kitties, windowsills decked with plants, a garden, black walls and more… It’s my ideal.

It’s amazing, I think I will live here too!!!
So gorgeous!
I am right there with you!! and when i saw the pic of my windowsill i thought “hey, i have that same glass canning jar”. dur. this is a great idea alison. i have a gabillion interior inspiration pics on my computer. i want to try to put a little compilation like this together.
This mood board is fantastic. Thank you for sharing your collection of inspiring pics!
This is absolutely incredible, and I couldn’t agree more on everything a dream house should include. That dark peeling wallpaper is awesome! I wish I could have a house just like it.
Thank you for sharing your photo finds, and all the best in making your dream home a reality!!
lovely! this home would feel like a retreat! ..love that first image of a house. sooo beautiful! ..about 2 years ago my mom and i went driving around new-to-us parts of our town (which is quite old in certain areas) and we found a house that reminds me of that one! it was so unexpected and looks like it should be in the french countryside or something. we were both so excited and took photos haha. anyway, i’d love to be able to have a house like that someday!
Love, love, love!! The last piece is amazing – I want it in my bedroom now, please! & the exterior shot – perfect. I am inspired! Definitely rummaging through the several antique/consignment stores around Bloomington this weekend.
thinking i might have to create a photo wall like in the third photo. amazing group here.
i love it all. x
Thank you for the inspiration. Your dreams are lovely.
[...] As of June 1, 2010, Jeff and I will be living in sin in our own little nest. Expect endless Polyvore mood boards and decorating thoughts to come! I’m so excited to spread all of my antlers, portrait paintings and cow skin rugs all over our new place and let some kitties roam. Eeeeep! This bedroom gives a good idea of where I want to start, decorating wise (but in a railroad apartment, not a barn). More decorating thoughts can be found in my dream house post. [...]
That kitchen photo with all the flowers in vases is so lovely!
