Scandinavian Chic: Would it be too Crazy?

Would it be too Crazy?

So, as you know, We've just purchased my grandparents home, and it has a super cozy cottage look, with brown timber and blue windows and shutters.

I know my mother loves it, and I do too...

Owned by the Novogratz family (of course). Always so bold and confident in their choices. I think it's such a good look!!

But then I saw this!

Is that a happy house or what?? Ours look very much like it, except for the posh looking entrance. (ours is very ordinary)

I SO want to do it! My husband asked me if I'd been drinking (I don't drink), but I seriously think he kind of liked the idea.

What do you think?

Totes over the top (we're conservative here in Norway), or fun&fearless??

I grew up in a light pink house and it was the only one in miles distance, but it thaught me something good. To have the guts to dare to stand out in a crowd !! I would say go for it.; February 20, 2013 at 9:48 AM

Her spurte mannen om jeg hadde drukket da jeg ville pusse opp kjøkkenet så jeg kan vel se langt etter et slikt inngangsparti...

Just Verte Style said...: My very first house years and years ago was a Dutch Colonial, white with bright yellow shutters and a shiny black door. Your picture brings back memories!

Several years ago my husband and I downsized to a cottage, and we love it. There's more lee way in how one can decorate, for one thing, and a small country garden filled with annuals and herbs means that one has more time for other pursuits. We certainly don't miss the big house, lawn to mow and shrubs to trim and have more time for life's other pursuits...reading, visiting, and...of course!...antiquing!

I'm happy for you and your family!

I had just a similar idea for the summer months in our house, since we have this newly build mini porch.... Floating curtains.....YES!; April 3, 2013 at 12:26 AM
