I want to play Looch…

My lovely big Sister, (2nd eldest) Linda is moving this weekend to a home she has wanted for a long time. The style she is after is a sort of grown up beach feel. Not all red and white lighthouses and blue and white starfish etc, but a more muted natural palette.
She will keep some of her little lighthouses and beach paraphernalia, but it will be more pared back. Here are some ideas I have for you Looch…
I think you get the gist here…loads of white and touches of blue, cream and stripes.
The stairs inside are a nightmare apparently and Looch (by the way this is her nickname since we were little) is having issues with what to do to fix them. I suggested taking them out of where they are and moving them to your new entry way and having storage under for your vacuum.

A palette like this as a base which you can add your blues and a hint of red. The chair rail ledge is a wonderful idea. Frame all of your photos in the same type of frame to keep it looking stylish.

Oh…love this. BTW, there is a blog for Phoebe’s designs now (yay!) Thanks Anna!
How warm and cosy is this space, not to mention beautiful. This look would work with your sofa Looch.

…but I know you will love this.
My favourite for your ideas. White, stripes, wicker and a big boat.
How good do the roll up matchstick blinds look with the eyelet curtains?
No need for expensive blinds Linda!!!
Well, as I am MILES away from my big Sister, this is the least I can do as I can’t actually get my paws on her interior…lol.
Have fun arranging Linda…I SO wish I could play too!
Miss you…

  • Gorgeous Ness. You have such great taste. It’s a pity you are so far from your sister. Sounds like you would wave your wonderful design wand over her place in no time. Doesn’t that dining table set up look cosy – I can see reading, eating, socializing on that lounge – what a great idea! A-M xx
