Simple White

By Kate Riley May 21, 2009

I can never wait until Memorial Day to bring out my white slipcovers in anticipation of summer.  I adore crisp summer whites.

We have one dining space that sits in the exact center of our home….

  1. The tablescape is so pretty! I’m just going to have to plant me some of those pretty roses.
    I especially liked the stuffed animal display. How is it when you get rid of one..you acquire so many more?

  2. Ok, I CANNOT get over your flower arrangement – and the fact that those blooms came from your yard blows me away!! That’s it, I’m sorry, I’m going to have to steal your rose tree – it’s awesome!

  3. love it! did you make those adorable slipcovers? if so…tutorial please!!! haha

  4. Found you while researching upholstered headboards. I like you! lol! I’m rushing off but I’ll be back. Love the re-do in your dining area. I’m feeling the itch to re-do some stuff, too. Want to sell some furniture and open the space up more. I’ll be back! (I’m in SoCal.)

  5. You’ve given me the bug. Although I have less “redecorating” and more… “actually hanging things on walls” that I need to work on. I’ll be posting about one obstacle that keeps getting in my way, though. Maybe you’ll have a suggestion? =)

  6. The dining chairs' cushions used to be white in my house! I'd like to blame the kidlets entirely, but I'm afraid the adults have done their share of spotting and staining. Yours look brilliant white…..and wonderful! I do love your daughter's touch! :>

  7. tee hee, I love the addition of the animals to the center piece!

  8. It’s amazing what you can find at a goodwill! How nice of you to reunite the two pieces and put them to such good use.

  9. Hi, Kate, came over from Kimba's & I have to say wow, what a pretty blog. And I will def. add you to my reader. Love your style & all these pics & can't wait to see more. I think you would enjoy my blog as well, so drop by for a visit.

  10. I had planned to go thrifting tomorrow morning, and now I can’t WAIT to go. I hope to find scores such as yours. Your room, table, chairs and tablescape looks so pretty.

  12. I love the house in Something’s Gotta Give. I’ve trying to find some of the artwork from the movie, especially the beach scene in the living room. I think it’s called rockaway beach. I can’t find anything. Can anyone help?

  13. I have been looking through all your rooms and wondering if you had listed somewhere all the paint colors and combinations you used in each room. I know the master bath was your own blend but I’ve got to know what you’ve used all around your house! My husband and I are choosing paint colors and I am not good at decorating so that everything is co-hesive. We have a dark brown couch what color should the walls be and the floors?……….oh I wish i could borrow you for a weekend to make my house a home!
