you asked for it...the infamous article

This was a nightmare to scan in... sorry if the quality is crappy. I love her use of neutrals but with a decidedly french flavor. I think her accessories are great, love the placement of everything, and the couch is very similar to mine, so it's inspiring. Her dining room is almost perfect... if that was a rustic farm table, beat up and raw, it would be perfect. But skip all my yacking and without further adieu, here is the infamous article. Hope you like it as much as I do... it's now being stored in my favorites file...










p.s. This just goes to show that even random, weirdness {to me anyway, hope I'm not offending anyone but admit it, it's completely dorky} like Country Sampler can have a good article now and then. I look at everything in the decor section on the newsstand because you never know...

I have this article saved too. It is soooooo pretty, isn't it? I'm not usually a fan of Country Sampler magazine because it usually features very primitive country and overly cluttered rooms but this one stood out! Thanks for sharing and reminding me about it.

Hi. First time visiting your blog and wanted to let you know how much I like it! I love that fireplace with the lovely bird cage, flowers and candles. It's so pretty! Have a great Day! Daisy~

I remember that article and I think I saved some of the pictures in my ever growing idea file.
I use to thing Country Sampler was not my kind of mag but I recently subscribed to it. I will admit some of the stuff is so far from my norm but I always see something I like and get great display ideas. With so many mags going out of business I am holding on to whatever I can get my hands on.

Thank you so much for going through the trouble. There is a lot to love in that article. I wish I had a brick surround fireplace like that one. I'll keep dreaming for now.

Great pictures! I love all the inspiration. I want to blow them up and study them.

Nora, did you try enlarging them? You can see quite a bit that way.
