Cute Colorful Cottage




This adorable 929-square-foot carriage house in Des Moines, Iowa was completely transformed by the Country Living design team. I love the simple stencil pattern on the gorgeous aqua end walls of the upstairs. -Country Living

Seaside Hallway

This pretty hall in the Long Island home of Margot Brunelle Fooshee (who is head of marketing for the J. Crew clothing company) is painted Benjamin Moore's Blue Seafoam. The painted dressing table and mirror from Now/Again in L.A. holds a shell-filled apothecary jar from English Country Antiques. -House Beautiful

French Country Bathroom

Provençal decorating mixes a plain country look with heirlooms. Calm blue-grey walls and white woodwork provide a backdrop to a painted freestanding bath. An Osborne & Little floral blind and seat cushion from GP & J Baker pick up the colours of a painting. Bare stained boards are warm, a white heart-shaped metal chair adds glamour. -House to Home

Treasure Island



This large island is useful for working and sitting. Lots of cabinets and drawers to store pots, pans and other necessities and a warming drawer at the ready are on the workhorse side. Those wanting to talk to the chef or eat a meal can do so comfortably on the sitting side, thanks to the large overhang of the countertop.


Fixtures with Flair



Modern in design, these three egg-shaped fixtures provide sufficient lighting for kitchen prep work and eating. Opaque shades prevent the glaring reflection in the granite countertop that clear shades would have caused.
