A Stable turned Summer Home

Are you surprised to see a worn out stable turned into a summer home?? I was :-)  This absolutely gorgeous home is situated in the sunny island of Formentera.  Formentera is part of the Balearic Islands in Spain, and lies south of Ibiza in the Mediterranean Sea.

Almost the entire original building has been preserved. Artifacts bought by the owners from Bali and Sumatra adorn the stunning terrace. Teak wood, stone floors and other natural elements give this home a unique look. I love the  chandeliers in the white bedroom....sigh.....so romantic!! 

What more can I say......I love everything about this home :-)

Spring and an interview on Purplehomes

Its almost April and spring is around the corner. Though we are going through a bout of dull, grey and wet weather........ I live in hope!! The trees are beginning to bloom and there is a hint of color everywhere. I am eagerly waiting to see the cherry blossoms in full bloom along Lake Washington. The display is spectacular every year!

As you know, my window sill is an ever changing canvas. Today, I am dreaming of the blue sea, swaying palms and a gentle breeze :-) So, what's on your spring agenda? My son has his spring break coming up, and I am trying to think of creative ways to keep him busy :-)


I was recently interviewed by Prachi of Purplehomes for the lovely series on her blog called Design Talks. I was thrilled to be included, and the interview was a lot of fun. Prachi is an incredibly talented and creative lady and her blog is one of my daily reads. You can read my interview here!
