It’s no wonder where your design talent comes from. I love these images of your home!
Where is that lovely wallpaper in the first photo from?? I love it!
thanks anna and elizabeth
i actually don’t know anything about that paper. it was here when we moved in. i think we all hated it but we’ve just gotten used to it :)
grace
love those shots! and i agree with anna – looks like you grew up surrounded by great design :)
cute home!
your parents have a lovely home – i especially love the white sofa with the ikat pillow
LOVE the pear chair! (been on a pear kick)
I second that the couch is lovely. In fact, I love all of the pictures from your home. Hope you are having a good trip and a nice Thanksgiving. Miss you.- Min
Gift Guide mania!! I hope you will consider using some pieces from the shiny squirrel.
how lovely! thanks for sharing those wonderful details! love that chair!
i LOVE the vintage couch, wow!
I SAW one at an antique shop the other day and just let it pass by, when i decided to go back for it, it was gone!
Oh well…im sure there will be more…!
Jen : )
i know where you get your talent girl! that hallway is sick & the entire home is fresh and cool.
ah, grace – I now see 1) where you got your lovely taste, and 2) why you felt so at home at Miette!! that striped paper and those prints look so much like the shop! have a great holiday weekend! xo
You’re so lucky to have parents with great taste. I’m so jealous, especially of the white French couch.
LOVE that french couch… don’t get me started on the fringe! the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.
it’s all SO beautiful! and that madeline weinrib bolster! ;)

grace, what a wonderful homage to your parents. something to aspire to, a place that brings comfort and joy…
beautiful home! i love the pear chair .. and the pillow on the vintage sofa .. a lot of personality comes through these photos.
Awesome pear chair! You’ve definitely inspired me to look at the house I grew up in with a new perspective. Thanks for sharing!
