Loving....








I saw this home on my girl Paula's blog a few days ago and fell hard. Every single thing about this house screams, "paste me into the pages of Michelle's dream house inspiration book!" The lighting in seriously every single room steals the show, in my opinion. I mean, did you SEE that turquoise dining room chandelier??? And those woven pendants in the kitchen? I die.

Needless to say, I immediately emailed Paula and asked if I could share the photos she scanned in from Birmingham Home and Garden. And she sweetly said yes!! 

Paula noted that the owner of this home purchased it for a mere $75,000 and then proceeded to pour their heart and soul into the renovations. Can you believe that? I'd love to see the before shots! The photos in the magazine were taken by Jean Allsopp and the home was designed by Pandy Agnew.

As always, thanks so much for the inspiration, Paula! :)

    I saw this on Paula's blog, too and I loved it. I'm an Alabama native, so I'm a bit biased, too. :) I'm with Cheryl- the lighting is gorgeous...
