"A Country Weekend . . . "

Good afternoon,

We all need a quick respite from the busy work week - and this weekend's "getaway" home features a rustic cabin by interior designer Barbara Westbrook on the shores of Lake Keowee.  And yet another in a series of lantern light fixtures for me to lust after.

simple.  rustic.  perfect.

I love the great combination of gracious southern style and classic rustic architecture.  
The perfect place for family to gather and tell stories of the past.

chic, but wonderfully simple.  
And those lovely box-pleated skirts on the slipcovers lending a slight whimsical, 
feminine quality to contrast with the massive furnishings and stark colour story.


Love the dark rustic rug against the marble and bead board.

The perfect place the curl up with a great book.

And an evening by the roaring fire to complete our tour.
(and another great light fixture!)

I hope everyone has great plans for the weekend,
