The White Houses



I've been meaning to blog about theses two houses for a little while. I walk past them almost everyday on the way to the shops and they make me 'ahhh' everytime. They are actually next door to each other and the only two houses on a little side street. Each one of them has a monochhrome scheme but in a different way. I love the crispness of them and how the evening light hits them. These are my inspiration to paint our cottage white when it needs repainting as the front is southfacing so will not be struck by the sun and blind passersby and keeping the garden mostly deep green for contrast.

  1. Hi Heather - I really like the second house;it's colour scheme is so appropriate for the style.

    Also, just wanted to thank you for your advice on the lamps - I think you're right about the glass lamps (crystal is not really my style) so I'm going to try find some. I'll post a pic for you when I get them.
