Louisiana Southern Home

 

 

While browsing the internet, I stumbled across this beautiful home tour at Southern Living.  Imagine my surprise when I saw that it was in my own back yard!  Well, more like about 50 or so miles away in the city of Baton Rouge!

 

If we were ever to build another home, it would be similar to this!  I adore plantation shutters and French doors!

 

 

The living room is so calm and soothing.

 

 

The homeowner suggest making antiques a focal point and I must agree!  They add great character!

 

 

I love the idea of building a larger cypress table to set over the existing bar!

 

 

 

 

Check out the massive upholstered headboard and the coordinating check on the beside table!  I have been looking for someone to cover a chair and the person that did this lives about 15 miles from me!

 

 

 

Outdoor living areas is a big thing here in south Louisiana!  The first thing I noticed in this picture is how she incorporated the grain sack pillows in this area!  Love it!

I hope you enjoyed this tour!  To see more, visit Southern Living.

  7. I'm a northern girl who wants a southern home in the worst way! Would love to incorporate the brick outdoor room into our home. Up here in northern Illinois we need to savor the outside as much as possible before the impossible winters appear.

  8. The home decor is beautiful but what caught my eye is the soft blue trumeau mirror. I am little obsess about it. And planning to make one in the future so this one is really pretty. I am pinning it. Thank you so much for sharing this.
