L'Echapper Belle ("The Beautiful Escape") is a breezy beachfront home on Bald Head Island, North Carolina, and it is headed straight to my all-time favorites list! Captured beautifully by photographers Gridley + Graves for a cover story in Beach Cottages magazine, the beach home is awash in soft greens and blues, paired with white and pale woods that keep everything feeling light and airy–perfect for the beach! The homeowner worked with Shelley Thompson of Cottage Chic to outfit much of the home, filling it was comfortable and casual pieces that exude cottage charm. (Those comfy striped chairs are my fav!) So in love with the galley kitchen too. Did you notice how the upper glass-front cabinets repeat the home's window design? Such a great detail! You can read the article about the home here and see even more photos here! I also discovered the home is a vacation rental (woohoo!) so get all of those details here!

One of the things I wish our home had was a mudroom...they are so handy here in Minnesota! This bright and beautiful space designed by Mollie Openshaw of Design Loves Detail would be perfect for me! Benjamin Moore's Covington Blue is the makes a stunning backdrop for the white built-ins and colorful accessories! The fabulous painting by Carrie Schmitt is my favorite thing in the entire room!

My husband Chris and I love to daydream about renovating a farmhouse...I can't wait for him to see this one by Crisp Architects! The clients loved the charm of their New York home, but felt it really needed some updating. After an entire interior gut renovation, new windows, and restored siding, the home is modernized yet filled with timeless style! Love all of the architectural details, especially the built-ins. Such a beautiful kitchen too! See more photos of the home by Rob Karosis right over here! And for another gorgeous country home by Crisp Architects that I adore, go here!

Have a great weekend everyone! :)

Taking inspiration from the coastal setting, Lischkoff Design Planning partnered with Hettel Nana Design Consulting and Ryan Contracting, Inc. to transform a dark and dated Florida home into an open, light and casual space! Love the serene sand and sea color palette, mix of woods, natural textures and subtle nods to the beach all on a clean white backdrop! The artwork in this home is stunning; I especially love the gallery wall filled with the family's favorite beach memories! The talented team did a fantastic job of blurring the line between indoors and out too. What a dream to have a home office that looks out onto the pool! Finish your tour with more photos by Michelle Peek Photography right over here!
