According the the article by Ms. Emily Henderson, Modern Traditional Style is a traditional, timeless style, a little bit modern, but also a little bit worn and rustic with shaker elements. The style feels humble and lived-in, modern yet welcoming, all with an heirloom and handmade look throughout. Furniture pieces are collected and a little worn (thanks for your help on this kids!), paint isn’t too perfect, metals are mixed, lines are clean and nothing is over adorned. The overall color pallet is warm neutrals (soft whites, creams, taupe, grays, light browns) with earthy wood tones and pops of metallic.

Perfectly. My. Home. Here are some examples from our newly renovated dining room.

The plan was to have it finished for family to take along on our lake vacation, but it will not be completed in time. Seriously, I am not sure

This week I began a scrappy Chippewa Quilt. I am determined to sew more from my scrap bins this summer in an attempt to keep them from spilling all over the room. Back in April I did a round up of some of my favorite scrap-busting projects reminding me how much I love the simplistic, yet bold

This week I am making a small batch of soft canvas embroidery hoop art pieces. Each is unique in fabrics, colors and overall theme.
