I want to completely overhaul my bedroom at the moment. Scratch that, I want to overhaul my whole house. With the likes of pinterest I am constantly lusting after aesthetically pleasing, minimalistic, black and white living. I decided that I need to start creating a little bit inspiration for myself and where better to do that, than on my blog. Am I right? I adore the muted tones of grey and whilst a rather dull colour it can lift the starkness of a white room. I think I would maybe I’d add a pop of colour to break it up too!
Home styling can play a big part in making a house a home. Little added touches that shout out that your home is lived in. The character in which the home it has and the personalities that live within it become more exposed from all the little bits you delicately place around the home. I’m excited to let you have a sneak peak in to my favourite room of the house, our living room.
I am obsessed with searching online for a new house. I need a new project to work on, even after a year and a half since our wedding I need something to really get my teeth into. So of course with house searching, many an hour is spent looking online at lovely homewares and I have a little vision in my head and it comes in the form of this white and grey style dream board. I really love the scandi style because how minimalist it is but I would love to mix it with a bit of country-esque pieces too.
Are you one of those people that just scrolls and scrolls and scrolls through Pinterest on an evening? I can see you nodding your head. I am also a self-confessed Pinterest Addict and I will gladly hold my hand up and admit that. Whilst the excitement of pinning for our wedding this year has faded now the momentous occasion has passed us by in a heart beat I can’t help move on to my next ”project.” Yes, you guessed it. My dream home. Gone are the days I would spend ogling my Style Crushes I’m now endlessly re-pinning those log burning stoves & ”hearting” different images of roll top baths. My desire to own the perfect home has peaked and has now headed online to where you can actually buy these beautiful things.
Rodgers of York is situated at Monks Cross industrial park and boasts many collections of home ware from classic and traditional pieces to the more modern, eclectic styles. They are sure to have something for nearly every room in the house.
I picked out some of my firm favourites that whilst I’m dreaming of the perfect home, surely I can pick up the perfect furniture in the mean time. Right?
I dream of the day where I can own a lovely little countryside cottage so when I saw this beautiful set of furniture of a dining kitchen my eyes went all ”heart eyed emoji” – I love the white painted furniture with oak tops. Nothing screams French château quite like it? This is from the Bentley Hampstead collection, from the gorgeous dressers to large dining tables I could definitely see myself and Mr C having something like this in our forever home.
Who doesn’t love a lavish sofa? This is reminiscent of a French chaise langue & I love that style. The chintzy pattern screams ”feature piece” for any living room and doesn’t the fabric look oh-so nice? I think I’d end up stroking it continuously. This sofa is from the Alston’s Courtney range and there are plenty more to choose from.
You can see a pattern emerging here, right? Yes, you better believe it. It’s another white framed set of furniture with oak tops. I just think it looks so elegant and timeless. I love the style of the drawers on all the side tables and chest of drawers, it simply reminds me of the shaker style kitchens (which is of course how I would love my kitchen to be!) I dream of the day where I have a large enough bedroom to attain a blanket box at the end of the bed too. I can almost dream of being in a bedroom like this right now. Is it bedtime yet? This is from the Oklahoma range and is firmly on my dream home checklist.
It’s not just furniture that Rodgers of York does either? They have a fabulous range of soft furnishings, wallpaper and blinds too. It would seem that Rodgers definitley has everything covered! So if you are looking for a bit of ”Home Inspiration” then head to Rodgers of York, situated at Monks Cross Retail Park there is plenty of free parking to indulge in a bit of a home ware splurge! I for one will be heading there soon.
