BLUE AND GREY ALL THE WAY IN A SMALL VICTORIAN COTTAGE!

September 13, 2010
  • Share

Bright blue sofa and a stainglass window in a Victorian cottage

This is the home of Erin McLaughlin, editor of Style at Home. An adorable Victorian small cottage in shades of pale grey and a bit of blue here and there. Love it. Very soothing, simple and stylish.

I like light grey…to me it allows one to add a dash of color in a small space without closing in the dimensions of the interior.

Excellent little house I think!

What do you think of this small home? I like it because I think this is a chic look that is easy to achieve (hmmm….might have to do a DESIGNER ROOM RECREATE on one of these rooms…hmmm….).

Hope you have a great Monday! Whoa is me…I have to go to a work party tonight…whoa is me…good food, interesting people watching, a little champagne perhaps…whoa is me…life is rough these days… :-)!

Have got to run to get dressed for work!

    I really like the muted gray and blue – you can really dial it up a punch of color or keep it fresh and simple as they have done.

    Oh and love the stained glass window – so beautiful!

    Hi Coco. Love this house. Do you know exactly which Farrow & Ball grey she used? I was looking at their paint chips for my home, and would love to know what was used here. Thanks!

    I love that kitchen! Coco and fellow bloggers: I need a little colour advice. I’m trying to pick the colour of a new coat stand for my scarves. Please stop by my monday blog post and help me decide! Mwah! Gracias!

    I didn’t realize a color combination like this would come out this great! And it gives me more freedom to choose my own color for the decors and furnishings.

    What a great giveaway! I tried to link to it on FB and it wasn’t working. So… here I am! If I can be entered this way…. I’d be so happy! Love the cool tones of this home… I am designing a family room with the same colors this week! 🙂

    Wow, that place looks absolutely amazing! Someone’s got a really good style. The kitchen is my favorite, I think (it is too difficult to decide). Oh, and I never really realized how good the combination of blue and grey is. Nice.
