We have shared Part 1 & Part 2 this past week of Gail's breathtaking creations & studio ... chandeliers, lighting, sun catchers, sconces, lamps & lampshades ... & 'tick tock' elegant clocks.Gail's home reflects her warm bubbly personality that welcomes you ... let's take a peek.
Gail loves the beach-y accenting her cottage chic home. This is reflected in her color choices, elegance & serene decor. When you enter her foyer you are awe struck with the bright crisp warm inviting colors & home setting. WOW! is your first reaction, second reaction is 'I can hardly take it all in' ... you just want to stand & absorb every inch of each room.
The little tiny touches Gail gives her home make you want to just sit, relax & enjoy.
The blues & cottage shades make her pinks & whites SPARKLE! Her hickory floors add rich elegance! The white island & stove hood make the dark wood cabinets POP! The chandeliers in each room give a GLOW!
Oops! I think we got a 'glimpse' of Harold ... chuckle! Hi, honey!
Now you can see where all the beauty of Gail's creations come from ... & her home reflects the inspiration she brings to each new design.
(If you haven't seen the previous 2 posts, you do need to pop in to view ... )
Thank you, Gail, for a wonderful visit ... you are the hostess with the mostest, your friendship was welcomed in person to cherish forever.

Just a delightful place to see. Thanks to you and Gail for sharing.
ReplyDeleteYour friend Gail is beautiful as is her lovely cottage home. I love that you two made this in-person connection! We learn every day how important our friends are and though they may be a distance away they are in our hearts forever.
ReplyDeleteMarydon, thank you so much for your kind comment on my friend Lynda's untimely passing. (She hadn't told anyone that she had terminal cancer so it was a devastating shock to all.) I appreciate knowing you are near in spirit with your caring and thoughtfulness. Blessings to you and yours, Coralie
Thanks for the tour! It looks like a very peaceful home.

Nice post. Thanks for visiting and asking about our daughter. It has been 5 weeks today since she first got sick. She is still very weak, but went to Mass today and helped fix dinner for the first time.

Hi Marydon,
ReplyDeleteYou had asked me about what to do with bittersweet vines. The best thing I can do is direct you to Linda's blog http://behindmyreddoor.blogspot.com In her right sidebar near the top she has a 2 part tutorial about decorating with bittersweet. When those little greenish yellow pods open up they reveal orange-red berries that look wonderful for fall and winter decorating. Check out all the beautiful ways Linda uses her bittersweet vine. I'll post mine when they open. Mine will be more orange because I picked it too early. But I'm going back for more in a few weeks. Have a restful evening. Hugs, Loretta
What a beautiful home. Thanks so much for stopping by and praying for my friend's son. I so appreciate it!

Thanks so much for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteI keep the bittersweet out until Thaksgiving then throw it out when I decorate for the Holidays as the berries drop off when moved at that point.

Hi Peanut Butter!
ReplyDeleteI so loved this tour. Gail's home is just beautiful. I especially love the little plate rails that are in the bedroom. What a beautiful touch. With all of that white, my grandkids would be touching everything. Love the clean look of it all though. So beautiful. Each corner so neatly arranged and gifted with it's own little surprise. Thank you for sharing Peanut Butter, and thank you Gail for allowing PB to share with us. Your home is so beautiful. Stop by and wish Tony a Happy Birthday. Today's tribute is to him. I love you sweetie. Hugs and Kisses, Sherry
Hi -
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting - I could never have imagined how appreciative I am of a comment! I have been watching Gail for years on ebay always wondering what the rest of her home looked like, so thanks for the tour. I think I'll go drop her a note, and I'll be back to check back into your past blogs.
So nice to know you -
Marsha
Wow! How lovely Gails home is.
ReplyDeleteI especially love the bedroom with the wainscoting and daybed. Scrumptious!
Thanks for the sweet comment about Caro's apt.
Rhonda
What a gorgeous home. I loved it.
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting me yesterday, yup we drove the speed limit but I felt as though God paved the way for us, to make it home safely. The kids cried every night wishing I never went, but deep down I know this was something that needed to be done, regardless of the outcome in the end.
Take care sweety.
Cheers,
Heidi
