Around the House

Did Someone Say Whimsy?

While I love many decorating styles, I have a particular fondness for homes filled with color and whimsy. These homes are created with the intention of NOT going with the grain. They might be Pinterest worthy but they aren’t going to be found on many, if any, home decorating magazines because <gasp> they aren’t whatever the latest version of ‘stylish’ might be.

Ariel Bissett’s very old Canadian home has been her playground for several years now. It is filled with color, creativity, comfort and, yes, whimsy, Her latest video showcases a few small projects that have added that little something extra. Check it out:

The stripes are wonderful. The colors she uses are fun. The best thing of all: You can use whatever colors make you happy. Even if they fall into the current <cough> preferred pallet… And, of course, I love the artwork, too!
