Secret Gardens and Other Favorite Things. Interior and Exterior Design Inspiraton





Come take a look at some things I find most wonderful!!




Lovely!




Forgotten beauty!




From the hydrangeas to the shutters...this is a beautiful outdoor entertainment area.



A hot air balloon ride over the Château de Chenonceau, France. What a treat!




A perfect place to be alone, or have a secret rendezvous!




I love everything about this room.











I feel like an imprisoned queen....with a great view!






Two views of a bedroom that I adore. I love interesting wall treatments and this one  is particularly lovely. 




Mirrors in the jardin. I love the idea! We should use mirrors outdoors more.




Lovely chandelier!





A beautiful room in a French chateau.





The Washhouses of Pontrieux in Brittany, France (by Yann Le Biannic).





I love harlequin floors!  This one in an old chateau is beautiful even with it's missing pieces.




I think this is a lovely bedroom. The lavender coverlet is sumptuous! And the architectural element behind the bed...well need I say more?




Tulips are one of my favorite flowers.
