Opening the Doors Of A Wisteria Covered Country Home
There is no denying that I am country girl at heart so when I spotted this wisteria covered house, I couldn't resist a peek inside. A totally unspoilt Georgian home set in 20 acres of woodlands and paddocks...sigh! Inside, these period homes can be quite dark, however this Georgian home has been brightened by predominantly using light neutral colours on the walls, the perfect foil for the owners antiques.

Georgian House Tour - A mix of classic and contemporary interior design
I am still in wind down mode and I'm sure most of you are too, if your not currently sleeping off Christmas dinner, your probably away on holiday, however I wanted to quickly share this Georgian home discovered on House of Locations. Situated in London with six beautiful bedrooms and five bathrooms with far too many images to choose from, I selected a few neutral shots and some pastel ones. This home however, did feature some rich, warm colours therefore, if your thirsting for more, please visit them at the link at the end of this post.
A mix of ornate classic and contemporary lines in this fireplace. I like the idea of a mantel without columns, a similar idea of a floating mantel can be seen in the living room of Interior designer Andrew Melville's previous home
A pop of colour by way of art, an easy way to add colour
The dark wood doors bring warmth to this neutral sitting area and work wonderfully with the two iron consoles
A country style kitchen in black and white
A pretty pastel girls room, the wall stickers add colour and interest to the pale white walls, similarly the sweet pattern on the roman blinds
what a stunning effect these over sized flowers bring to this wall - You can make your own paper flowers with easy instructions from the book, Paper to Petal: 75 Whimsical Paper Flowers to Craft by Hand
A classically styled room with a contemporary touch by way of the glass bedside lamps and subtle mauve tones. I love the additional pop of green seen in the rose cushions
A clever choice of shower curtain which appears almost mesh like, its subtle sheen brings a little softness to an area featuring strong, dark colours
After receiving my long awaited DSLR this Christmas, I am inspired by the images above and I have been busy snapping everything around me but I have so much to learn and at the moment finding out its my capabilities which are limited until I learn how to use the manual settings. In the New Year I should be more familiar and will share some images of my home.
Images above are via House of Locations. This fabulous home is available for film/photo shoots. If you want to see more images or find out more information, please visit House of Locations.

If Your A Minimalist, 'Look Away' - Tour a French Style Home
As my heading says, look away if your a minimalist or your style is contemporary, as this Georgian home is the perfect background for the owner's collection of French antiques. I love symmetry, it just seems to work effortlessly and there is a lot to be seen in this beautiful home. I also like the way the owners have mixed artifacts of differing materials such as brass, silver and ceramics. The two over-sized ceramic pots on the mantel below, are real 'statement pieces', their bold shape draws the eye away from the smaller more ornate pieces. With 5 bedrooms and so many beautiful images, I have picked out my favourites.
I hope you enjoyed the tour, I have been inspired by the bedrooms as I am hoping to create a similar atmosphere, maybe a little less grand, in my own bedroom which is due for a makeover. This beautiful home is available for photo and magazine shoots. For enquiries or if you want to see more images, please visit, jjlocations.
