coastal living idea house

i have quite a few magazine subscriptions, 

but one of my most, most

favorites is coastal living.

i love the features they have on small coastal towns, 

and the array of coastal homes that they feature. 

i secretly dream of living on the coast--any coast--one day.

when my october issue arrived last weekend,

i curled up in a chair and devoured the newest issue,

which featured their 2010 idea house,

in seabrook washington.

every thing in the house is 

just. 

beautiful.

i love the mix of all of the soft hues here:

grey, blue, camel, oyster.

very soothing.

and don't you love that the trim is darker than the walls?

i love how much texture and color is bought into

this area by the art collage.

this is the media room/den.

what a great place to sit and watch tv and eat some popcorn!

the maser bedroom.

loving all the stripes.

*sigh*

isn't this bathroom amazing?

that vanity is gor----------geous!

this was my  

favorite room in the house.

i love the faux bois stripe

 behind the headboard!

the designer took this soft lavender color

from the inside of a shell!

isn't the house lovely?

(loving the stripes on the risers tim!

and thanks for all the eye candy.)
