Today I’m feeling very snowy, probably from the combination of all the fabulous snow and ice I’m seeing while watching the Olympics and the foot of snow that Dallas got on Thursday.
{This is what it looked like outside my front door}
Isn’t it just gorgeous? I know a lot of the country has been dealing with too much snow, but this snowiest day on record made our neighborhood glow and the sound of snow falling is so incredibly peaceful – in short, I loved it!
I thought I’d share with you a few beautiful spaces that make me feel like snuggling up in front of a crackling fire. Touches of sparkle through silver, glass and mirror add an icy glitter, while soft grays, snowy whites, and dreamy blues evoke the calm feeling that follows a snowfall. You’ll notice that all of the cool tones in the spaces are kept from feeling cold and unapproachable through the use of warm woods, dashes of bronze and gold, and soothing tans.
Do you have a favorite? And have you been as glued to the Olympics as I have? I can’t wait for some of the alpine events to start tonight . . .

I’m so jealous y’all got so much snow last week! All Houston got was freezing rain — notsofun!

LIz, you always have the BEST inspiration photos. I love whenever you post these. Your Flickr page is one of my go to sources for inspiration as well. Keep it up girl, what a resource you are for great design ideas !
And I can’t pick a fav, they’re all so beautiful. *sigh* Stay warm !
I’m so glad you posted these!! I was *just* looking thru pictures yesterday for my kitchen. I’m trying to decide if I want to keep it all white or not. I’m partial to all things clean and crisp. So picking one room I love is impossible. Great finds tho!
Loved your pictures, both of the snow and the icy inspired rooms. I am so glad you made the technology change so you can provide us more pictures!
Great job, Liz!
I love these pictures and want that first bedroom shot to be my own! Have fun in your snow – we just got more this morning! I am SOOOO ready for spring!
