Sometimes I fantasize about taking a vacation at home and this is what it would look like. Clutter-free, lots of white and light and the warmth of the hard wood underfoot. Chances are I'll never end up staying here, unless I have out of town guests book a reservation but I can still bring some of this into my home (and since I don't live far, I can still imagine I'm on vacation).
