This house tour was brought to you by the letter "K".

I ADORE Kirsten's home and style. I'm also a huge fan of her blog. Especially love the mixing of patterns.

Anyone know where the matching bedroom lamps are from?

Love the Pinkie and Blue Boy prints in the bedroom! My grandmother had some prints and figurines, and I have inherited them.

Love the wastebasket. Where can I get one?

Love the colors and patterns, just impeccable. I have a feeling Kirsten might like these pics: http://designfixation.blogspot.com/2011/03/bit-of-butter-yellow.html

What a fun and lovely home! I wish we could see the bathroom and kitchen. Those are always my favorite rooms to check out.

Such pretty curtains throughout. So appealing. Adorable baby, too!!

One more thing to fix and it's pretty as it can be -- the unruly wires under the credenza.

Love the pillow on the bed also. I believe it is one by Thomas Paul.

She fit a sewing machine on a shelf of her Expedit. Good idea, it's "out" and available yet put away!

Beautiful home! It's so great to see a house tour from Utah! More, please:)

wonderful!

Oh this girl has my kinda style! I'm loving all the bright bold patterns and those bedside lamps are fab!

Thanks for putting Utah on the map! Your home is darling.

RMF325's post cracked me up. Ya..um..not sure I like all the K's thrown around the home. I noticed a "J" too..I'm assuming that is for the son not the husband..but still a little Seasame Street, which is fun for a baby's room but not in the living room. :) But really do love the home. Very bright and happy. Love the colors.

A little bit too "Utah" for me--I grew up there so I believe I have justification. I do think I like the bedroom though. The curtains in the dining area are quite nice.

Did you make them yourself?

Not a fan.

Likes: this house, RMF325's comment.

Dislikes: Spamming the comments. not cool.

Love me some letter K.

I like how she's livened up what appears to be a generic newer home (I need models for this!)

Is the clock in front of a large window?

I really like the bird pillow in the master bedroom, it reminds me of a Picasso sketch. I also really like the paper airplanes on the wall in the baby's room - is it a decal or a stencil?

Great house, looks just like my 400sf studio.
Someone asked about the lamps, Target has some that are identical to those. Sabrina Soto is hocking them on the Target commercial

oK.

Meh, looks like a pottery barn catalog.

Nice use of color but all the Ks make me feel like its Sesame Street.

Cute...like all the color....my son is named Jett too!

Gorgeous.

I agree with kelleyk, it's great to see more examples of what people can do with "builder basic" homes... anyone can make spaces with 12' ceilings, leaded glass, and gorgeous hardwood look nice. But 99% of people don't live in homes like that.

Major light over-exposure in the photos. I had to squint! Natural light is good, but hoo-wee. It's like aliens have landed outside each window.

thorndale: The fabric is from last year's pottery barn line and was also offered by Calico Corners, who carries designer fabrics like Robert Allen and Dwell Studio.

P.S. I'm in Utah too.... and don't see how this is "too utah." IMO, that would be overstuffed roll-arm leather furniture and deer antler chandeliers.

Though this home design is clearly informed by pottery barn, calico corners, (the curtains are from Iman's fabric line), and a lot of popular design blogs, I think for a youg family-friendly space, this home is great. It's cheerful, personal, clean, and most important: livable. Kudos!

Wow, some people are so brash with comments. I love this place, a cheery and well put-together home. Love the study in particular, but am partial to Kartell..

Could we have more details on the paint colors used in each room?

Only one paint color (Hazy Skies) is mentioned in the Resources section, and there are great colors in each room.

I love your house! Where did you find the green and white wastebasket? What brand is it? Keep up the fabulous work!

I'm inspired! The only thing I didn't love was the dining room set, but I have a feeling these home owners are on there way to either sprucing it up or replacing it. :-)

LOL @ MarshallO's comment. It's a nice, bright, fun house that probably works for their family, but it doesn't do much for me. Thanks for sharing!

I've never been to Utah but I'm sure there are many fabulous things/places/people there for those who have eyes to see. How sad to be so dismissive.

I missed the stenciling in the bedroom - proudest diy. Was it there and I didn't see it?

I don't know why Utah isn't represented more. We have some great designers and homes here, including mine ;)

Kirsten's home is cute for a young family, but I agree that it isn't fabulous, and to me appears a little too trendy. Maybe when she's got more experience the place will become more cohesive. At the moment it seems like she's decided to include all of the current trends on a budget.

Sorry, but the coffee table isn't working for me.

But a lot of people do like Kirsten's style, and I believe she's got quite the following.

I am with RiseUpSinging, don't dig the snarky comments.

I do like what you've done with your home. I love, love checking out what folks do. So much I can't afford, or begin to pull off, but I love to look and get kernals of ideas for my place.

Like other folks, I really like the drappery, and although I wouldn't large K my house, it seems to fit with your theme. Keep having fun.

I think it's adorable, and more kudos to you because it was done on a budget. I don't get all the snarky comments about Utah and the letter K. I love the fabrics you've used and the pops of kelly green.

I love almost everything in your house, especially the bright colors and amazing fabrics.

The rude comments are really unappealing.

I think she did a great job, the place looks clean, airy and bright. The letter K is fine the nasty comments aren't......didn't your mom tell you "if you have nothing nice to say...." I think constructive critisism is fine but no need for snarkiness :)

there are some things I LOVE about this house (the credenza, the curtains, the airplanes...and the cute K's) and other aspects that don't really speak to me...however, overall, this is a fab house tour. :-) lol, I wish I knew people *in real life* with as good taste as Kirsten...I hate spending time in ugly houses.

Looks great. Ignore the haters, you are never going to please everyone since everyone has different tastes. It would probably be comical to see many of their homes. :-)

oh my gosh! YES PLEASE!!! I'll take everything about her house! I LOVE it! It's a perfect blend of transitional and eclectic. She has done a wonderful job on her home and is a total inspiration!

it feels a little bit too much IKEA and thought out to me.

Love that divine office. Pleased to have found her Blog.

On the surface this house is lovely, organized and chic. However, with thought there are two things I noticed: 1) It's very stylized. 2) Some masculinity is missing.

I love the big Ks on the Expedit, and the office in general.

Wow are those photos overbrightened though!

I appreciate how Kirsten has used personal touches in her home - that's what "home" is all about. A great example of using beautiful color and pattern in the home.

Your living room reminds me of joi's living room

Love all the bright colors, this proves that you don't have to stick to one color theme! Love all the blues.

nicely done, i for one love the injection of color - as a mom to to two girls under 3 I love her family friendly theme. i don't think its Utah, instead i think its more universal: fresh and appealing.

love the crib! where's it from?

I like it. Nice job, nice colours, I like the use of the letters. Love the clock.

I love the fabrics and colours you chose. They all look great!

Would you care to supersize your letter "K"?
