Priscilla's Light and Crisp Home

Playing up her homes strengths, Priscilla keeps her decor light and crisp which makes each space feel airy and spacious. She tells that she moved in recently but once the other rooms are "House Tour" ready, she'll invite us back to see the rest...

A mix of vintage finds, DIY crafts and hand painted striped walls, each space is inspirational and fun. Stacked hard shell suitcases act as a table for a metal fan. In the opposite room, a staircase is the perfect spot for a display of mice decals which reads playful and unexpected. Neutral but eye-catching pendant lights in each room pull focus and set a crisp and clean tone for Priscilla's home. Laying down a cozy vibe outside, the deck is lust-worthy. A comfy couch, pillows and some shade (with a basket of blankets and candles at the ready when the sun goes down) feels just right. In addition, we love how Priscilla translates her great style with handmade cards (from fabric) found here.

Is that a roll of fusible that hangs under the ironing board. Source for the board/roll pretty please? Love...

Looks like a roll of quilt batting, not fusible material. She has a quilting template/ruler hanging in front of it.

Hi everyone ~ The ironing board was made by my oh-so-fabulous husband. It's actually an Ikea table with trestle legs. We bought a piece of plywood big enough hang over the edges of the table top so we could attach the hooks to the underside. The fusible webbing hangs on the hook with a metal bar that runs though the middle of the roll. I covered the plywood with batting and a durable canvas.
Hope that helps!

What a perfect home office. I love the colors and all the textures. The gray striped wall has me salivating a bit. And ditto on the stairs. How fun. :)

Where are the wires from the computer? How do they make it to the wall? It's not visible in the photo and I always wonder about that in "island desk" setups.

Hi SweeetTea ~ it's a jute rug so we put the cords through it! The cords run down the legs of the table and right under the rug to the plug in the back left corner.

Funny, I was smitten with Lockette right around the time you were:
