Have you ever seen Ree Drummond's Lodge on her site

its all this style -- done really well.
I'd take it all. Love that living room area.
I learned from many posts of rooms I found soothing here on AT, that the key was simply this:
Black, gray, white, brown, tan/camel, off-white/beige.
And sometimes an accent color. That room above has the dark red in the flower branches and the small lamp.
I feel more comfortable around those furnishings too, simply because they don't look delicate and usually are real sturdy. Not having to worry about cleaning as much or chipping a lacquer or mirror-finished cabinet.
Best of all, many of the items can be mixed in successfully with most people's current decor. Pull up the flokati or Angela Adams and put down a Native American rug. Drape the Pendleton blanket over the end of the bed or across the back of a neutral-toned sofa.
I know I'm years behind, but does anyone know where those pillows are from?
