cozy.

man, i know most atlantans are going absolutely stir crazy right about now.  everyone's been cooped up since sunday night...and the roads are still a total MESS!  it's times like these that you really reap the benefits of designing and decorating a cozy home.  we'll be house-hunting later this month, and i know i'll have my work cut out for me trying to accomplish that at a new pad.  here are some rooms that i'll be trying to emulate.

this would be the perfect spot to take a nap or catch up on the latest us weekly, oh i mean new york times.


fireplace + adjacent bar = instant warmth in more ways than one.  loving the pops of color.


this looks like a great place to lounge with the fam and some hot chocolate (after rush swipes everything off that coffee table).


i'd say this room is cozy; so much so that if i had one i don't think i'd ever leave it...can you imagine?  a dressing room with an open closet and a vanity.  heaven.


i love a dining area with benches.  there's something so fun and warm about sitting right next to another person while eating.  we have fabric-covered benches on the sides of our dining room table right now, and i fear that rbb will never let me have them again (no back support, whatev)...but i do love them so!


this kitchen is so fab.  i picture a kid sitting on each of those stools asking what mama's making for dinner.


these curtains slay me.  and the headboard is very similar to my existing one...i would just need the lucite legged benches, the fur throw, the lucite lamp and the sleek bedside table.  i'm pretty much there?


gah, i really like pedestal sinks...but the no storage argument; what can you do?  oh, insert lovely armoire with painted interior...that's what you do.


can't forget little man's bedroom.  i adore the whimsical fabric and those monogrammed pillows.  all it needs is a...


tee pee!!!


stay warm and cozy out there!  brrr.
xoxo
