If My Blog Was A Room – Next Up – A Thoughtful Place

March 23, 2011 by Amber Filed Under: Uncategorized Leave a Comment

I have enjoyed continuing the series If My Blog Was A Room, where I pose the question- If your blog was a room, what would it look like? I am happy to announce the next wonderful blogger in the series… Courtney from A Thoughtful Place! I love reading her blog and seeing her beautiful, amazing DIY projects and design inspirations. When I read her posts, I feel as if I’ve known her for years! Here is Courtney’s beautiful blog header:

And here is what she came up with! Take it away, Courtney!

When Amber from Simple Dwellings asked me to be a part of this creative series, I jumped at the chance. How fun to imagine my blog being an actual space. Too bad I couldn’t really narrow it down very well! You’ll have to bear with me!




First and foremost, my blog would have an amazing guest room. I would want visitors to feel pampered and relaxed. More than anything,  I would want a space where everyone felt as if they wanted to stay forever.  I think these do the trick. There is definitely an element of connecting the outside with the inside in both of these spaces.

These two images from Traditional Home capture the simple and fresh feeling I hope my blog has. They are formal and yet very comfortable and casual at the same time.

And this space has all the elements of a traditional home, but with an unexpected pop of color and whimsy. I think it says, “Sit down and stay a while!”

And lastly, if my blog were a room, it would be a place to entertain and enjoy friendship. I could spend hours hosting parties behind those French doors or sitting and relaxing with a glass of wine and a dear friend on these chairs. Everything about it is exactly my taste.

Thanks for letting me have fun with this, Amber!

Can you believe it… I wrote a blog post!!! 😂 Can you believe it… I wrote a blog post!!! 😂 Head over to my blog (link in bio) to see what’s been going on with all things Amber B Design, including this bookcase beauty in the office of #ProjectClassicLiving #amberbdesign #coastalliving #myballardstyle
In my last post, I hinted at a new plan for the li In my last post, I hinted at a new plan for the living room. Now that the ladder has been relocated to the family room, this corner is definitely in need of some height. I almost went with the idea of a tree and while I love it in other homes, I just didn’t see it here. So I went on Pinterest in search of inspiration and @studiomcgee to the rescue! I love the idea of a pedestal with a vase and maybe some branches, instead of a tree. I can switch up the accessories on the pedestal and I think it’s the winner! Inspiration in the next slide. #amberbdesignathome #coastalliving
I have always liked to shop around my home, moving I have always liked to shop around my home, moving things to different rooms and making them feel like new accessories. It breathes new life into a space, even with subtle touches. I switched the living room and family room table lamps and I like the larger scale lamp in here! I have fun plans for the living room, which I’ll share soon. Happy Friday!! #amberbdesignathome #loveyourhabitat #SMmakelifebeautiful #howyouhome #bhghome #hgtv #coastalliving
Once the Christmas tree is down, I always feel lik Once the Christmas tree is down, I always feel like the room is so bare. This year, we had it to the left of the television and I really feel like that space is now so empty. I tried the living room ladder in its place and I love it! But the living room needs it there too. What to do?! Maybe a tall plant in one of the spaces?! Two ladders within feet of each other?! 😂 #amberbdesignathome #coastalliving #howyouhome #SMmakelifebeautiful #loveyourhabitat #bhghome
