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.
