If My Blog Was A Room – Next Up – West Pear Avenue

October 19, 2011 by Amber Filed Under: blog room series Leave a Comment

Happy Wednesday and welcome to the series If My Blog Was A Room… where I pose the challenge to think of your blog as an actual space. What would that space look like? I am so excited to have Holly here today, from her design blog West Pear Avenue. Holly’s blog is full of gorgeous design ideas, including her own beautiful design boards. I always smile when I read the thoughtful comments she leaves on my blog. I am happy to have met her through blogging! Here is her great blog header:

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

Hello Simple Dwellings readers! I am always so honored when asked to do a guest post, so you can imagine my excitement when Amber asked me to stop by today. I’ve really enjoyed following Amber’s blog and always enjoy her Why This Works series. Each week when I read Amber’s If My Blog Were a Room series, I always think it’s so interesting how each blogger interprets their room. It’s fun to daydream and imagine!

If My Blog Were a Room really got me thinking….I’ve only been blogging for about six months or so. West Pear Avenue was a name created and inspired by my family and my home. I like to think of it as an extension of my home and of me. A place where all are invited to stop in and hang out for a while. Perhaps a living area such as this one…

I love this bright, airy living area above. I would love to have a party with lots of appetizers and talk about anything and everything design. Lots of seating for all of us to sit and chit-chat.

A kitchen/dining area also comes to mind when I think of my blog as a room. A space where all are invited to congregate, eat, chat, eat some more, share conversation, and hours upon hours go by and no one looks at the clock because they’re having so much fun. Who better to set the stage than Sarah Richardson…

Oh Sarah, your designs make my heart skip a beat…better yet, if I’m having all of you over then I might as well invite the guest of honor Miss Sarah herself – how fun would that be!

My blog is also a place where I like to share ideas and inspirations, and I always love learning from other bloggers and getting ideas on what inspires them. I’d love to collaborate with some of my favorite designers and blog buddies, it would be fun to design a room together. We could do some design work in here…

And then once all of our hard work is done, we could go relax and have a drink or snack here…

 This was a fun exercise to envision my blog coming to life – I hope you enjoyed it! Thank you Amber for having me over today!

Thanks so much for being here, Holly! I also love everything Sarah Richardson does! And what a great idea to have bloggers get together and collaborate in a chic office space! Oh the fun we would have!  🙂 Definitely stop by Holly’s blog– you’ll be so happy you did!

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
