Open House Sunday

  A french influenced house in Highland Park neighborhood of Dallas, Texas. 
built in 1936
Houses are always at their best at dusk.
The glow of the lights from inside really add to the ambiance of this home.
The listing states that it was built in 1936 but it's obviously gone through many structural and cosmetic changes through the years.
  
This home is really decorated up and I think what makes this home interesting is that you can see 
so many decorating trends at work...I'll name them.
 
Such a cute front stoop. Let's start the trends here...
Colorful Painted front door.
Chalkboard Sign
 
 

 Now that we are in the living room...you can really see the french influence.
trending - greige
 more greige
 cloches - orchids
 chandeliers abound in this home 
trend alert - plates on the wall
 Some may say that a white kitchen is a trend but to me...it's just classic.
 a little industrial design in the room in the barstools
 white bedding
 orchids and that ballroom chair
 chalkboard wall
 patchwork wallpaper and a zebra rug
 starburst mirror and a white bear rug


I'm very surprised to see a television mounted to a tree in the backyard. 
Are these outdoor tv's THAT water proof?

Loving some of these elements and decor. It says everything is bigger in Texas and has some coziness mixed in!
Happy Sunday!
