Home in Belgium

Sometimes I hesitate before posting a home. It might be because one or two of the rooms are not my style or there is something I definitely don't like even though I might love the rest of the house. Well, on this occasion this is my dilemma. I am against the display of dead animals, be it a head upon a wall or a hide on the floor. However, I've chosen to post it because I love the home more than I dislike stuffed animals (maybe the duck isn't stuffed?) and animal heads on walls.

So, here you have it, a lovely home in Belgium, just a few km from Brussels.

And today I'd also like to thank my friend Greet from Belgian Pearls who is a sweetie pie and recommended Inspiring Interiors to her readers in her post yesterday. If you don't know her blog yet (I'm sure you all do!) do yourself a favour and visit her. Each one of her posts is a gem, or rather a pearl. Thanks, Greet! ♥

The Guest Wing in Denmark

A beautiful grey Sunday, here in Peru. Hope you are enjoying your Sunday too. And we are off to the North of Copenhagen to visit this former royal summer palace. A couple live in the guest wing now, and have preserved its original features.


This bench is from the 1800s and was designed by German-Austrian Michael Thonet. The Danish Empire style table dates from the 1700s.




The antique tea cups are used every day.


On this window shade there is an image of the palace's main building as it was in the 1700s.


Original 1700s pine floors.


An antique shaving mirror stands on a small table in one of the halls.
A beautiful Sunday to you, my friends!

Restored Ancient Farmhouse

This farmhouse is located close to the Alpilles, in Provence, in the south of France. The date engraved on the lintel of the door confirms that part of this house is almost four centuries old. Of course, over the years it has been transformed and renovated. All that remains of the barn are a few walls and arched cart entrance of the property. Now it has a large pool accompanied by a small outbuilding.
