I love the kitchen which appears to have just the right amount of everything open, and defiantly not over done.<br />Really an inviting open home with a quiet calming life.<br /><br />Yes so sad to lose all your presious belongings, and to pick out a few things in survival mode from your home is heart breaking. I was just talking about this to my daughter the other day, saying to her what would we crab and pack first with minimal time to do so...we really couldn't think fast enough at what we would take. Perhaps a bag of clothing and our Pia puppy and pray for the best.<br /><br />Thank you for an enlightening post.<br /><br />Xx<br />Bisous<br /><br />Doré Burlap Luxehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16134718817693134037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5134826733437250835.post-71631296495362092572015-03-12T18:43:17.295+02:002015-03-12T18:43:17.295+02:00What a gorgeous home!

However, at this juncture in my life I believe, like you mentioned, I could do with less. I have been paring down and believe I am happier for it. Minimalism is often misunderstood, as I discovered on a site called "The Minimalists". They (two young men) say that minimalism is simply living with things you need and love. They even go so far as to say if you love your collection of _____ [fill in the blank], keep it. <br />This home is very calming and looks to be very comfortable. You always find such lovely images. Happy mid-March!<br />xo,<br />KarenKarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08064699521293763744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5134826733437250835.post-46101859312830000092015-03-11T12:38:06.582+02:002015-03-11T12:38:06.582+02:00Live well is right.

There is something so comfortable, yet not cold about this house that stopped me in my tracks to take notes everywhere, in every room. Thanks so much. I'll be saving the entire post.<br />SamSam Hoffer / My Carolina Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15358601435867848753noreply@blogger.com
