*There has been a change for the 'Tis The Season Holiday Home Tour'. To link your holiday home decorations see Stacey @EmbracingChange. The link on my page is for the Cowgirl Up Party. You are welcome of course to link at both!
Ranch, Porch, Cottage.
The style of these is a feeling, not muddy boots every day, but it also wouldn't be too far fetched at my Ranch to see a dirty pair plopped at the door.
I have always liked a rustic style, just about as much as I like all white or a French style, but I haven't perfected how to marry those looks together.
The Cowgirl Up ladies however have figured it out. They've got comfortable style partnered with just the right amounts of color and clean white and I've yet to see any muddy boots laying around at their Texas homes!
And guess who's a guest host for the Cowgirl Up party this week? Me!
I'm the grey one on the right. Really.
Welcome to Week 47
of
The Cowgirl Up! Link Party!
1 Party, 5 Blogs
Needless to say I'm quite honored to be guest posting for the Cowgirl Up party gals. They all have a style that I could get comfortable in... sipping coffee, a glass of wine, or just cracking open an ice cold beer. You can find me sipping and blogging around our ranch. It sits on 25 acres with a lake at one end, woods and field on the other and a house in the middle.

It's a little bit country.....
And a little bit rock 'n roll.....
You can find a blend of crisp white .....
Along with sticks......
And stones.....
I do a photo project or two....
And when we aren't covered in snow you can find me sipping something out here in the cedar porch....

What a great idea! Love this post. You are as clever with your words as you are with your decor. It all looks pretty awesome to me. I love not having a defined style, just do what feels good to you and it will make others feel good in your home too. Your land sounds like a vacation getaway. Your own lake??? I didn't know that tidbit. Happy New Year my friend! -K
ReplyDeleteOh, Bliss...you thrilled us over and over this year!
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to many more of your unique projects, not to mention your wit-
which is your biggest talent of all IMO.
Happy New Year!
Beautiful, Bliss! Is that a picture of the hoarfrost from the other morning? We had it here too. Gorgeous! Here's to a great 2013, girlfriend! I adore you and your style! MWAH!
