Cookie's Nesting

Cookie's latest home is up and offers a glimpse into the light-filled home of three English sisters (8, 6 and 22 months). The girls' charming rooms reflect their individual personalities with a delightful mishmash of colors, eras and styles.

The girls' mother, Shella, self-describes her approach to decorating as "eclectic" and she is an always on the lookout for vintage and second-hand items at flea markets, thrift stores and eBay. The addition of so many 'formerly loved' items lends their home an effortless authenticity and ease and breathes a welcoming feeling throughout.

See Cookie's full tour which includes many other rooms in their home and read more about Shella's decorating philosophy and inspirations here.

That home is in UK's Ideal Home magazine this month as well. It's really gorgeous, I love all the colours.

Adorable house. I would like to know how she makes those daybeds so neatly, though.
