Such a pretty home and you get bonus points for making the most of a rental, and double bonus point for moving with a giant piano. I would cringe every time they moved it. Love your home, well done!
Kathy, I ALWAYS love seeing your home. Your eye for mixing and matching accents is so fantastic. Love the summer refresh and your master bedroom side table is superb.
I am always so amazed at what a brilliant job you do making your rental feel everything but temporary. It looks like you’ve been there a decade and plan to stay forever in the best possible way!
I am so jealous that you are so close to the water! I adore the floral wallpaper on your kitchen cabinets and the campaign dresser in your living room. Your bedroom is so bright and colorful – perfect for summer 😉
I love every bit of your home! Having that beautiful view and all that natural light absolutely makes up for the vinyl floor! I also spied that awesome wood sofa table, and I want!
Wow, I totally love the wood pieces in your bedroom. They are so incredibly unique. Also, I really like how you turned the cabinet sideways in the living room. I would have never thought to do that!
I always enjoy your home tours! Your home is so bright and airy and I love how you style it. Your photographs are beautiful, too. I think the linoleum would be preferable to carpeting, especially since it’s white, which always looks good. I hope you’ll post about your girls’ weekend soon–I love when you share posts about living and traveling in Japan. 🙂
I am constantly amazed by your home and the way you are able to take a temporary rental space and make it look like you’ve been tweaking and perfecting the design of it for a lifetime. You have serious skills my friend!
Kathy! This was such a beautiful tour. You have done a great job at making this rental your home and the extra beach pics and neighborhood pictures are great for memories and would look so pretty framed. You are so talented and your pics are always on point!
How did I miss you were in JAPAN?! LOVE it!!!! I don’t know where to start with your home!! It’s so fun and interesting and curated! I love the buddha head and the raw edge wood sofa table! The bench at the foot of your bed is A+ also… Now that I know where you live, I REALLY want to come over. 😉
lol, anytime. We don’t get too many visitors but it sure is beautiful here. The sofa table, buddha head, and bench all came from Okinawa. 🙂 It’s so much fun shopping on this island.
Thanks Karen! We found that little bench at a local boutique where everything was expensive except for that bench. Imported from Indonesia I believe. It’s teak.
Your home is gorgeous, Kathy! I’ve seen bits and pieces before (like your fabulous kitchen cabinets), but never all together. It’s so bright and happy! And love that you’re so close to the ocean. Perfect.
Thank you Arielle! I love opening the curtains in the morning and seeing the ocean first thing. Then I step outside and am covered in sweat in seconds bc of the humidity. lol
You have such a lovely home, it’s an inspiration! The neighbourhood looks peaceful too. I love the mixture of styles and the muted colours, especially the way the kitchen chairs are painted! Great job and thank you for sharing 🙂

Thanks Maggie! I do have some stories about moving that piano. This last move was great though. The Japanese were very efficient and professional.

Thank you Steph! I’m going to miss this place when we move in another year or so.
so lovely! that pale pink in the china cabinet…. LOVE!
Thanks Cassie!! The pink was a little darker than I had imagine but with all of the sunlight, it’s perfect.

AW!! Thanks Melissa. That made my day! xoxo

Thanks Sarah! The wood is a piece of Okinawan pine that we picked up here and I just attached hairpin legs. 🙂

AW! Thanks friend. This island is so pretty, even the dirty concrete houses look picturesque. xoxo

Your home is so charming!! I’m particularly in love with your little turkish rug and the bench at the foot of your bed!
