Colour My World

How gorgeous are these 2 beach cottages in the Bahamas! Ostentatious McMansions they're not, just honest, fun places to relax & enjoy.


Here's Tree House with its pretty balcony......

and turquoise & white shutters & french doors....

love the surprise of the chandelier in the dining room....

and the simple white kitchen....

and the turquoise bed & bench in the bedroom & the white-washed beams....

and the cute little bedroom tucked under the eaves.


Now here's Doll House, so cute in pink & white.....

with the pink kitchen curtains gently blowing in the breeze....


a splash of pink on the patio door.....

and more pink & crisp white......

While I don't think Doll House would suit the boys Fishing & Footy weekends away, I just couldn't resist it! Two delightful little gems to escape to.

  2. How gorgeous! Wouldn't it be fun to stay at one of these places? Love the pink, green and white colour scheme of one of the rooms - if I had a daughter, that was the colour scheme I was planning to use!
