HGTV Green Home

Thursday, April 30th, 2009

Who wouldn’t want to win a whole house- especially when it’s the HGTV Green Home in Port St. Lucie, Florida? Already decorated and pimped out with all the latest and greatest in green products, all you’d have to do it turn the key (and pay the tax bill- which might be an issue!) Ahhh, never mind the messy details- I’ll be entering every day anyways!

Loving the stripes paired with the white sunburst mirror in the foyer, with just a hint of animal print!

Not a big fan of the living room- looks a bit anemic for a Floridian space…

Loving this vignette with the cane back chair, natural wood table, sleek lamp and classic bust- a great mix of styles and textures!


I love this lounge space- a couple of bright chaises sitting in front of some wine coolers with fantastic throw pillows and Stray Dog Designs lamp? I’d stay here 24/7. Wino alert.


The natural wood ceiling shown here is quite something!

Loving the horse print…

A sleek kitchen

A darling master bedroom (I would have done a more fun rug-Weinrib if money were no object!)



This little girl’s room is so bright and cheery- I love the mix of shades of pink and orange.


If one of you wins, can I please come visit? :)
