Fresh, clean earth tints form a soothing colour palette for today's country living. Shades of Clay, Slate, French grey, Shutter Blue, Mulberry, Damson, Willow leaf and Gooseberry green set against chalky white add a contemporary twist to traditional country styling. Modern material such a stainless steel and aluminium contrast against the natural elements of pale stone and bleached wood. Here are a few of my most recent finds starting with the heart of the country home - the kitchen.

i love the post, like always. especially the lamps in the first pictures are great! i would really like them in our kitchen.
Glenda you really shouldn't have put the link through to the Neptune china, oh dear a major lust is developing here. I can resist most things (lie) but gorgeous china isn't one of them. Sublime images - all I will do this morning is scroll up and down and wonder how I can make my kitchen look more like some of the above. Perhaps the calm and restful modern colour choices are an effective antidote to modern life. We all want our homes to be sanctuary like and subtle. Big big hugs from here xxx
Absolutely perfect kitchen for the seaside, country or a great loft. I love the clean lines, the chalky finishes and the color tones.Really fabulous post, thank you
Very stylish colours.
I used to find greys too cold but I am warming to them lately and love them teamed with bleached timber. Adding tints of of colours to the grey makes them more appealing to me too.
Lovley collection of photos.

Oh this is so wonderful !
Your blog will be my guide in the next few months, I am sure.
We are making plans for our return to the US and our home buying is aimed at a very old house somewhere north of NYC. There are plenty of historic areas and old homes to choose from.But many need so much work , often work that will remove the ugly modernising touches.
I am all for stripping everything and leaving it natural or white and now I can use this particular for guidance.
I have fallen in love with a house online, it's claim to fame is it is the oldest house in the state. I think we are crazy :)
Beautiful as always Glenda!
I love the colors of the enamel pots from Garden Trading and the hanging wine rack is just brilliant!
Thank you for the gorgeous colors.....
Simone
I just love your style Glenda...

I just found your blog, I love it!! Will definitely be following you.
Hi Glenda
I love this post too and the softness and harmony of the colour scheme. The uniqueness of the space with corners and quirky little corners adds to the charm. The china is in keeping with the kitchen

J'aime beaucoup les teintes et les ambiances ! Les détails me font craquer, c'est toujours très plaisant de s'arrêter par chez vous.
Belle fin de journée *
Beautiful! Do you happen to know what type of flooring is used in the kitchen by border oak? I love it!
It's gorgeous isn't it! It looks like polished Travertine marble to me but I will ask Border Oak and post their response here. In the meantime you can view more photo's here: http://borderoak.com/#/case-studies/hampshire-holiday-home/
