house beautiful

here are some pics of (my cousin) kari's beautiful home.

she has graciously allowed to share them with you.

let me just say that these pics don't do her home justice.

kari helped me (soooo much) when we bought our current home.

we made countless trips to fabric stores, furniture stores, and tar-jay!

she has a knack for decorating and an eye for all things gorgeous.

kari is so talented and has been asked to help decorate many other homes.

you're about to see why.....

back yard/patio

(and look at the fabulous windows)

...and yes, that's my super big gulp in the background...sorry!....

there's something cute in every corner of this house...

the house is gorgeous, but it's not "stuffy." they live in it. kari and jason are amazing hosts and their home is so warm and inviting. i didn't get photos of every room in the house, but you get the idea....this girl knows what she's doing! every light fixture, faucet, wall hanging, etc. was kari's idea!

*thanks, kar, for allowing me to show these!! i think your house should be in the next issue of house beautiful.*
