T.G.I.T

Every Thursday I'm going to post a few inspirational photos for everyone to drool over.
I found these while looking back at a Country Living issue from June of 2005. The house is owned by a woman named Michelle Joy, and it's located in Mauricetown, New Jersey.

The mirror collection going up the staircase wall is such a great use of space, don't you think?
It really keeps the room feeling light and airy.



The table in the Dining Room is an old barn door, topped with glass and set on porch posts from Home Depot. Genius! The antique library cases holding her creamy china were purchased at an auction for $200. Lucky Duck!



And check out her pantry door, I'm obsessed with it!

I went back to look at your exterior shot again & I have to say, it's a great house! Tons, TONS of potential, I can see why you bought it. Have fun working on it, it will be totally worth it.

Oh, my. What a door for a pantry! Can you imagine? I have very pedestrian sliding closet doors on mine. I'm feeling very discontented now... -Julia

Great blog! I found you on Cote de Texas.
I think Paula Deen has a similar screen door on her pantry. Great idea.
