You just don't see that sort of thing up here in Minnesota and I love it. Just like I love all the interiors! So fresh and relaxed, but totally elegant. And don't get me started on that porch with the fireplace and blue ceiling! What a dream!

The home was designed by architect <a href="http://wertheimer-architect.com/" target="_blank">Lewin Wertheimer</a> and brought to life by the homeowners Chip and Bethany Herwegh.

She's been a faithful reader of mine for many years, and I'm truly honored to know she frequently referred to my blog when decorating their fabulous home. The turquoise hutch may be my favorite thing here...I love the mirrored glass! The kids rooms are super fun too. I love all the thoughtful details...you know they are having a blast there! You can read more about the home (including fun behind-the-scenes tidbits) over at <a href="http://talesofaretromodernhousewife.blogspot.com/2012/05/glamorous-housewife-in-country-living.html" target="_blank">The Glamourous Housewife</a>!
