We're talking live trees in the kitchen and dining room, wreaths and a big wooden Santa in the master bedroom and bathroom, and leftover sprigs of evergreen tucked behind paintings everywhere. Keeping things artistic but measured, and fun without being too serious is actually the designer's everyday decorating approach. I'd love to see how his home looks the rest of the year, wouldn't you?? The robin’s egg-blue walls are gorgeous. I especially love it in the kitchen as a backdrop to the dinnerware and bottles.

The kitchen underwent a huge transformation over the summer. To give the space a fresh and bright feeling, she had the cabinets painted a soft, creamy off-white. I loooove how it turned out! The delightful family room has the same happy vibe of the kitchen...I am loving bursts of fresh color! Sita has lots more great photos of her home taken by <a href="http://www.paigedavisphotography.com/" target="_blank">Paige Davis</a> over at her <a href="http://www.thefamilyroomdesign.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">blog</a>, so head on over to finish the tour.
