I loved this house when I saw it in House beautiful and I love it today reading your post! I can't wait to follow your progress on your "little rancher"! Also, I just read your post from a while back about Karin Blake. I have followed her for years and love her style - the mix of country antiques used in a minimal way is wonderful. Sometimes in the current design world I feel like I am the only one who has loved and still loves all of my Mexican things, folk art, and quirky collections. Reading your blog I don't feel so alone. Thank you.

Hi Kelley,
Thanks for sharing this home with us. Here, I can't always get the American interior magazines that I would LOVE to loook at and am always appreciative when someone features something on their blog. Without going back and looking at the previous post, did you not show us some gorgeous fabric that you were going to do something with (?)....if my wonky memory serves me correctly, the fabrics you did show, I think will still have the feel to the home featured above...anyway, can't wait to see what you do!! It's all exciting, isn't it, I think this is what I love, nutting things out...deciding what's going to happen next!! I do wonder though if I was presented with a room, what would I do? Would I just panic on the inside and go blank...Do you instantly know what you are generally going to do with a room? Sorry, to bombard you with questions but it's just that I have wondered for a while, if that does/can happen....everytime I go somewhere in my mind I look at a space and think what I would do with it...try not to be too noticeable if I'm in someone's house (hahaha). Anyway, enjoyed this post. Thanks
Take care

Gorgeous. My dream is to own a home in Ojai. We have family there and everytime we visit I NEVER want to leave. In my opinion it is the best place to live in California! ;)
