A few years ago, Christine Dovey decided to sell all of of her furniture and start from scratch with only pieces that inspire her.

This former teacher turned stylist, decorator and artist lives in Ontario and describes her style as a “blushy cocktail of delicate pretty mixed with a dash of modern edge.”

  1. Stunning! What a beautiful style! I wonder what my husband would do if I sold all of our furniture that doesn’t inspire me…because his leather recliner would be the first thing to go! Ha! Life to the full! Melissa

  2. I have loved her home for so long. It’s one of my all time favorites and I have to keep going back to look at it frequently. It’s so feminine, beautiful and unique. Love everything and would move in 😉

  3. As you stated Kelly, love the seamless mixture of the old and new…..the less expensive items with high quality pieces…truly an art ! Her home is definitely her canvas, a masterpiece. Truly a wonderful tour and treat for us today!!..Thanks Kelly and have a great weekend!!…

  4. I was oooing and ahhhing my way through her home, then just sat in stunned envy when we came to those antique sliding doors. Now that is something I want in my home, now!
