Annapolis Chinoiserie

Megan Winters - Traditional Home

 
My daughter is house hunting in one of my favorite places anywhere - Annapolis, Maryland. With its historical charm, Chesapeake Bay setting, some of the world's best sailing, Chesapeake blue crabs, and the beaux art Naval Academy, it is an extraordinary spot. I envision a home with lots of navy blue, stripes, dark woods, gleaming old hardwood floors, and blue and white Chinese porcelain. Nautical preppy chinoiserie. The blue and white star tiles I used for my entrance would be perfect.

My lanai is looking the part too.

    1. Annapolis is wonderful but the market is nuts there and everywhere. I'm glad I am not house hunting!

  6. At first glance I thought all of the stripes in these pictures were black and white, until Anonymous mentioned navy and white. Anyway, they are all beautiful. Ralph Lauren makes a sofa with wide navy and white stripes that I think is just stunning. I especially love navy with pink. Diana Vreeland once said that pink is the navy blue of India.

    Happy Mother's Day, Beth. I hope your daughter finds the Annapolis home that she adores.
