HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY! I LOVE THIS GUEST HOUSE!
So...this is where I am staying while in New Orleans! Wow! Right? This time when visiting for Mardi Gras, FF and her wonderful husband CCF have once again graciously invited me to stay at their grand home called the Wedding Cake House. In past visits, I've stayed in an upstairs guest suite in the main house...this time, I am honored to be one of the first (not the first but one of the first) to stay in their newly remodeled guest/pool house. I LOVE IT. It is regally traditional on the outside and it is perfectly cool, modern, hip, posh and chic on the inside...with light wood paneled walls, an open kitchen with stainless cabinetry, a 5 star hotel style upstairs bedroom complete with fine linens and a gorgeous modern marble bath. There is so much natural light that streams in from the French doors...it makes the space constantly bright and cheery. I feel like I've been staying in a posh boutique hotel made just for me!
I've told FF and CCF they made one error here with this guest house. By making the guest house so chic and well appointed, guests may never leave! Lucky for them, I do have a flight out later today...but if I had known before coming how nice the guest house is, I may have not booked a return flight. Hee hee!
Here are just a few photos of my temporary home while in New Orleans.
Portico to the guest house features stunning copper siding. (above)
The guesthouse's beautiful modern living room and open kitchen. The white sectional sofa is covered in a durable indoor/outdoor fabric to withstand the traffic from guests and pool house use. Love the lucite waterfall coffee table and the silver floor lamp! (above)
View to the backyard from the second floor balcony. Perfection. (above)
More photos to come from New Orleans...an elegant ball, a colorful parade and more!
P.S. I know the WEEKEND PHOTO is normally just one picture...this weekend required an exception to the rule.
