Bookshelf: Spring Home Decor Inspiration

If you’re looking for some home decor inspiration this spring, these recently published books offer plenty of beautiful ideas! This is the perfect time of year to start thinking about any interior design makeovers on your wishlist, so let's see what's new on the bookshelf.

A House in the Country

Although this gorgeous Greek Revival house in the hills of Millbrook, New York, looks like it was built a long time ago, it is in fact a new house created by architect Peter Pennoyer and his wife, interior designer Katie Ridder. The illustrated book tells the story of how it all came together and how Pennoyer used historical and classic Greek Revival houses as a basis, but put his own updated twist on his house to suit modern needs. The landscape is drawn from the style of traditional English cottage gardens, and the book includes a pullout of the garden plan if you want to try a similar approach yourself!

Wanderlust: Spring Interiors That Bring the World Home

We import antique French furniture and antiques and home decor from other parts of the world too, so we are on board with the title of this book! Designer Michelle Nussbaumer takes readers on a tour of interiors inspired by travel and furnished with antiques and other treasures from all around the world.

I love the cover of the book. The featured spaces inside are influenced by travels in Paris, Rome, Africa, China and Mexico. The chapter titles, including Sailing to Byzantium, Finding Shangri-la, and Dreaming in Color give a hint of the exotic flavor of the book!

Amelia Handegan: Rooms

Amelia Handegan is an interior designer based in Charleston, South Carolina, so she feels like a virtual neighbor! Handegan has restored many historic homes in Charleston and this new book presents an insight into her eclectic interiors. She likes to mix up Old World details, fabrics and finishes with antiques, cultural collectibles and modern furnishings.

Houses in the book include a beach cottage on Folly Island, SC, a Blue Ridge Mountain rustic cabin and a refurbished 18th Century Virginian plantation house. Handegan has been on the House Beautiful magazine 100 Best Designers in America list and in the Robb Report Guide to the World’s Top 40 Interior Designers so here's a chance to find out why!

My creative juices are flowing already, and I hope you are ready to dig in for spring home decor inspiration too! Please tell us about any home decor projects on your list this year in the comments box - we'd love to hear about your plans.
