Breathtaking white French Country Kay O'Toole kitchen in Lonny by Patrick Cline

Home Decor Inspiration: Kay O'Toole Houston Home

Before we dive into the interior design

inspiration and genius of creative dynamo

Kay O'Toole, an apology.

I totally goofed in that last post

when I swear I was not drunkblogging,

but rather my nerves WERE thoroughly frazzled

and I foolishly relied on Pinterest for

the source credits.

Sad but true for me occasionally as a very human blogger.

To cut to the chase....

I didn't recognize the inspiring kitchen above

as the very same exquisite one below,

designed by Kay O'Toole

which occupies real estate on

every tasteful pin board on planet earth.

I apologize for the error (attributing it to

Houston designer Eleanor Cummings

and not Ms. O'Toole) and

will strive to do better...because

though I don't take myself overly seriously,

I respect and honor the interior

designers who put their names to

projects we admire online.

Lonny featured Kay O'Toole's incredible

Houston home in 2013, and the images

you are seeing here are from their

"Neutral Territory" article which,

if you think about it, is rather

timely conceptually, given America's

division and political climate at

the moment...what if somehow a

neutral territory emerged (and I am

not suggesting a war or agression

aimed at a group of people!) which

neutralized the negativity and hate

we see hurled back and forth?

NEUTRAL TERRITORY...

a Switzerlandish babystep into peace,

which so often precedes a pouring

out of loving kindness.

That is my wish today and the spirit

in which these words were posted.

And thank you, blogland for

forgiving all the errors and

oopsidaisies I try to avoid. :)

Kay O'Toole's Houston home is based upon a

1700s New Orleans French Quarter home,

and she discusses it right here.
