This is one of the very best house tours - EVER! I am truly inspired. I have a small farm house, so I appreciate the great ideas you've given me. Thank you for sharing your lovely home!

I like the curtain and blind working together in the bedroom and I love that vintage bedspread. Great idea - the frame earring holder - I have 2 frames like that; I will have to try that. Love your house! Thanks for sharing!!:)

Love your home! What a great job you have done pulling so much together. The pops of color look great and refreshing against the gray background. I love the bedspread texture and color.

I was reading some of the comments. I remember when AT first went online. I used to get useful information from comment threads on my favorite home tours. Comment threads on AT should be focused on the featured home and a viewer exchange of ideas, likes, and dislikes, not judgements on the residents and threads of outer limit conversations (i.e., animal issues). If this is a place where anything goes, I'm not going to participate - I'll just look at the pictures!

To these residents: Thanks for sharing your home! You look like you have great personalities and your home certainly reflects it! :)

I love the kitchen cabinets and appliances. What color green is that on the cabinets? Love the concrete bathroom and the reading nooks, so many things to LOVE about this house!! Thanks for sharing:):)

What a charming home! Charming couple too :) I love the dining area - the floors look beautiful, and I love the dining set. You guys have really turned this place into a home. I love the little deck you are building out back - yes, what a view!

Is there a possibility you can buy this house? You would have alot more freedom to do more - I bet you would really turn into something! You've been there 7 months - and already you've done so much. Great job! Thanks for sharing :)

I love how you pulled everything together so creatively. Love the colors, artwork and vintage pieces. How fun this space is - lucky baby!

@Eucadoriana1 - you are a hoot! I put my babies in drawers when we'd stay at hotels. Put a pillow down inside - they were perfect!

BTW, I just read a couple of comments that I thought were really mean- there is nothing wrong with showing the homeowners in their homes - this is not overdone here. I think it's nice to see the artists in their own canvases and backdrops. Great job Tolly! :)

Would love to spend an afternoon in this lovely home, makes me wish for the good ol' days. Love the references for the room furniture and accessories. Vintage EVERYTHING except for the Myers Soap and updated shower curtain.

Thanks for sharing! (Was Myers around back then, perhaps with a different label??)

I am from the south, used to live in Charleston, love the Low-Country. Thank you AT for showing us something different and REAL - something where not everything is made by West Elm, Dwell or IKEA - something rather with history, charm, and soul.

Holly's Vibrant, Personal Twist on Traditional Style House Tour
7/3/12 7:21 PM

Glad to see a home featured on AT from one of the Carolinas! I'm an AT fan from NC.:) Wow - this home is just lovely and Holly is so creative. I picked up alot of good ideas here. Thanks Holly! I'm definitely checking out the blog. I love repurposing and updating older pieces. My favorite thing is your sign about books in the home and also the vintage piece you painted yellow to hold your bar items. Cool! The colors are fantastic, and it was bold of you to go for so many colors, they all come together really well. Way to go!:):) Thanks for sharing!!:):):)

I really enjoyed this tour! I love the creativity that sparks, the light backdrops, furniture, and colors - the spaces and arrangements, so nice. This home and the communal arrangements seem very "Bloomsbury" like. The outdoors spaces are really nice - love the rock formation that was molded into a bench/sitting area - spectacular!

Now guys, the kitchen is very nice and functional. A splash of contemporary, but layered with coolness and a spectacular stove. I want a stove like that. Vintage kitchens, like mine, are not always set-up to be so functional for today's busy families. God bless them for having the smarts to do that. When can I move in??? Ha! Thanks for inspiring this southern, east-coast girl and for sharing your lovely home!

What a great place and sense of style! Love how you just aligned your decorating with the structure and detail already in place. Cool furniture - antiques and repurposed pieces. Splendid:):) Thanks for the tour!

I LOVE this! Beautiful and classy. I had already decided to paint my bedroom a charcoal gray - but had some reservations - this would be a nice touch and would lighten up the look. Thanks for the idea and for sharing:)

A VISUAL FEAST! So many things I love about this house, wish I could take a real tour! I love the character, the placement of so many great, found objects, and I really dig the taxidermy and how this homeowner-designer brings back these creatures to a new life. Fantastic! This house has a museum feel which I really like. LOVE the kitchen. Love everything, thanks for sharing!!

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Absolutely LOVE!! Colors, whimsy-ness, and the ingenious bedroom in a closet. Adorable kitchen area. One of my very favorites by far!
