Would you live in a pink house? Our circa 1875 Victorian-style farmhouse was pink when we first moved in 15 years ago. And although I didn’t mind since pink is my favorite color, we’ve since painted it a buttery yellow. I’m editing some photos of its exterior and hope to post them soon. For now, I’m giving a nod to our home’s history by celebrating pink houses.
What a darling home! From the pink clapboard to the white accents, this home has “quaint” written all over it.
I’m lovin’ the details like the horse-tying post, picket fence and graceful arbor.
Savannah, Georgia has some of the most amazing residential architecture in the United States, so beautiful that General Sherman didn’t have the heart to burn it down during the Civil War. Travel quite a bit north to a cozy, Yankee town just 60 miles west of the heart of Chicago, whose gracious homes remind me…
Are you ready for some bungalow eye candy? Some of you know that I traveled to Madison, Wisconsin last weekend and wow! Right now it’s my favorite small city. I have more posts to come about the trip (that I think you’ll enjoy), but today I want to focus on all of the cozy bungalow…
Today is the day I’m finally getting around to sharing the rest of my Lake Geneva walking tour! There are so many historic home exteriors in this town to enjoy. I’m toying with the idea of going back before Christmas to snap pictures of the houses decorated for the holidays. Above is a gorgeous…
Last weekend was my grandson’s first birthday! My daughter decided on a lumberjack party theme and rented a little log cabin in Riverside, Illinois. It was such a cute party and I took lots of pictures which I’ll share in a future post. After the party, hubby and I toured the tree-lined streets and of…
When you drive or walk around neighborhoods, do you find yourself drawn to one particular style of home exterior? Â Or maybe you’re drawn to a specific color of houses. Today I’ve got a collection of home exterior styles to share with you. I’d love to hear what style you prefer most! Photo by JB Architecture…
I have a fun blog post for you today! Get ready to enjoy exploring six amazing tiny houses where you can see both the outside and inside of each home. Much to my delight, I found several more of these smaller homes that I’ll share in the future. Take a look and in the comments,…
What totally adorable pink houses! They are terrific! Thanks for linking this lovely pinkness to Potpourri Friday! I hope you will make it a weekly party stop! I am a new friend and follower!
Well, I can hardly believe it is Thanksgiving already. Seems like we just planted our flowers…I am so very thankful for many ways God has blessed me…I give HIM all the Glory!I ask for many blessings to come your way through this holiday season! Kandy
I love this post. There is a pink bungalow on my street that I adore so much… it reminds me of picture #2 you have posted here. I actually have had lunch at the Olde Pink House and it was delicious! Happy Pink Saturday!
Oh my goodness Jennifer I don’t know which one I like best!!! I could definitely live in a pink house. I love the one from the Sears catalog. Happy Pink Saturday..xo Tami
Jennifer some of these are gorgeous! Although I love pink, I prefer it in smaller amounts. I expect your yellow house is much prettier now than it’s former pink self. I adore Hilton Head Island and haven’t been back since my hubby passed away three years ago.
Love all those pink houses and church. The Pink House in Savannah is a great restaurant I love to dine there and of course, love that it is pink. The house in Charleston is one I walk by often. I love those two historic cities and many houses are pink especially in Charleston.Wish I could live in a pink house.
WOW! Just when I thought I had picked my favorite, nope. Too many darn cute pink houses. I could live in a pink house. Not so sure how the hubby would feel. I bet your house is darling yellow. We visited S. Carolina 3 years ago. I brought home a painting of my favorite house I had seen there. It was yellow with red accents. TOO CUTE! It hangs in our master bedroom.
LOVE…LOVE…LOVE all these pink houses. I would in a minute live in a pink house, especially a Victorian! When done right (as all of the above are) pink is marvelous. I live in an area with tons of Victorians and there was this cute house and just the other day they painted the trim pink- bubble gum pink – not the right pink…I almost crashed the car when I saw it! Thanks for linking up…I am a new follower here!
I also love the third house. It looks a lot like the doll house of my daughter. Hehe. The color of the roof and siding make a beautiful contrast. The pink siding made the dark roof stand out even more. And the white trims create a good lining between the two main colors. It’s perfect, and I think my wife would love this since she loves pink!

I loved them all! I remember growing up and our house was painted a light pink!
