I love featuring real life homes that are done by women as crazy about decorating as all of us are. Today we meet Terri (known as Tee by her friends) who blogs at Browne Eyed Belle and her beautiful dream home built in 2009. Originally from Louisiana, Tee and her family now reside in Charlotte, North Carolina, where they built their dream home. It truly is a gorgeously beautiful palatial home that Terri has had fun working on, making it her own for her family. And it shows!
Traditional, but not stuffy AT all, it has touches of French influence and is just downright magazine worthy. I first saw Terri’s gorgeous bedroom when she linked it up to one of my parties and I had to explore further in her home and then I found all the rest of these inspiring pics.
Doesn’t this look like a French chateau? Yep, right there in Charlotte, NC. 
What a welcoming entry. 
Snow last winter. 
Beautiful family room with outdoor vistas in green. 
Which looks onto the amazing kitchen.
Check out those oh so pretty lanterns in this space.
A drool worthy farmhouse sink.
There is nothing NOT to love about Terri’s entire house. 
Terri has put together some sweet vignettes and that attention to detail is wonderful. 
Even in the mudroom is outstanding, lots of great features.
Here’s the bedroom shot that caught my eye. I had to see more of this amazing home! 
I’m so glad I did. 
It is a treat for the eyes. The master bath is spacious and there are not enough words to describe a home like this. 
It could totally grace the pages of Traditional Home magazine. 
Terri has a phenomenal eye for details and putting it all together. 
I hope you enjoyed the tour of Terri’s home and I know she would love to hear from all of you too. She’s a funny lady with a witty sense of humor, so hop on over and say hello.
Don’t we all love company?
What a wonderful house!!! I love it!!!

Beautiful! Would love to see more of that closet- wow!
What I notice is that Terri doesn’t get too formal, even though she uses lots of formal elements. There’s always a sense of casualness — the mismatched mirrors in the bath, the tulip that flops over onto the tabletop, the wicker and branches and feathers and shells, an asymmetrical bed pillow arrangement, two different bedside tables, these are things I think make her home look friendly.
I’m going over to her site. Thanks for sharing her.
I love that she’s achieved such a welcoming informal feel even with all the loveliness. Adore the lanterns in the kitchen! Thanks, Rhoda for sharing. 🙂
Really? Wow! I admire this woman for doing it all in such a perfect and comfortable way! I can see that this is a REAL house for a REAL family. And I love that!
Enjoy your weekend, my friend!

Tee’s home really is gorgeous. It was so fun to see her featured here. I love those lanterns too!
Absolutely gorgeous. Each room outdoes the other. I love that there are so many windows and the use of natural light.
Gorgeous!!!!!! Definitely magazine worthy.
Beautiful house!!! I am off to read her blog!
I didn’t know I could like traditional! This is very nice. It still has a casual “tone” to it. I really like it. So much that it makes me re-think my decor which is overboard beachy casual. Great post!
Wonderful……I have not been by her blog…..can’t wait to see more !!! Thanks for sharing Tee 🙂
Have a nice week-end Rhoda, hubby has been away on business, home tonight, it’s our Anniversary 🙂
All the best,
Kathy 🙂

I’m so glad you featured her!!!!
Hugs/love/blessings,
