Besides being incredibly talented and beautiful, not to mention being a great mom, having a hot boyfriend, and being that all American girl, Reese Witherspoon has a gorgeous perfectly decorated home!
Of course!
Why wouldn't she?
I think I would like to move in, kick her out, and live with Jake.
That totally doesn't look like her style. Strange! Not that I know her personally, but I'd imagine her in a very pure and romantic space. Oh - I just read a previous post about it being the past residence decor. Well that makes sense!! It feels a little to Kate Hudson and not so much Reece Witherspoon. But, I love it anyway!!
Wow- what a gorgeous house! I was jealous of her before, but now?! I don't think I could properly express the envy. I just love her though so it's hard to try and hate her! :)

Hello! My name is Melaine and I am a busy mother of 2 beautiful children, Savannah and Cody. I have been married to my high school sweetheart, Chris, for 11 years now. We live on gorgeous Crystal Lake in Woodinville with our yellow lab, Hunter. In my spare time, that is, when I am not shopping, I love to paint and decorate. I have done quite a few interiors now and am always up for a new challenge! Children's rooms are my specialty, I just love getting my hands on them, the possibilities are endless! When I am not working, I love hanging out with my husband and kids, camping, traveling, or just staying at home for movie night.

That's not her decor, it's the decor of the previous owner Kathryn Ireland.
But I do agree it is amazing!
Ooh, that is lovely...love the homely feel of it and also the colour.
That totally doesn't look like her style. Strange! Not that I know her personally, but I'd imagine her in a very pure and romantic space. Oh - I just read a previous post about it being the past residence decor. Well that makes sense!! It feels a little to Kate Hudson and not so much Reece Witherspoon. But, I love it anyway!!
Regardless of whose it is.....I love how it looks lived in. Like someone actually lives there!
I agree. I don't care whose decor it is. It's great. It does look like it's really lived in, which I think is very refreshing!
*Tricia
Wow- what a gorgeous house! I was jealous of her before, but now?! I don't think I could properly express the envy. I just love her though so it's hard to try and hate her! :)
She is one of my favorites...always imagine she would be a great friend!
Love her home and how comfy it feels...dreaming of a big tree in my back yard like that one!
Surely she has a housekeeper!
Surely!
Gorgeous!
Lou Cinda :)
No matter whose decor it is it is very fun!
It's quite a beauty!!
Awww, I do love that girl. And we're the same age so that somehow makes me still feel young :-).
Love it all!! The kitchen is wonderful:)
I saw that totally cute face on a friends blog list, had to come have a peek!
Great post, I really didn't think that was her style, surprise!
ps hey give it a go, what have you got to lose .....
She is my hubby's celeb crush, so her home might as well by my celeb home crush. :) Love those pops of color!
i'd like to move it with you :O)
and it seems so 'real' just like she is... beautiful & unique.
Everything is perfect-even the perfectly twisted tree.
