Living inspiration 8.11.

I love EVERYTHING about India's tropical living room.  It has an undecorated feel to it with objects scattered and somewhat out of place.  I'm a major fan of the sailboat model in front of the bookcase.  Something tells me I could totally get away with something like that in our place:)

Elements that make up this lived in living room look:
Vintage pink striped linen slipcover
Collection of wooden objects
Sailboat model
Above the threashold storage for hats
Paper covered books (is this practical?  It sure looks great...)
Birdcage
Photos
Minimal window treatment
White coffee table
