The white painted staircase, the cow painting,
the bucket of garden flowers and of course, a Mora clock.
*********
This photo was taken by Heather Bullard, and I have always loved it.
But I recall reading something more about this house...
who lives here, or maybe it was about who painted the cow...
if you know anything I would be glad if you could share.

Ever since I saw Brooke Giannetti's mora clock
I wanted one. Such a pretty graceful shape!
These two photos are similar in that they have
white painted stairs and vintage furnishings
in addition to the clocks. Brookes version is creamier,
the first version is pure white~both stunning.
Now this miniature mora clock is for sale in my online
shop at www.shopmaisondecor.com
I have one in my living room finally and love the look.
Are you a Mora clock fan?
Oh my--I love Mora clocks--you lucky dog!
ReplyDeleteI love them..although I did not know the actual name for them. For some reason they always make me think of Alice In Wonderland and have a bit of sweet magic attached to them. So, did you order one? xo Diana
ReplyDeleteI am a hopeless Scandinavian tall case clock fan. I've read books and put my nose against magazine articles hoping to reproduce one. Sadly they are so finely crafted in a difficult manner (circles & curves) I can't touch them. (I don't call them Mora clocks because I read many clocks of this style come from Mora in Sweden but not all.)
ReplyDeleteYou can take any room and place one of these in and BLAMMO you've got style and vertical void filled.
Those are so pretty Amy. I remember you showing that photo before of the entry with the big clock but you were talking about another subject. The lines on these are so graceful!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend!

p/s Debra at Common Ground is hosting a giveaway for me tomorrow...so you might want to enter!
I love Mora Clocks.. In fact I seem to love all clocks... I just bought another one Wednesday... trying so hard to find a spot for it!!
ReplyDeleteYou're getting a Mora Clock!!!?? They're beautiful! Can't wait to see what you do with it...
ReplyDeleteCindy
Lucky you....that Mora clock will be a beautiful addition to your already beautiful home. Can't wait to see it......have a great weekend, Amy!
ReplyDeleteI am so jealous
ReplyDeleteLucky girl can't wait to see where you put it
have a great weekend
xo
Pam
Those clocks are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteHi Amy,
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you found one that you like. When I see these clocks I always think of Scandanavian style decor. I'm sure it will look perfect in your home.
hugs
Sissie
Mmmm. Love those clocks. It's on my must-have-some-day list. Congrats on your aquisition!
ReplyDeleteYou mean you're getting the exact clock in that photo? Boy are you lucky! I have your answer as to whose house that is. That is Leah Anderson's home. She is the artist that paints those cow pics. Her home was featured in Flea Market Magazine and I have that issue. That is why I instantly knew who it was. I ADORE her house. It's all white and beachy and farmhousey at the same time. It's full of eye candy but not over the top. If you haven't seen it, you would love it. I think if you google her name you can find the article. LOVE - LOVE - LOVE that clock and I'm JEALOUS! Ha! Can't wait to see it in your home.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE those clocks! Those two images are beautiful too.
ReplyDeletethanks for letting me know about the word confirmation on my blog, I am going to change it so its not so hard to leave me a comment! ;)
Have a wonderful weekend Amy!
xoxo Rachel
Oh Amy...that clock will look absolutely wonderful in your home!
ReplyDeleteI would never be able to afford one, but did find a similar one recently, and love it. I don't know where to put it, though. My hubby suggested the stairway...hey, he's smarter than I thought LOLOLOL!!
I'm anxious to see where you place yours.
xxoo
I think they are so pretty but do not have one....yet! Can't wait to see your new treasure :o)
ReplyDelete~Des
the clock is pretty, but i want the cow painting! did you happen to find out who it is by?
ReplyDeleteAmy, I also love Mora Clocks. One Kings lane (see my sidebar) has some from Evergreen on sale now. Regular $799 for $299. I am so tempted! Hugs, Sherry
ReplyDeleteAll Mora clock fans: Hurry! One Kings Lane is offering three today. The prices are excellent but the extra shipping charge is steep. After much research on Mora clocks, I strongly recommend Lone Ranger Antiques. Besides having the largest selection of clocks and Scandinavian antiques, Jeffrey is incredibly nice and helpful and his prices are excellent. Google Lone Ranger Antiques and check out his appearance on Martha Stewart's show.
ReplyDeleteHi Amy,
ReplyDeleteI love mora clocks. I would love to own a real one someday. I do have the same one pictured in the photo of Leah Andersons's house. She also has a beautiful mirror in her bathroom that I love. If you go to her blog or website she has the most wonderful clothing as well that she designs. Leah is a very talented girl. Can't wait to see where you put your clock. I have mine in the kitchen nook area.

ReplyDeleteI think it will look terrific and I can't wait to see where you put it. I think my mother has one...now I'll have to check next time I am there!
ReplyDeleteStacy
I think Mora clocks have such a romantic feel to them..Congrats on finding the clock of your dreams..
ReplyDeleteHey! I don't have one of those spiffy swedish looking thingies, but you've just made me remember a wooden hanging clock i have stashed in my basement! When I come back to Ma. I am going to unwrap it and maybe paint it, and then make you look at it and tell me how great I am!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you have any more room in your house for more stuff!!! You go girl!
Hey Amy,
ReplyDeleteI just recently discovered these gorgeous clocks...I'm in love!

I love Mora clocks and have it on my wish list!!! I have been fascinated with these clocks for years and now they are all the rage!
ReplyDeleteoh heavens, yes!!! my parents have one but we don't. what a find that would be someday!
ReplyDeletemichele
Havent given much thought to whether i like these clocks and had no idea what they were called til i read ur post...They are very femine, i think, and one would look awesome in ur home..Im gonna let u keep the clock though, if i can have that beautiful cane bench on the magazine cover, lol............Bonnie
ReplyDeleteI love that style of clock and haven't ever heard the term "Mora." I am always learning something from you. Can't wait to see the one you are getting. I think I want a cow painting like the one in your first photo... there is something about cows (and pigs) I find irresistable.
ReplyDeleteLori
Love that first picture Amy,so light and bright,the table and flowers look so pretty,can not wait to see where you put your mora clock.
ReplyDeletexxx
Yes, I just LOVE Mora clocks!
ReplyDeleteI've been reading your blog for awhile now and I love your taste and home. I've been with Betsy since the beginning too and think of y'all as friends, even though I've never met you. Kindred spirits or something like that??
But anyway, the other day I posted a blog about loving Mora clocks and re-creating one. I'm a brand new blogger and just loving it but if you're interested the link is here.
