Bright and beautiful rooms to lighten up a gloomy day

I tried to post this yesterday, but for some reason or another I wasn't able to upload images!

I don't know about you guys, but over here in the states the east coast is getting pretty soggy. So I spent most of my morning seeking out sunny rooms while my shoes dry on the radiator.

I'm liking vertical shelves more and more.

I also like the look of rustic wood furniture contrasting with porcelin in the bathroom.
