What is your favorite area in your home and why?
Hi all! My name’s Danielle Selby and I’m so excited to be taking part in this series and showing you the favorite areas in my home!!
LIVING ROOM
The living room is our place to hang out with friends and family. This is the part of our house that gets the most sunlight, and it has a pretty view into the backyard that’s backed up to the woods. When I’m here, I feel like I’m in a calm oasis looking out into my mini jungle. I’ve always had a love affair with the ocean (I blame that on my partial Filipino heritage), but my roots are also in Texas, so this room does a pretty solid job of fusing parts of the two.
MASTER BEDROOM
My husband is pretty awesome and lets me go crazy with ideas around our home. Our master was definitely filled with the love of art when he helped move the king size bed back and forth for a few days while I painted this mural. She ended up looking a little wistful, but serene. I thought she might actually creep me out for the first few nights after I finished her, but I’ve only grown to love her more and more! I love this room because we’ve NEVER had a huge bed until now (my husband is a football-build, 6’2″ guy), so comfort is endless here for us. This is also our place to watch our favorite shows on the iPad, read, and hang out with our Boston Terrier in the soft pillows. We’re one tiny and happy family in this room.
OFFICE
I had the most trouble getting the office to fit my needs and not be a total pile of unorganized papers, paintbrushes, canvases, and paint tubes, and it took me over a year to get it to the point that my husband and I both adore it. The office is the place that allows me to easily do what I love, and it’s the place that has expanded my creativity and learning. I love this room because it’s uncluttered and full of light, (two things that I need to dive into my work}. My dog adores it too…you can usually spot her snoring on the sheepskin under the desk or soaking up the sunshine near the window.
