Illinois Street, Indianapolis, Indiana




Hello! For Memorial Day weekend, this post could come from none other than Indianapolis, Indiana, home of The Greatest Spectacle in Racing.  I found a house that's all ready for race day and a little traditional style.






Let's just add a little race day bunting before we slip inside...







I hope the previous owners left the black trim paint handy.


I think this room is from Country Living- if anyone knows, please share. I like this traditional style that reads modern country.  

Beautiful chandelier.  Nice that it stayed with the house. 


This room is from Country Living, and again is a nice blend of traditional and country. 

The kitchen has new butcher block counters.

Let's just give it a little personality.


This pretty kitchen was shown on Hooked on Houses. This is Ainhoa's kitchen, from one of Julia's neat posts on readers' kitchens.   That sweet pine table and chairs would look perfect in our breakfast area. The beadboard backsplash is another great feature to copy.

This bathroom is a nice, neutral blank slate:


It already has the tile wainscoting that seems to be popular now.  I would keep it neutral, and just add some traditional country style with art and accessories, like this herbier:

Upstairs is this large bedroom with eaves.


I can see this sweet design by Alix Bragg Interior Design in that space. (If you like this room, you'll enjoy this portfolio.) I can see this room appealing to a few of my female family members, too- J, K, and C, I'm looking at you. 

There. Now this house is all set for an Indy 500 party or Memorial Day barbecue.  Hope you enjoy your weekend as well!
