Poolside perfection

I've been slightly obsessed with homes, yards and pools since I was a young child.  I don't have a Shelley's glorious yard but I do dream of owning a pool someday! The design would also have classic roots with glamorous details. Shelley Johnstone Paschke's yard is just that and more. How wonderful would it be to step outside your home in the warmer months and feel as if you are on vacation? Shelly's pink towels were inspired by her stays at La Fontelina hotel in Capri.

Shelley sketched out the pool house design for the architect. 

Her home is a Dutch Colonial Revival with cedar-shake shingles.
