text-align: left;">Model Stella Tennant is the granddaughter of the Dowager Duchess of Devonshire and it looks like she learned a lot from her chic grandmother.  Stella and her husband live in a beautiful home on a farm in Berwickshire, Scotland featuring de Gournay and Cole & Sons wallpaper and even a tepee in the backyard.  Stella has also been known to feed the chickens and also has a pink bathroom just like her grandmother.  I'm wondering if this is a common British habit or just something passed down.  Whatever the case, I am definitely filing it away in my inspiration file.  Enjoy! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
