Swoon.

Seaside Cottage Bedroom DIY Closets

via

Well, if this isn't the cutest little seaside cottage bedroom! I never even thought of adding closet space this way in my own cottage that is very short on hanging space for clothing. A window like this one over the bed is on my want list as well. I could have one so easily since my bed is on a north wall with no openings. I would schedule a carpenter today if only I could snap my fingers and make it disappear in the by October since my bedroom is on the chilly side in the winter already. This would be perfect in the summer though since I am a fresh air freak.

Good Dog.

I like it all, especially the respectful dog. This interior is stunning in every way and I love every inch of it! Homeschooling a dog has its rewards, doesn't it?

It is Spring Again

R. M. Rilke

It's pretty chilly at my house but the grass is green and the sky is blue, so I can't complain. My daffodils have popped too.

Imaginary Cottage Life Artwork

I love this imaginary cottage interior drawn by Yelena Bryksenkova. I wouldn't mind having a tiny elephant on my bed or in my kitchen having breakfast. Have a great weekend. xo

Cow Kisses

If this doesn't make you smile, nothing will. The animal world never ceases to amaze me. These cows seem to really love that dog and he adores their kisses. So sweet!

Beautiful Embroidery

Flower Detail: Top Panel of Jane Nicholas Mirror stitched by Lorna Loveland.

Middle Panel

I wish I could see the entire finished mirror surround, don't you? Oh, the power of a woman with a needle!

UPDATE: I found the entire mirror!!!

It's beautiful, isn't it? via

The Destroyers

Ha. I'm so glad Webster can't jump on the furniture any more. This is my worst nightmare and I'm sure they drink from the toilet too. (Smile) Dogs really know how to get comfortable, don't they?

Wonderful One-Piece Back Splash Behind Stove

I love this area behind the range because there are no grout lines for easy cleaning and it's beautiful too.

Rainbow at My Cottage Today

It was really a double but you can hardly see the top one.

What a Garden!

via

Do I see train tracks between this farm garden and the beautiful old house? Farming is such a noble profession and I think farmers are born, not made. The love of the land and working the soil has to be in your blood or else it's just back-breaking work.

White Kitchen with Black Accents

via

The overhead fixture is too fancy for me but otherwise I like this kitchen a lot. Love the Fornasetti images on the shelf.

Abandoned House

Photos like this break my heart. There's no one to tell this old home's story. I like to think it could still be saved. 

Nice Laundry Room

Great laundry room. I wouldn't mind being greeted by these two when coming in from the outside. 

Follow The Boxwood Home

via

Isn't this a lovely approach to greet these lucky homeowners? My back ouches me at the very thought of trimming these mounds twice a year though. I have a lot of winter kill on my three large English boxwood this year for the first time ever but I'm determined to baby them back to health. The American varieties fared much better. Last week, I clipped away at the worst one hoping to stimulate some new spring growth. Fingers crossed. Have a great Sunday. xo

The gang's all here for picture day and lookin' good.

The Path by Kirsten Karius

I love this photograph of a path winding around giant tree trunks. What a wonderful place to get lost.

Wonderful Cork-board Wall

Imagine having a bulletin board (inspo board) this large. Heavenly! Love it.
