Larder Lust: Best Butler's Pantry

This photo stopped me in my tracks. It is the best larder I have ever seen. Call it a pantry if you must but larder sounds better for such a magnificent room. via

Beautiful Home

This is the ultimate in curb appeal.
I love the black door and the Versailles planters.
The bay window is perfection.
Love it all.

Antique Stone Potting Sink

This is so perfect.
I always end up using my kitchen sink.
I really do have to set up something outside as there is a lot of repotting to do here at the cottage.
Happy gardening.
