I still can’t believe I bought this hutch for forty dollars. There’s something special about dove grey and copper bathed in sunlight during golden hour. Even though I’ve been staring at it for ten years, this room still makes me smile.

For this room I channeled Nancy Meyer’s. It’s a little bit “Something’s Gotta Give” and a dash of “The Holiday.” When I look at our home as a whole I see glimmers of her style throughout. I’ve been waiting to redesign our living room since April and she’s finally perfect. This is the culmination of ten years of hard work. Years of designing, painting, repainting, saving, and becoming have blossomed into our beautiful home and I couldn’t be more proud. Coming home to a beautiful environment is not what I love most about my life, but it’s high on the list.

I spy with my little eye, a chinoiserie ginger jar collection. I’d like to say I’m done searching for them since the shelf is full but that hasn’t stopped me before.

I’ve been waiting years to purchase a new sofa and now that we have the living room feels right. FINALLY. These chairs are gorgeous and just right for this room.

I’ve been dragging my feet finishing the hallway. I don’t know if it’s because it’s such a narrow space or that no one really sees it but us. All that’s left to do is place the artwork in the frames but I’ll leave that as a surprise for now. My craft nook is finally finished as well. It’s a pretty sight to wake up to every morning.

I worked on a little project this weekend. The Gish Cottage is creeping into the spring season a bit brighter this year. Want to brighten up a room but still keep it cozy? Add a warm yellow to your color palette 🤌🏻

When it comes to our living room I’ve had mixed feelings. There are corners I love but it feels disconnected somehow. Living rooms are difficult, it’s one of the most lived in rooms of our home so it needs to be comfortable. Balancing comfort and beauty is a fine skill. I’m on a journey with our living room and this is my first step. I fell in love with this chair over a year ago and it seems to be the perfect piece to build a room around. We have to finish our homes one step at a time. A collected home takes time and the best homes are a reflection of the people within them.

Our lovely guest bedroom bathed in morning sunlight. One of my favorite rooms to design and spend time in. It’s a special nest for loved ones- a cozy retreat. #englishcottage #cottage #antiquefurniture #guestbedroom #bryanscozycorner

February is for tea parties and cookie making. When I was a little girl my mom threw me a tea party for my birthday with this exact teapot and cups. She gave them to me a few years ago and I’ve cherished them ever since. Today, they make an appearance.

Even with all of the snow outside, I feel a bit of warmth coming through the windows today.

A few spring touches have made their way into our home. I actually love snow and am not trying to rush winter along. The house just looked so bare without all of the Christmas decor. I don’t think I’ll do much more for spring besides adding some fresh flowers.
