because of toni...

my sweet toni is looking for kitchen photos to play with
so
I decided to grab one for her out of my cottage file

and
then I grabbed a few more
non-kitchen
photos

only because
I haven't shared that many cottage photos with all of you
so
this is the main floor of our sweet little get-away in the woods
that houses many of our favorite antiques
mixed with flea market finds
chairs from t.j. maxx
a love seat from ikea
pier one import kitchen chairs
a world market end table
and
a kitchen table from target
~~
and
remember it's open for visitors anytime

  1. Ahhh, to be transported to such a tranquil spot! Just perfect for a Saturday morning. I hope you are there continuing the birthday celebration. Lovely, warm and oh, so inviting. Can you all keep it after the full transition to Colorado?

  10. So sunny and bright! Is your summer cottage on the water? I've told my husband a million and one times that I'd love to spend every weekend at a little cabin. Preferably where there isn't a laundy machine. But certainly a dishwasher. Very cute little place, Beth. :)
