It needs a sign on the front door "No Boys Allowed"

Too much white. Pretty but boring.

I'm not in love with the exterior. The interior is very pretty and "cottagy" but just not something I want for me, personally.

@stevieb Love all the shades of glasses in the cabinet. So pretty.

@stevieb I believe I see a bit of "cottage core," Rachel Ashwell's shabby chic, a soupçon of farmhouse, and it's all good.

In my home, I must reconcile the more cottage core side of me with a lifetime's love of mid-century. It's all quite incoherent.

I do love these Leslie Saeta (I visit her 100 year old home website) cottage vignettes, but if I lived there, I'd def. need to create at least one mid-century modern room.

After the NYTimes and WaPo send me nearly over the edge every day, my recovery often consists of visiting design/decor websites. And of course, QVC forum, which I must confess does set me on edge occasionally as well.

Wishing you the best day possible and please, keep posting here!

Very pretty! LOVE all of the window panes and slip covered furniture as well as the style of the house!!!

@laluzdelmundo What a nice post. Thank you. I have to admit I only have one piece of mid-century furniture, so we'll have to sort of part ways on that one, but I do love my parent's old coffee table from their first house. Its been painted so many times but is a perfect occasional table and has been used in many rooms. Anyway, I'm glad you enjoy the posts and while I don't post as often as I once did, as interest in the home forum seems to rotate and right now there seems to be less interest in home decor, I do try to post from time to time. I do understand and agree, we do, for sure, need a pleasant respite after a hefty dose of the real world!

It is lovely...a bit too girly for all the boys in my family but it can be a getaway for my DD and I..the only girls in the family.

That's more than a cottage to me but I sure do like it.

The glasses in the cabinet are the only real colors in the pictures...overall it seems bland.
