  That's a Ficks-Reed drink cart they've got there. Now extinct but I'll bet it would be worth a pretty penny today. My parents had much of their furniture.

This cottage is so appealing to me but then I live in Florida and my house is a Florida Cracker cottage, the interior is all traditional cottage with white wainscoting, baseboards, ceiling and trim, cherry wood floors.  My great room is painted robin's egg blue and my guest bath is painted that exact celery green with peachy-pink, lavender and green accents.  I never see these color combinations in the home decor mags or websites, so thanks for posting this cottage!

I like it-open, airy and sweet!

Very nicely done with an excellent flow.

This designer's "retro" is a little more comfortable to my eye than most.

 

I would have to change the celery to pale robin's egg blue with lt. cream gauze drapes.

Your parents had the coolest furniture, @Judaline !

 

What a darling, "classic Florida" cottage you have, lucky @River Song .

Another house with some color. Yea!

 

The soft green color of the kitchen cabinets is pretty, but I don't like the light fixture. I like the furnishings in the breakfast nook, but I'm not sure the backs of those chairs would be comfortable, and I'm not loving the drapes. The pool area is nice; giving me a retro vibe. I really love the last picture of the rolling cart with the artwork above it! 

I only thing I like in the dining room is the table. I don't care for the elegant corner or the bedroom.
