Trust designer Cindy Hattersely to find such cute rooms.  Are you on Instagram?  I am not, so if Cindy had not posted, I would not have seen this.

 

 

It's from an account called "littlesanctuaryonadriana".   The owner has endearingly confessed she is tackling her 90's house by bringing in a little vintage, one at a time.

 

It's just a small view of it, but conveys a lot.  The way this darling bed is layered, is so cozy and autumnal!   The whole thing reminds me of warm argyle socks, layered against chilly weather.   Hits all my favorites--  sweet landscape painting, soft ecru walls, chunky knit blankets and that argyle-type pillow is just the best!

Cindy tantalized us with two more pictures from the same house.  Whoever does "littlesanctuary" has a nice eye for traditional warmth.

The kitchen cabinets and exhaust hood are everything. GORGeous for sure. The vanilla color, so warm and inviting. Thanks for the great post.

That tray in the second picture says it all.  The kitchen with the lush white counter tops is inspiring and creative.  Thanks, @Oznell

Definitely in the Traditional category. It's not horrible and I'd stay in a place like this for a B&B. It looks calm & comfortable, even if not my exact taste. I LOVE the floors in the kitchen!!

Oh, I could curl up  in that bed with some books. Then I'd head over to the kitchen for a warm drink.

Beautiful rooms, esp. the kitchen.  However, the first two rooms look a little cramped.  The bedroom looks small, so what are you going to do with 7 pillows when you go to bed (or maybe 5).  Bedside lamp won't throw enough light to read, but looks good on the table books.  I just would not want to fool around with that many pillows.  The other room is quite nice too but looks a little cramped.  Three pillows on the sofa,  no room for your bottom to sit.  Flowers are a few inches too tall.  I don't mean to be Debbie Downer, the colors are lovely, just charming, but I don't see the practicality of it.

You're not a downer, @Another new name Sue --   opinions welcome!

 

I actually agree with you about a proliferation of pillows.  On my bed, I only like one sleeping pillow per person, and one sham pillow per person.  

 

But, with these rooms, even though they are a bit more "populated" than I prefer, I just love the overall cozy, friendly feeling they manage to convey.

This is so far removed from my personal style but the rooms do appear warm and inviting!  The only thing I didn't care for was her mix of prints in the living room.  I agree with the poster who said the nightstand lamp in the bedroom was not really big enought and probably wouldn't have enough light to read in bed.  I loved your Argyle description of the bedroom.
