~english farmhouse~

Good morning!

.....rain.

wet.

rain.

well if this doesn't get my mind straight

for school starting tomorrow ~

nothing will!!

I came across this charming English farmhouse,

too darling not to share!

I guess it actually started as 2 little cottages

and they converted it to one.

~*~

How about cozying up to a nice fire

this morning for a little cup of tea

and a browse through a favorite magazine?

ya' know, I think the home we're in

now is the 1st one we've owned without

*gasp* a fireplace.....

I've always wanted to add one....

 my good friend actually just put one in *exactly* like

the one above & they love it.

this home is just so charming & cozy....

love those floors.....

what fabulous patina, huh?

ok....now my favorite detail in the kitchen....

a sofa.....right there to lounge on while gathering

in the kitchen....how wonderful!

I've always loved the idea of comfy chairs

near the kitchen for just that sort of thing,

but this is just so neat.

I am really loving the farmhouse doors

throughout the home~

Their bedroom is nice and neutral....

~with a simple headboard...someone could

easily duplicate!!

{as promised...headboard slipcover tutorial up next!}

more reinforcement of what I need to do in our bathrooms....yep....pronto....

so darling, no?

and the thing about putting sinks into

various pieces of furniture....

it's just not that hard!

so why do I stall?

hmmmmmmm..........

 I wonder if that's an original

pump & well?  probably huh?

looks like the set of a Jane Austen movie....

I'm moving in......

and then I'll start wearing those sweet

cotton dresses like Elizabeth does....

with little boots....

Enjoy your week!

xo,

Shellagh
