Romantic....Rustic.....Cabin.....Cottage.....Whatever it is, this is the earliest I have EVER started decorating for Christmas. I never start until the first week of December but since I seem to be getting slower and slower at what I'm doing.....better start now!
Here are a few pictures.......we have much "loose ends" to do before Christmas. So many have been asking how is everything coming along?.........(response.......S*L*O*W) Basically, we moved in and collapsed...
This picture is the front room or as I call it "The Keeping Room". I don't know what that word means but I like the saying. I'm not sure what the room is keeping except all of my JUNKING stuff~~~
I have been looking for a unique grate/andirons but haven't found what we want yet. I purchased the cowhide at "Over the Moon Vintage Mkt" from Small Town Junk. I have been looking for different pieces of furniture to create a new look....I bought the modern button wing back recently to the right of the pic. I like!
Blessings to each and everyone of you and your families!~~~~~Roxie
Hi Roxie, I love that you are mixing feminine with masculine. It has a real woodman meets lady and they lived happily ever after, feel:)
ReplyDeleteLove what you're doing.

Roxie, I love it all. I especially love the white gate in front of the fireplace. I wish I had a fireplace and a mantle to decorate.
ReplyDeleteDearest Roxie - you might think it is coming slow but I think you have very quickly turned this cottage into a dream home. I so love your living room...as for your junking in the "keeping room" just send some my way because I think it is beautiful. Hope you have a blessed start to the Christmas season. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteRoxie, I love your keeping room! It has rustic charm which I adore. The gate as a fireplace screen is so darn creative. Love your table décor and both chairs! I hear ya about being slower. I usually am done in just a few days. Not happening this year. lol!

You all have worked so hard on your cottage, that I'm not surprised you're exhausted! But your keeping room looks so charming. Love what you've done so far.
