Salutations Cottage Fix friends and fine people of the world wide web. Gray is all the buzz this year, that’s for sure. For more reasons than just being one of the hottest color trends of the year so I hear (haven’t read the book or seen the movie still, but I’m planning on it … ahem). Anyways, back to the color of the year, that tid bit is according to my mom who read that one of this year’s winner […]

Salutations! We’re head over heels for spring here at Cottage Fix. As our garden begins to come back to life I can’t help but bring in a few bouquets to add a touch of cottage romance. Our azaleas are in full bloom and I’m enjoying this week of beautiful spring weather, dining with the flowers, and just being outside with the grass and the birds. This past weekend, honey and I joined a few friends and we all road our bikes […]

What’s in a cottage garden? They come in all shapes and all sizes, but share one common thread… loads of that sweet cottage charm. We have beautiful breezy sun filled skies here on the East Coast, and one of my favorite activities when the weather cooperates is long leisurely bike rides through the neighborhood. I like to check out what’s blooming around town and see what’s new. It’s like my Pinterest board of “charming exteriors” come to life. What better […]

Hello guys! I believe I promised an unveiling of our cottage style bathroom remodel that’s been a part of this girls cottage life for a few too many months now. I have to say it’s getting lots of use, we obviously really needed an extra functioning bathroom. But with two teenagers, it’s been hard to get it tidied up long enough to snap a few photos. The cabinet that will be going above the throne is proving to be a […]

Hola Cottage Fix friends! I’m blogging in today with the sticky sweet smell of wisteria filling the air indoors and out in the back garden too. Something about the potent smell of wisteria calls for the hope of good days ahead, don’t ya think. Days spent lounging by the sea, hiking through the cool morning air, and dining under the stars. After dinner bike rides with the wind breezing by and no route in mind. Days that come and go […]

Hello there. Ahem…I recently bought myself a little present — tisk tisk. While it may be a weird time of year to add a chunky cable knit throw (that I don’t really need) to the cottage decor, I ordered this from Pottery Barn’s end of season sale. A Pottery Barn sale equals little to no will power on my part. I check from time to time to see if there’s anything on the sale page I just can’t live without, and […]

Salutations Cottage Fix friends! Last week was the kiddos spring break and honey took a couple of days R and R too. Despite the start of our holiday beginning with the removal of one teenage boy’s wisdom teeth, it was a relaxing, easy going week for us all. He only had one really bad day and then it was a week of sleeping in, computer games, and milkshakes. A few days of downtime is just what he needed!The weather turned […]

Salutations! We’re still on break from the bathroom remodel and I’m still really enjoying that at the moment. The bad thing about a break is that it’s hard to get going again, if you know what I mean. It’s like when I come in for a drink while working in the garden on a hot summer day and then forget to go back out. I sit down with the ipad and a cold lemonade just for a moment and then […]
