Good morning Cottage Fix crew! We’re talking cloudy, dreamy, seriously puffy, just lay back and melt the day away bedding here at Cottage Fix today. The kind of bedding that beckons for a nap on a Tuesday afternoon. The kind of bedding that makes me wonder how bad it would really be for me to pick a fight with Honey just so I can sleep on a cloud in the guest room. Pretty bad… I know — I’m only joking […]

Salutations! I’m blogging in today under sunny skies and crisp fall air. After two full days of showers and steady rain, the change is so welcome. This was my grandma’s dresser that she used in her sewing room to store fabrics and threads, buttons and such. I spent many hours plopped down on her sewing room floor watching her sew and flipping through her encyclopedia Britannica collection. Do you remember those? Now I wish I would’ve payed closer attention to […]

Good morning Cottage Fix friends! I’m blogging in today under sunny autumn skies, although the temperature dipped down into the low thirties last night. It’s unseasonably cool here for this time of year. Let’s just say I found myself sitting on one of the warm radiators this morning listening to them creak and crack back to life after a long summer’s break. I love radiator heat, it’s so cozy.We started our first fire of the season last night, complete with […]

Hola Cottage Fix friends! I’m blogging in today with a dollar store score that I’m super excited about. All of these pretty dishes you see here on my trunk are vintage finds and also from my grandmothers cupboard except for one. Can you guess? It’s the charming pink goblets, I just love pink glass. And pink glass from the dollar store, are you kidding! I’ll be going back for two more in case any happen to break. I wish you could […]

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 […]

Happy Friday guys! I’m blogging in today with a sweet little French inspired vintage mirror. I’m not entirely sure of it’s history, but to me it looks a little French/Paris apartment like. Of course a super chic mirror must feel right at home in this shabby filled cottage with a lady who spends her mornings blogging in pajamas. That’s chic, right? It’s certainly a mixed bag around here. While cottage and everything cottage will always be my first and number […]

I’m afraid I might start sounding like a broken record, but here it goes. I have been recovering from the flu this week, again! The minute I started to get sick, I just couldn’t believe it. I swear I was only completely well from the first bout for roughly one full day before this second round of illness settled in. As much as I was looking forward to winter this year, I’m done. I couldn’t be more over it. Anyways, […]

Frosted window panes, candles gleaming inside Painted candy canes on the tree Santa’s on his way, he’s filled his sleigh with things Things for you and for me It’s that time of year when the world falls in love Every song you hear seems to say “Merry Christmas” “May your New Year dreams come true” And this song of mine in three-quarter time Wishes you and yours the same thing, too “The Christmas Waltz” was written by Sammy Cahn […]
