The sitting space of the Tiny Cottage with its peaked ceiling, chandelier, white planked partitions and charming blue fire is so inviting, it’ll be superb to take pleasure in it in each season. The sunshine is great in right here and I really like the view of the timber exterior– and within the winter when it snows (which is often just for per week or so) the view by way of these home windows will likely be equally as unbelievable! Quickly there will likely be vegetation and furnishings exterior, too.
One other enjoyable characteristic on this sitting room is that this in-built cupboard, designed by my mother and father particularly as a complement to the kitchen for storage, a espresso station for his or her espresso machine and a spot for his or her toaster oven. It has a tiled top. And their Frame TV goes on the wall above it. Small house PERFECTION!
A captivating kitchenette is tucked away and such a pleasant shock to stroll into it! It’s gentle and shiny with home windows overlooking the Tiny Backyard and window packing containers. I really like the entire cottage-y components my mother selected — from the vintage-inspired home equipment, to the tile to the blue cupboards to the copper {hardware} to the enjoyable show cabinets, deep windowsills and plant nooks! I can’t wait to see how she decorates in right here.

Enjoyable truth, this subway tile is definitely the identical tile we had in our previous grey and white kitchen! We had some left over they usually purchased extra to complete it off. (Ours was known as Arctic White #0190 however there’s the same coloration here)
The medicine cabinet has lights and mirrors in and out, plus a flowery defogging characteristic! The ceiling has an exhaust fan with a heat light so it’ll be hotter in right here within the chilly months.
She swapped out the vainness knobs for these white ceramic knobs, it’s tremendous cute! (The opposite pictures on this publish have been taken earlier than the knob change!)
The mattress nook was a bit difficult to design inside the out there house, however with cautious planning by my mother and father, they’ve a snug spot for sleeping and free standing cupboards that will likely be added. SO CUTE!
