Last week I wrote a post on how I have finally found the style I want when I move into my new very small apartment. It's English cottage style decor. If you missed that post you can see it here. I love the combination of antiques with a comfortable laid back feel. So I have spent my spare moments the last couple of weeks looking for more inspiration. I love the slipcovered sofa and chairs. I think they give the room a very relaxed feel. In fact, I love the whole room.I need a similar sofa in a love seat size.
Laura, I love that room also. I think the windows are my favorite part. Those frames on the pictures are very nice too. I hope when you get in your new place it all works for you and you feel good there. Our homes should always be a retreat. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
you've found some great pics of that style. I think you're going to enjoy putting your new home together with that look. It will lend itself well to the cooler weather too.
That is a good solid choice for decor that never really goes out of style, Laura. It can be updated easily but having antiques with cottage elements is a favourite of mine.
Oh Laura, what charming photographs! Each one is truly beautiful! I could relax and enjoy life in any of those fabulous rooms! Love that you have chosen Cottage Style!!
I didn't realize you had a new place! Whoo Hooo---look what happens when one is MIA for a while. I love all these images and think any of them would be perfect. Thanks for the comment on my blog- I don't have a direct email for you so I am thanking you here. xo Diana
I'm all for comfort and cosy looks, it's beautiful Laura....and with the cooler weather coming up it's going to be even nicer for you to have something cosy like that...build it one piece at a time!

It's lovely...reminds me of what the older English books would call a sitting room. I love old novels and i can just see tea being brought in to a room like this while you are entertaining a friend. Of course you are not doing that in sweatpants, either. You have a lovely FROCK on :)

It's very nice Laura and a look that I could definitely go for. I like how I can imagine actually using everything I have rather than needing to get rid of everything and re-shopping.
