Having a Cottage Style Decorated Home, What do You Have

Having a Cottage Style Decorated Home What do You Have. 

Having those cottage style homes is light, can be airy, fresh, is fun, and is clearly original. Today's style can often incorporate the soft palettes of green, blue, yellow, shades of lilac, and of course pink too. Sometimes you may see things brightened with a brisk color used too. Using pastels for color, some pretty florals, and with some vintage home accessories gives your home that cozy cottage style.

Lace handkerchiefs, lace trims, fragrance candles and some sweet smelling soaps, those comfortable rocking chairs, wallpapers, fabrics are so yummy for the home of cottage styles. Also, sometimes some glassware whether it is clear, or slight coloring that sparkles in the light may be displayed. Picture some of those furniture slip covers that are inviting, some vintage style upholstery, and of course the layers of weathered paint. Gotta love that chippy paint.

This cottage style decorating can surface pretty much anywhere, and with it the attitude is what can also make the house cottage styled. Depending where the house is located sometimes I have seen seaside, shells, and sailboats incorporated with their decor too.

In today's expression of the cottage style is with the thought of flea markets, fresh flowers, vintage patterns, and a little bit of romance with it too. It's a welcoming feeling to all who may visit. 

I love cottage style homes, and hope to have it with our home eventually. It's a working progress. I really do admire the style when I see it in books, magazines, and by many who share their homes with us. Which style of home are you?

Thanks for visiting with PassnItOn, come back often to read, share with us here, and make comments. All are welcome. When in roam visit my LilacsNDreams Artfire Store, and my LilacsNDreams Ecrater Store. Maybe you will find something to fit with your cottage style homes from them.
