Having the corn crib to decorate in is wonderful. Every season we decorate for is new and exciting for each one. As much as I love the shabby chic look I also love reds, golds and greens too. I love change so much that I redecorate constantly. Having my own cottage/studio gives me the opportunity to do just that.
My friend Tracy and I decorated the front room of the studio in whites with a little pastel mixed in here and there.
We also mixed in some greens and browns in the photo below. The steps were a wonderful find and perfect to set up displays on. It is so much fun to use architectural cast offs and give them a new life.
Outside in the courtyard we brought out all the pinks. They looked so great with all the flowers and herbs as a backdrop.
We are going to have our second weekend fall sale coming up on Aug.22 and 23. I have been busy painting away and rearanging for customers to come and shop. I love to revamp and have them return and be surprised at the difference.
With the end of summer approaching and the end of my sales for the summer I am looking forward to fall house cleaning and preparing my gardens for the winter. I am also very excited to say that very soon I will be offering prints of my paintings! I will keep you informed on that when I have more to tell.
Thanks for visiting and check back as I will have more photos of this next weekends sale!
Blessings to you and yours! ~ Nichole
What a lovely cottage you have. So bright and cheery. I use my cottage's back room as a studio so it's not decorated yet. I may get busy one day soon and see what I can do back there. Love your garden, too
