About This Space

The porch of my Victorian cottage was enclosed back in the 20s. I painted it white with a blue ceiling, refinished the hardwood floors, added a custom built daybed and lots of blue and white. The shelving holds my ironstone and aqua mason jars and bottles, and seagrass baskets are used for storage. A Dash and Albert outdoor rug withstands heavy traffic. The Starfish pillow is from local artist Willywaw. Vintage french grain sacks are used as pillow cases. Since the porch is south facing it gets great sun and warms up enough in winter so we can use it year round!

This is just wonderful I love it. It is everything I could wish for. All the elements I love. My, my, my!!!!! I love in an old house like this.Ilive inone BUT I don't have the wonderful porch like this. But the decorating style is some what like mine. Yours is much better. Just wondering though, what happened to the radiator? I have them all over the place and I am always looking for creative ways to incorporate them into the decor. Mine are my heating source. And I love it. When you decide to hold the open house, let me know.lol Great job.
