• ~A Wee Bit of Fabric~

  I am not really sure that you can put a specific design name to The Painted Nest. Our cottage doesn’t fall into one style category, for it reflects not only our farm life…but our outside interests. (click pics to enlarge~if you dare!) Items we have gathered on our travels here and abroad…fill our home…as well as wondrous treasures passed from generation to generation. And there are handmade treasures that tell secret stories. Did you like this? Share it:Tweet

The Muse gathered her coinage… And smartly thus… Bought a wondrous bounty… As to make pirates lust…. A silver teapot battered about… A bird whose wing was weak… Not secure or truly stout… Paper roses wrinkled and worn… Their edges thread tattered and torn… Potpourri whose scent had gone… Yes, the [...]

• ~A Bit of Home~

  The little parlor in The Painted Nest, is waiting… she lingers between fall and winter. Thanksgiving will find her adorned in deep rust reds. Her memory table drawer will be redone… with new treasures of family heritage. In this old room, new memories will be made. New pillows will adorn her feather sofa. Little hearts filled with expectation will giggle and shout. I love the word “home”, don’t you? Did you like this? Share it:Tweet

  There once was a sofa…a sweetheart of a gal, who loved denim. Her favorite skirt was denim too…with a bit of tassel and fluff. Can you catch a peek? (Plain to see she is a cottage farm gal, what high society folk call~unpretentious. Did you like this? Share it:Tweet
