There are always rooms and spaces at The Painted Nest which need some sprucing up. Our beloved cottage is in a constant state of “creation”. And I love it, I certainly do For me, color is my companion. So imagine my beloved’s shock, when this color palette was placed before him! Admittedly, this would be a new path for me.

It can be used in all types and styles of spaces…from formal to casual…from modern to victorian and everything in between. Even if a style request is not what you would do for yourself, there are always lessons to learn and challenges to win! And so, we offer yet, another example The modern touch begins when the square plates are used [...]

“Tablescape Tuesday” ~ Picture
White dishware can offer so many options… Each holiday or event can be celebrated with basic pieces of white china or stoneware. For this Christmas table, the colors of silver and blue are combined with white to create this modern setting…the objective…to create an effect that would play off the branches (seen in the vases)… Add some wispy white feathers, blue and white snowflake tablecloth, miniature tea lights,(sprinkled with gold glitter) and a few silver ornaments…voila, the table becomes an [...]

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
