One of the first bloggers I ever met was Anne at White Lace Cottage. She lives just north of me and used to sell vintage items at an antique store with several vendors. So one winter’s day hubby and I made the trek up there and lucky for me, Anne happened to be there! Her shabby chic style is romantic yet practical and I think you’ll find her charming home very pretty and feminine.
Anne’s family room is comfortable and stylish. Pretty angel wings embrace a gorgeous shabby chic mirror. A painted blanket chest serves double duty as a coffee table with a beautiful display of roses. You’ll find lots of roses at Anne’s place!
Soft neutrals populate Anne’s living room. Plenty of sunlight fills the room and pretty pillows add interest to the slipcovered couch. Anne adorned her mannequin with feminine angel wings.
Although all of Anne’s home is inviting and pretty, I think her white kitchen is my favorite room. Chandeliers add a bit of glam while a ladder stretching across the cabinets above the sink adds a touch rusticity.
I love Anne’s dining nook next to her kitchen. Soft floral curtains soften the windows and a beautiful painted hutch shows off favorite china and serving pieces. What a great place to enjoy a morning cup of coffee!
Lucky Anne has a beautiful craft studio filled with pretty things.
Did you see the collection of white pitchers holding craft supplies?
Even Anne’s laundry room is filled with eye candy, like the vintage lockers and French baskets.
A vintage scale and more white ironstone pitchers grace the top of the lockers.
You’ll find French inspiration in Anne’s master bedroom.
The four poster painted bed is beautifully distressed and I love the soft draping of the bedspread.
Anne framed out the mirror in her master bathroom and added a bamboo script mat on the floor.
A beautiful bed with a cute kitty takes up residence in another bedroom.
Anne has done a great job blending soft colors and feminine touches throughout her home.
Tonight snow is softly falling outside and I’m curled up on the couch with a soft blanket looking at Alicia’s gorgeous home from A Burst of Beautiful. The soft whites and grays in her home remind me of the new fallen snow outside. Slight hints of blue stream through the snow drifts when the light…

I think today’s home tour just might be the perfect blend for both the husband and wife. If you watch those house hunting shows on T.V., you’ve probably noticed the man typically defers to the wife’s desires when it comes to choosing a new home. Not always, but a majority of the time. Today’s charming…

If I didn’t live in my Victorian cottage, my next choice might very well be a cozy cabin located in the woods or near the water. Today we’re touring a truly charming, cozy cabin located in Buzzards Bay, Massachusetts. Photo by Moger Mehrhof Architects The cabin feels quite spacious due to the white vaulted…
Beautiful! The stained wood furniture (laundry room) and family room furniture add pops of interest to those areas. I have a lot of stained wood furniture (antiques) and now am trying to add whites and creams to softened them and lighten my rooms.
I love white painted furniture. I have brown leather furniture in my family and want so bad to find light beige slip covers for them but I don’t think slip covers will work on leather. Has anyone tried this?? I would then paint the old blanket chest in front of the couch white and distress it.
Hi Jennifer,
Anne is the sweetest and lives near me too as you know. Love her sweet home and all the wonderful shabby chic touches.
Have a wonderful Sunday.
