Flea Market Cottage Full of Color

home tour May 31, 2020

Last week I featured kitchens that used the color turquoise, and one of those kitchens belongs to the flea market cottage I’m showcasing today. So step on in and be prepared for lots of bright colors and vintage finds!

The cottage is typical flea market style with bright colors and unique finds like the fancy birdcage and blue wicker chair (which I love).

I realize this charming little flea cottage might be too colorful for some of you, but I don’t think you can deny its element of fun. Imagine the years of hunting to find all the vintage treasures that fill each room.

Bright colors continue into the kitchen where you’ll see cheery sunflowers and an array of vintage kitchen items.

More vintage paintings create a gallery wall up the staircase, while flea market finds line the shelves of a built-in bookcase.

Even the outdoor spaces showcase colorful vintage treasures. Makes you wonder how long it took to acquire so many collectibles.

    I love the bright colors. Though I would not use the “flea market” art or so much on one wall there is inspiration in each photo. I use art and photos of family and collected travels over the years. Thanks for sharing! Have a good day.

    Thanks for this post …. I love this style although it is not very much like my own home. However, there’s something so terribly cheerful about it that I just think it’s lovely. Always have wondered if it would be too stimulating to live with?

    Love to see the color, it’s so nice to see. It’s so cheerful and happy. It seems so many people have embraced the white-black modern farmhouse to the extreme, that it’s refreshing to have some colorful whimsy.

    I love it! It’s so bright and happy, and a welcome change from all of the bland, neutral, interchangeable, cookie cutter houses out there!

    Love it!! Only an artist, with a strong dose of order, could pull this off! I’m guessing that most of the paintings are hers. VERY cute!
    Amazing sense of color use balanced with cottage simplicity. SOOOOO FUN 👏👍😇

    Too colorful? Never! The pops of black help ground it. I always love it when you show us lots of color. My favorite. Reminds me of my own home. Couldn’t live a happy life without it.

      Yes, it seemed lacking in Harmony. Everything was fighting each other for attention? It didn’t gel.

    I love all the color and vintage finds. I love to do vintage finds myself although I’m not on this scale. This is so cheery and would love to come home to this.

    such a happy place. I expected, at any time, to hear the ringing of the bell for cookie time. Very uplifting.

    Ha! Not long at all…to find all these collectibles…if you are an inveterate thrift store shopper, speaking as one. This is a little colorful for me, but a fun boho look that would be a great deal of fun to put together for a second home, cabin or beach cottage…something totally different for a short while before you returned to the more restful tried and true.

    I love the color. I am so sick of the all white and gray trends. I don’t even have white walls. This is definitely my kind of style – so cozy and inviting.
