I also wanted to show you my new birdcage. It's a wooden, lovely, huge thing in mint green. Unfortuantly it got a bit kicked around during transport, but it still looks rather nice. I am not entirely sure what to do with it yet, but for now it is sprucing up my dining room :)
also bought a old pipe in the uk... for some reason I just really love pipes...
hope you're all having a good day! Will be back soon. I am gonna get out all my buckets and mops sunday and do a proper house cleaning. So maybe It'll be photogenic afterwards eh?

Hello,

I just visited your charming home oh goodness - it is just adorable - I love all things old and worn and your home is a lovely example of a delightful cottage. Thank you for sharing your home.
Have a wonderful day.
My heart and prayers are with your people in Norway.
Blessings,
Erin

hi~ Just visited Jennifer at the old painted cottage AND your beautiful home. YUM! It is so crisp and peaceful. Love your kitchen. Wish mine looked like yours, but . . . it can't. I rent and they just put in new modern cabinets in a reddish brown wood, black appliances, and "fake" granite countertops that scream "fake." YIKES! So NOT cottage style. NO possibility of even asking to paint them. I am addicted to blogging, but had not run across yours. Have it bookmarked. Will return. Thanks for sharing your lovely cottage.
