Rose Cottage

Victorian Cottage in Eureka Springs, Arkansas

This cottage is in the latest issue of Country Living.

I opened the pages of this month's issue and was just enamored with this little cottage.

Look at those turquoise floors!

I'm sure you can see why I'm in love with this place.

That turquoise dining table!...so sweet

The mint colored kitchen hutch?...oh...my...precious.

A window seat with big romantic pillows.

The arch windows are amazing. 

I love how the woodwork is painted white but the mullions are stained wood. 

 

I love the way this has been styled too. Probably can thank Country Living for that.

I love an unstructured kitchen. A kitchen where there aren't typical kitchen cabinets.

That sink is so great....so big...so long...and what about it's legs?

The little green cabinet is so nifty too.

And how about those walls?

More chippy furniture. 

You would think that that floor would not work with that wall...but it does!

Just look at these walls! Scrumptious patina!

The arched window is the perfect backdrop for the bed. 

Perfect styling.

A little room under the gable. It's beautiful in its simplicity.

I need that waste basket.

I just realized after looking at this...that I need a mirror on the porch! 

Of course!

I don't have a spot for one but it sure brings the outside to the other side of the porch.

This is the little shed behind the house.

There are more photos of the cottage on the website.
It's interesting to see the differences between these photos and the Country Living styled photos.

Most of the furniture and accessories are the home owners but seems that
Country Living simplified and of course took photos at the best angles.

Let's compare...

as styled by Country Living

The actual room. The home owner has wonderful things.
But Country Living simplified it.
The addition of the basket at the end of the bed is a real improvement.
Crisp white bedding makes for a very inviting bed.
That little metal table in the foreground got moved to be a bedside table.
I wonder if the homeowners kept the changes.
I would have!
This photo makes me realize I really like non matching bedside tables instead of matching.

I just love the whole look of this place.
I want to book a weekend to stay there...right now!

Have you been to Eureka Springs?
It's a little Victorian Village in the mountains of Arkansas.

I've been there and had a wonderful stay but it's been a long time.
I so want to go there again soon!
