Hi everyone! I hope you are having a great weekend! We are headed off to play/sing at a wedding this afternoon, and it’s a gorgeous spring day!
I thought I would put together a little home tour with photos I already had and link up to Andy over at “Poppies at Play” for the first time. So come on up to the cottage in the woods…
We’ll sit and chat in the living room…
Warm and cozy with English transferware, antique walnut sideboard, Persian wool rug, vintage lamps, family photos.
Vintage print…
Turkish lanterns, Talavera pottery, vintage lamp
…just a peak at the new built-in walnut corner cabinet as yet unfinished:-)
Maybe we can sit around the piano…
The dining room is in a state of transition right now with the new built-in walnut china cabinet my husband is making. so I’ll show you these photos from last summer…
Fostoria “Baroque” candle holders, Duncan Phyfe style chairs, wormy chestnut table I made…
Let’s make a cup of coffee…
More Talavera pottery…
Hall bathroom…
Cristian’s bedroom, also in a state of transition. We will be painting more of a dusty blue now that we have found the airplane bedding.
The master bedroom…
Inherited antique spool bed from 1860s, vintage lamps, handcrafted side tables, antique rocker and chair, vintage watercolor
Victorian era dresser, vintage hatbox, lamp, candle holders
And the master bath…
My most popular photo on Houzz…this was a pot rack my mom gave me from JC Penney, and it works just great here in the bath. Unfortunately, they do not sell it anymore.
Let’s head out to the back porch…
We will have our dinner out here on the porch and just enjoy listening the the birds and the rushing mountain creek.
Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you enjoyed the tour! Thanks to Andy for hosting this fun party!! Be sure to go by “Poppies at Play” and take some fabulous tours:-)

What a lovely home you have Anita. You have so many antiques and vintage things ~ beautiful. I think my very favorite is your front porch though. Loved the picture with the ferns and rockers. I could be very happy out there for hours with a good book!
Thanks for sharing.

Anita, I enjoyed this so much! You really do have a lovely home, and the adjective I think that best fits is warm. It is so warm. I feel as if I could be right at home there. I love the mix of your family antiques with the Persian rugs and the leather seating. I love all the warmth of the woods and the fabrics you've chosen to accent them. I think your house is a lot like you, my friend, even though we haven't met in person.
Hope you have a wonderful time at the wedding. What a blessing that you have that ministry and what a blessing you are to others.
Love coming your way…
XO,
Sheila 🙂
Oh my gosh, I love your home! So comfy, cozy!
Thanks for the tour Anita.
So warm, cozy, and comfortable…enjoyed the tour!
Hi Anita, thank you for the tour of your beautiful home. I always love seeing your living/dining room and kitchen and it's nice to peek at your bedroom and baths as well. Love the spool bed. Your back deck and front veranda are beautiful. What a spot to enjoy the scenery and the lovely summer weather. Blessings, Pamela
Beautiful, Anita, just beautiful. The pot rack in the master bath is a genius idea. I love the whole house but I really love your warm and inviting kitchen and dining room. You really put your heart and soul into making this a home, and it shows. xo,

Anita, your home exudes warmth and welcome. In addition to having a perfect setting in the mountains, it showcases your loving touch in the beauty and charm of every space. I'm certain that I'm not the only one of your devoted followers who would love to sit and chat a spell on one of the porches, or cozy up in a chair and listen to soft strains on the piano. Your loving touch is apparent in every detail.

Oh what a fabulous cottage in the woods!
I LOVE the front porch and the back porch. It must be like sitting in a treehouse out there. How heavenly.
Your entire home is just beautiful and so well done.
So glad I stopped by tonight.

You are a woman after my own heart! I just love your home with the rich, warm colors. That is how I color my home as well! You home is just beautiful and I love the way you have decorated. Thanks for the tour!
Your home is beautiful and your style is so similar to mine. I love every bit of it. I am so jealous of the front and back porch, what a luxury.
Anita, you have the most beautiful, homey house. Thank you for the tour. I think my favorite is the living room. You did a great job with the photos.
Pat

Here from Poppies at Play! Thanks for sharing your home! I especially notice your lovely antique furniture (because I have none:)… namely that spool bed! You have a very welcoming and warm home and it looks like you know how to properly enjoy the outdoors from your porch! I sat outside today in my fold up camp chairs… just can't bring myself to buy outdoor furniture until I find something I really like (and can afford:). Happy Springtime to you!
I'm just getting caught up on blogs, and I loved your tour. I've always known from the snippets I've seen of your house in previous posts that I loved your taste.
The full tour was just wonderful, and I can't possibly pick a favorite room.
If I had to pick a favorite THING it would be the cool as beans pot rack turned towel rack.
If I had to pick a place I'd most like to sit, it would be at that table on the porch.
Love it all. It says "well appointed HOME" to me.
Just found your lovely blog. I've enjoyed taking in all your photos and posts. Your home is so warm and inviting. I love your spindle bed in the master. My favorite is your back porch. It is to die for! So gorgeous.
I'm your newest follower and would be delighted to have you follow me back.
Have a melodious day!
Tammy
Oh Anita, your home is absolutely stunning!! You had me at the front porch!! Your pictures are so elegant and filled with beautiful things to stare at! After I comment, I'm going back up for another look! Lovely, just LOVELY!
Thanks for joining the parade!
