Whether you are fortunate to have a cottage or a large home. Before we retired we lived in a large old parsonage. Seen bare no one would have wanted to live in it, but (not bragging) I have each room a personality, and over and over again, people would comment about how cozy and country it looked...It welcomed many friends and church people. Fast forward...we retired 6 years ago and have a very small house ~ I've tried to make it our cottage, and have been successful to my satisfaction. You are a great inspiration...and I've done several things since meeting you on the blog.

I love cozy rooms too. One thing I always like to do is have things scattered around the house that we've picked up while on vacation. I'm always looking for little home decor items when we visit other places. For me, it not only brings back good memories from the vacation, but also adds interest to the room.
