Cowgirl Up #54 with White Lace Cottage



Yee haw!  It's party time. 

Welcome to Week 54
of
The Cowgirl Up! 

Link Party!
1 Party, 5 Blogs  

Our guest host this week is Anne of White Lace Cottage


Hello I am Anne from White lace cottage and I am thrilled that Linsey asked me to host this weeks Cowgirl Up party!

It is such an honor as I adore her style too!


If you know me then you know how much I love anything old and chippy.



I am always on the hunt to find fun and unique pieces for my home.

My style is a little bit of Cottage, a little bit farmhouse and a little bit French Nordic.

All together you get Romantic farmhouse cottage French Nordic.


Yes it's a bit eclectic.

But somehow it all works.

I love using architectural pieces old shutters,doors,windows ladders anything that catches my eye.


Another thing I love to do is to re purpose old treasures.

This old ice cream machine was transformed with some paint to add a bit of character.


Pretty with flowers or old wood bread boards.

I love to surround myself with things that I love.


My favorite places to find treasures are thrift stores and antique shops.


This is what I recently came across.

These vintage pieces with original paint are hard to come by.

Especially when the color is so unique.

Even the barkcloth is sweet on this piece.

I have lots of white in my home.

It's fun to add a bit of color here and there.

I had a hall table here previously.

But thought this would be perfect in this spot.

This shelf I found years ago.

I just can't part with it.

Made from scraps of vintage wood.

I've been playing around with this shelf trying to fix it just right.

I think I finally got the look I was going for.

A sweet chair to sit on.

Or a sweet table....
