A Sweet Sister's Cottage

With only one night to spend in New Hampshire, 

my Mister's sweet Sis 

lent us her cottage for the night, 

while she stayed with her Mom. 

Let's take a peek (with her permission)

at her charming New England Style.

I have used a sepia tone in my photos
 to translate a sweet nostalgic feeling.

As a hard working single gal with an empty nest, 

she rents a wing of this beautiful

country home. 

We park by the landlord's son's tree fort. 

Don't you love tree forts? 

We walk past the front porch of the main house....

to her cottage wing. 

Let's go inside! 

We walk down the entry hall, 

looking back at the door, 

We see a little table decorated for the season. 

Let's take a closer look....

A sweet vignette. 

A dear little scarecrow, 

 A hand painted sentiment,

A tiny wreath and hand stitched sachet. 

The charming shelf above. <3

The hallway leads to a bright and airy kitchen

with envious storage. 

A cozy sitting room with french door leads to a private patio. 

Family photos fill this home with love. 

Here she is, second from left next to my Mr. and their siblings. 

More precious photos including her sweet daughter.

My Dear Mother-in-Law
as a sweet child and beautiful young woman.

I've always been fascinated by a person's selection of art, 

as it says so much about personality. 

Here we find a lover of country simplicity and charm....

This wonderful print hangs above the sofa.
I love how you can see inside the window. 

I love this! <3

A wonderful still life. 

A pretty stitched reminder.

Precious mementos. 

We relax, surrounded by a sister's love. 

We enjoy a comfortable night of sweet dreams. 

Thank you, Sis, we wish we could stay forever.

Next time:

We attend the wedding!
