I started with my kitchen.
It needed cabinets, counters and appliances.
I bought stock cabinets and counters to save money and did a galley plan. I brought my sideboard into the kitchen for additional storage and counter space and painted it with a homemade paint that gives a chalk like finish.
Then I tackled my spare bedroom, making curtains and shams from tea towels I got in a clearance bin.
I added a shelf desk and painted some grain sack stripes on it to dress it up.
I painted all the ugly orange wood trim in the house. It looks amazing now!
I have plenty left to do, but I’m so happy with how the house looks now. Hope you enjoyed the tour!
Thank you Anne!
You have made some amazing transformations.
I love it all, so cozy, so warm and friendly.
thank you.

Anne’s home is wonderful and I love her style! Jealous of her laundry room with all that storage and folding space. Also love that bistro chair in her bathroom.

So glad you featured this beautiful home! Just lovely!
This is just so pretty and does say “cottage” at every turn. I love that laundry and bathroom, I think, the most of all, but it’s all really lovely.
