I mentioned in a reply a reader, Bea, that I wanted my cottage to look like a Thomas Kinkade cottage... I couldn't help but find a few examples to share with you. :) I have been busy priming pots today, but hope to put up kitchen pictures yet today!
Here is an old picture our cottage after a bit of landscaping in the front. This is before we added the lavender along with slate path, the wisteria and honeysuckle on a trellis, etc. Everything has filled in so much since then!
Someday we plan to roll our eaves like a storybook house. Our cottage used to have a ballastrade before its 1947 remodel. This picture makes me so jealous that we don't have one anymore! Look! A blue door! Isn't thatch so cute? And look at the windows trimmed in blue. My blue is lighter... but still so pretty! This path is like our slate path. I have ours flanked in lavender with some lanterns lighting the way. There is a gazebo on the lot next to ours. My boys love to play in it.

Your cottage is so sweet. I can just imagine it with all the garden elements in place; antique statuary winding paths, fountains, and flowers everywhere. I am green with envy.
Can you post pictures of what the flowers look like now? Pretty please?
The first picture is SO your cottage (if the porch was enclosed though!).
