Grace Cottage



Grace Cottage has been lovingly restored by two friends of ours. 
They have filled it with colonial antiques. 
It is brimming with charm, wit, and country inspiration.

Let's look at the exterior and cottage gardens.




The owners are incredibly talented. 
She is a brilliant decorator and gardener.
 He is incredibly skilled at restoration.
They are the nicest people too.


There is a fountain in front and out back.



A star.


The front flower bed details are quite well thought out. 
Y'all know I love the cloche.



Too see interior images of this home see Country Christmas House.

Come back here next week where you can see the back yard, herb garden, 
log cabin, and out buildings. 
Yes, they have all that on a small city lot.

joy and peace
