Grace Cottage Part Two


Welcome back to the extraordinary Grace Cottage. 
Today you will see the side herb garden, the back yard limelight hydrangea garden, 
the log cabin, and other out buildings. 
 All filled with my friend's brilliant primitive style.

It is a photo heavy post so HANG ON.
Get some ice tea. 
Relax.




The prettiest chicken feeder I have ever seen holds court in the middle of the herb garden.


Behind the fence is the back yard. 
The stone patio area was a recent addition.






She has lots of fun decorating inside and outside these buildings.



I apologize for not catching the hydrangeas in bloom and 
that I was out taking photos in the blasting sun. 
This image and all following ones are inside the fence.





A washboard fountain.


I hope you enjoyed this wonderful home and gardens and it's delightful details.

In Olive Out news Joe and I have been going to scads of doctors appointments.
 I had an MRI on my shoulder as my Rheumatologist was shocked
 that one had not been done.
 Joe had really bad health news which I cannot go into now. 
We are still mulling his test results over. 

I am one week late with this promised post and am afraid I will be away again this week.
I have Grand Jury duty starting in the morning.
Say a prayer for me that it will not be a long session as I am not feeling as good as usual.


joy and peace

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.
