snug in a corner of our backyard sits a sweet little refuge known as {. the cottage .}, das Gasthaus. soon a coat of grey-blue paint will grace it's exterior (as shown on the adirondack chairs), devonshire cream on the trim (shown on door), interior insulation and bead board, wood floor, and a built-in bed.
interior is 10 x 12
porch is 10 x 4
dresser, comfy chair, heater,
a/c, cozy comforters, coffee maker
and luggable-loo (for nighty time tinkles),
lots of flowers and a brick path.
.. prettiness and hominess ..
. it's gonna happen .
the 5-panel door is vintage,
from my brother in law's
childhood home.
i'm thankful and honored
to use it in this way ..
can you envision what the interior
will reflect when completed?
think : white, lapis blue, touches
of yellow, orange and black.
. Willkommen .

How sweet!
Oh now that will just be precious and practical too! I saw something similar to that on a show on HGTV called Sarah's Summer House. Can't wait to see the results.
That is so nice! Did you all build that or did it come on a flatbed trailer for you to finish? What a wonderful idea for a little guesthouse.

Hello, I'm Susan and we need to get better acquainted so I can come stay in this cozy cottage :-) And a plus, Ich kann ein bisschen Deutsch sprechen.
Actually, I can only say about 4 more things besides the above!
It's a darling cottage - God bless.
Your cottage is so adorable!! How fun it will be to fix it up! I can't wait to see how it turns out. :)
Ok, so I am officially jealous!!! How much fun you're going to have with this!
I love it!!!
What another exciting project. Look forward to seeing the finished product. Merry Christmas to you!
Oh my! It's already perfect so with your finishing touches it will be even more perfect.
I want one. I'll post a photo of my covered patio in the backyard. I think it would be cool enclosed. What a fun project. Thanks for posting and keep us updated as the fun continues.
What's going on with baby trailer? Need an update. I've been so out of the loop.:)
