What a gorgeous glamour cottage! Love how you've done it. When we moved into Shirley Jackson's old house at Bennington, the college had painted over everything this awful institutional white. I went in with that same Farrow & Ball shade, along with loads of textiles, and the whole place became a wonder.
We didn't have a summer house when I was growing up. My mom and I would visit her family in the Adirondacks for a week or so every Summer. Eventually we had a home there, but I was grown up by then.
I went to a camp for eight weeks from age 9 to 15. So, when I had kids my husband and I wanted them to have a touch stone summer house. A place to relax and exhale. It isn't fancy and there is always something broken or worn out, but it's super cute. No end to the projects we can do here!

It is amazing what paint can do! And textiles...pictures?
Love the pillow that says If it's not one thing, it's your mother
and guess who gave it to me?
