Home Tour

Good Morning All, Giving you a little home tour this morning. Raining here, but warm temps today, so that is a good thing! We brought Granny's hoosier cabinet over from the Daisy Inn, and here it sits in my breakfast nook. Granny and I sure did alot of noodle and cookie making on that old cabinet :)
A larger view of the nook...
The other end of the kitchen...
The living room...
The fireplace and window seat area...
The dining room...
And the opposite end...
The stairway, which leads to two bedrooms and a bath...
My front door, which is original to the house...


I hope you enjoyed this little tour and everyone please go on over and some more home tours at...

    What a charming home you have Robin. I grew up in a Cape Cod house very similar to yours. I think my favorite is your window seat with built in bookcases right next to it. So fun!
    Thanks for sharing.

    Robin,

    I enjoyed touring your home. It is so lovely. You've done a fabulous job. I love the Hoosier. My folks had one when I was growing up. I have the bottom half in my basement. I wish it were in good shape like yours.

    Blessings.

    Your house is so absolutely charming in every way.

    The Hoosier cabinet is such a great treasure to feature in that corner of your home. Everything looks so cozy and inviting. Your use of colors and fabrics works so well.

    So glad I stopped in tonight.

    Hi Robin,
    I absolutely LOVE your kitchen and I love your wallpaper too. I don't know what it is about wallpaper that makes a home so cozy. I wish we could have some here in the cottage but our walls are all textured other than the kitchen and laundry/back-porch/entry (it's painted paneling). We have a bit of really old wallpaper in the kitchen that I'll replace when we finally do the kitchen but since we just re-did our bathroom we won't be doing any more renovations for a while. Time to work outside! I hope your weather is better this week and you get to enjoy your garden. Have a great week!
    Maura :)
