Another favorite little home is Diana Heard’s California cottage. It has many fine French items married to more rustic ones. Diana’s style is very personal and ever so cozy. Come take a look.

It has been several months since I moved to beautiful Stonington Borough, the most charming little village only 4 miles away from Mystic, CT and 8 miles from the Rhode Island border. The house I rented is lovely but it came furnished and the rooms were painted in a variety of colors. This post is about how I updated the interior and ‘beautified’ the exterior, hence the before and after photos. Come on in!
If you don’t already know about CHIC & COUNTRY a beautiful digital UK magazine you owe it to yourself to go to their website (https://www.chicandcountry.com) to discover the many fabulous home stories featuring the styles you love (French Country, Romantic, Nordic, Shabby, and more) but also beautiful gardens, food and flowers.
It’s hard to imagine but this California cottage was had all the charms of a roadside motel. Today blue-painted clapboard (which was once bad stucco), flowerbeds, arbors, and an iconic picket fence transformed the home’s exterior.
