    What a wonderful gift from the previous table owner. Definitely worth the wait. It's always interesting to see how different folks arrange furniture. I really liked your wing back chair in the corner by the window. It made for a cozy reading nook. Depending on the dimensions, I would have placed the sofa parrallell to the fireplace and the loveseat under the mirror, or visa versa if the sofa is too long. The round table could then go in the corner created by their arms and be used by folks sitting in either space. That way you're not covering up your heat register with the sofa. That would leave the window free for decorating later. So many options. So much fun!

    I'm really enjoying your videos (I'm from the UK). One thing you might like to consider to create a more cottage style is to change out the light blue marble effect wallpaper for a more traditional floral pattern? I think you would love it.

    • @StoneCottageHome
      @StoneCottageHome  2 роки тому +2

      Hello, Miss Diana!
      Thank you for your tactful suggestion! I'm laughing as a write, that "marble" effect wallpaper is actually waves (which we've never understood for a living room), and was chosen by the original home owners. We'd love to change it! But the kitchen is probably going to rank on the priority list first. 😉 Welcome from the UK! Thanks for stopping by!

    The round table is gorgeous. My grandparents had the exact table in their living room in their home. They both picked out quality pieces that are meant to last a lifetime. I'm 65 and this was one of my favorites growing up. They are both gone now and their daughter has it in her home. It still looks gorgeous. So happy for you on this beautiful timeless piece! From Texas. 😊

      Good afternoon, Michelle!
      Oh yes, I'd love to remove that wall paper & border! It came with the house and hasn't made it to the top of the priority list...yet. We have done all the remodeling ourselves as budget and time allow. For now, ideas are percolating... Maybe whitewash the brick, maybe paint the shelving. I'd love to recover the teal loveseat... More fun projects to share in the future! I appreciate the suggestions and your time in joining me today!

    OK, I am having way too much fun looking at the design of your living room! Do you know what could be a good in between until you’re able to change out the carpet down the road… I would add a lovely old vintage or very inexpensive oriental type rug or even seagrass… Tho the oriental rug would add more of a pop! Please forgive me for offering advice or ideas! I do this part time for a living, and I get so excited to see the direction you are headed with your house! Also, do you have plans for your walls or that wallpaper border?

    • @StoneCottageHome
      @StoneCottageHome  3 роки тому +1

      I totally understand the excitement ~ especially if the style is close to your own! I love getting the feedback and suggestions, they are a help. Yes, eventually we'd like to lay wood flooring throughout the house when the budget allows. And, yes, I would totally do an oriental rug! The wall paper (and border) will definitely go. They came with the house, and I've never quite understood waves in the living room? There is also glittery popcorn on the ceiling... Lots of projects! Only two of us, but we are enjoying the journey. If you enjoyed this video so much, you might enjoy our English cottage guest bedroom makeover series...

My choice of blue and white transferware 60 yrs. ago has never changed usually blue willow eh? ....thats for everyday.. I'm always fascinated how you find the perfect pillows, lamps and artwork for your rooms!,....everything looks beautiful and I had a soft spot for the brass piece with the tiny feet and then you added feathers!...how gifted you are Rachel I can sense how much you enjoy the whole process Matt puts me in mind of my Dad.....he could fix anything ! Thanks for sharing affectionately, Susan from London Ontario

    Your china shopping makes me jealous. I have a decent collection of china, crystal, and transferware - but when my husband and I combined houses, he had three young boys... so it's all packed away! I'm just starting to pull it out again and rediscover all the chintzy loveliness I've stored away!

    Absolutely lovely changes. It was a terrific pillow cover that you made. I would have liked to have seen it on the chair. I have one question how do you store the items you use between seasons? When storage is at a premium I always find it difficult putting things away and then rediscovering them when the season rolls around again. I am always interested in how other people work out that. In case it might be something useful that I could do. Thanks for a great video.

    Your thrift choices are beautiful. The gifted round table is perfect; I remember my grandmother had one! The new pillow cover, birthday painting from your MIL, your husband’s meaningful work of art and display on the fireplace so lovely too. Unfortunately, the position of the pillows and throws on the sofas to me overpower the look of the room (sometimes less is more in a space IMO).

      Good evening, Miss Angela!
      I'm glad you found the decor to resonate with your taste. In hindsight I would agree with your throw/pillow thoughts. The color of the loveseat isn't my choice so I try to do the best I can. At some point we may be able to either recover or replace it - for now it's super comfy so I'll enjoyed that aspect! Thanks for stopping by!

    Lovely Rachel, you've done an amazing job with your living room. It looks like something out of a story book. I've become obsessed with red/pink transfer ware. So any chance I find it at reasonable prices I'll snap it up.
    It's still really cold here in South Australia and we've been told to expect a wet summer. That means it's going to be very cold at night where I live. I've managed to find an antique spinning wheel and will be joining a spinners group a couple of towns over. Hoping to eventually spin my own fibre, I have sheep and goats, all rescues, and then turning that into jumpers and blankets. I think this will help keep me warm on those cold nights xx

    I was SO excited to see another video from you!! As I was watching, I said to my Husband....you are my twin!!! 😂😂😂. It's amazing of the things you can find at the Thrift Store and Facebook Marketplace. I have found many treasures in both. Just recently, I had been looking for a Duncan Phype Table. The Thrift Stores were too price for my budget and I happen to find one on Facebook Marketplace for half the price from the Thrift Store and FREE delivery!!! ☺️☺️☺️☺️. I am now on the hunt to collecting Vintage Dog Art. The Scottish Terrier are my favorite! To me they say English Cottage. So I'm dreaming of creating a Gallery Wall of my love for dogs! 💚🐩. I also picked up a Antique Violin 🎻 from the Thrift Store, so I was pretty excited when I saw yours. I wish I could send you some pictures. Your videos have been so inspiring!!! Thank you!!! 💚❤️💚❤️💚❤️ Happy Fall 🍁🎃🧡🍂🍁🎃🍂🍁🕯️

      It's always fun to read your comments ~ I believe we do have similar taste in home décor! I would love to see pictures of your home and of the "hauls" you discover! Funny enough, I have two Duncan Phyfe chairs from the thrift store, and I spotted a cast iron spaniel dog door stopper recently that I wish I'd bought...
      I'm thrilled with FB Marketplace! Since finding that table I've found a lovely cherry Campaign style side table as well. Your vintage dog gallery wall sounds lovely. I wish I could see it too! Most of all I'm thrilled your find the videos inspiring ~ that is why I make them!
      Warmly,

    the only piece that i think detracts from your room is the sofa w/all the different coverings. it detracts from your vision of a cozy but typical well ordered british style living room.
    a one piece slip cover would be a much better choice & investment until you could find another sofa/love seat that you like better at a fair price. you might even find that the slipcover makes your sofa perfect with just that. thats my 2cents. everything else looks charming. i enjoy your talent.

      Hello, Miss Marlene!
      Thank you! There is truth in your observations. I'm starting to build our home with the pieces we've been given. It takes time to save up the resources for "new" pieces. Every chance I get I choose pieces that support my style, and in the mean time some items will clash with others until they're replaced. The idea is to do the best you can with what you have.
