Exceptionally Eclectic – Old Painted Cottage Tour
She bid on 7 houses and lost out on all of them. Luckily, the 8th house was the charm and after a major renovation, Jennifer from The Old Painted Cottage got the cottage of her (and my) dreams.
She loves white kitchens and numbers …
old ladders and drafting stools …
rusty old bar carts and industrial lighting …
stumps from the woods …
Wellies …
cotton and feathers …
chalkboards …
cloches …
and old photographs and antlers.
And she puts it all together with style.
What’s not to love?
Stop by The Old Painted Cottage where you can see more of Jennifer’s home and amazing before and afters.

Love her cottage! So cozy and friendly. She incorporates so many creative and beautiful ideas.
And I just got back from touring your home on her cottage of the month blog. Your home is FABULOUS!!!!! You have done an amazing job of restoring your lovely home. We lived in very old homes in the Midwest, and after touring yours it makes me want one again in a tree lined neighborhood! You are so talented and have such a great style!!

Oh my gosh. The farmhouse sink, the window treatments in the bedroom and all the cottage touches. Just perfection. Thank you for sharing this Kelly…it was a pure delight! p.s. I never see your posts in my FB feed but this was there today. Yay!
You are right…the 8th time was a definite “charmer”….Love Jennifer’s home and the incredible items displayed throughout…Her sense of style is just amazing…I marvel at her beautiful vignettes!
Very lovely cottage. Feels like my Vancouver house, except more monochromatic.
I love every single inch of that cottage!!!
What a lovely lovely home. I just love the style!

Love it all! Where can I find that cloche? Also, I live in North Carolina and I’m still looking for “cotton.” I’d love to display some branches.
I LOVE her house! She’s so talented.
