I bought two beautiful vintage deckchairs for $3 each:
A new pendant light shade from Ikea:
Cushions from Freedom and rug from Ikea:
A little vintage chair for $8 from a local second hand store:
An Ikea bedside table lamp:
Now that the inside is taken care of, it's time to paint some exteriors. This laundry looks so much better in dark charcoal than it ever did in white:
Here it is as a work-in-progress:
I'll keep you updated on the progress of this beach cottage as it undergoes a coat of charcoal paint. Can't wait to see it:

Love all your decorating, and your vintage finds. Leahxx
That dark charcoal looks amazing with a white trim, it seems to hide the imperfections of the wall.
I love this shade of grey.

Hope you're enjoying the w/end

Gorgeous! This is so inspiring. Love the vintage deck chairs and can't believe you found those for so little $$. Who does your upholstery?
I love making the place all cosy it's the thing that most excites me about autumn and winter, I am really enjoying the sunshine right now though! Lovely buys :) xxx
love all your fabrics..the charcoal exterior will look great!

Your pozzie on the water looks absolutely idyllic. It looks like summer, carefree, low tech, healthy and the sort of place where you grow up pottering in boats, swimming, barbequing, sleeping on the grass.....
p.s I like the charcoal laundry, it looks crisper or something...can't pin point it.
Just wanted to let you know that I'm passing along The Versatile Blog Award to you. Do with it what you will, but come and see!
