Cottage Style (Better Homes & Gardens) by Better Homes and Gardens (2002) Paperback by Denise L. Caringer Editor
I should have loved this. Especially as we just (finally) bought our first house and I can finally do (cheap!) things to make it more ours & less generic. Mostly, though, the images showed too much clutter and busyness.
I am charmed by one spread though, as it shows green walls in a dining area. Sounds terrible, I know. But it's a sort of a dusty celadon, or a dark sage? I don't know; I have to get to a hardware store and look at chips. Paired with white cabinetry and wicker or wooden chairs show more with some cheery but not gaudy prints (painting, cushions, curtains, tablecloth, and/or shallow display shelving) the room is warm, quiet, inviting, but also uplifting.
Well, not bad for a Little Free Library find.
