Hello everyone,
Whenever, I have time these days my favorite place
to go and relax with a tea and a book is our little
boathouse.
Even though it is a short stroll through the
garden to the pond and boathouse it feels
like a little getaway.
The boathouse is furnished with
yard sale and thrift finds etc.
The old door was a $5 find and adds
charm to this corner.
The china is also thrift finds.
I love the teapot..... also $5.
The conservatory on the south
is nice and sunny.
Looking down from the loft.
So, if you can't find me in the garden
there is a good chance I am taking a
little break in the boathouse.

It is cool and damp here so no
painting today but the garden is
calling my name!
I am joining these tea parties today:
Bernideen's Tea Time Blog.
Rose Chintz Cottage.
Antiques and Teacups.
Enjoy your day!

I am so in love with your boathouse! It looks like the room of my dreams! I don't know how you ever bear to leave it! So romantic, so dreamy, so vintage, so pink, so floral, so, so, so PERFECT! What a wonderful spot.
I love these colors. The soft pinks and greens are so restful and one could quickly fall asleep on that sweet bed. Good night!
I got so sleepy I forgot to say that teapot was sure a bargain. I don't think I've ever found one so cute for $5.00!
Oh Carolyn...What a charming retreat! I have a sunroom I love, but your boathouse...and conservatory are wonderful! I love your teacup and teapost. Perfect for a serene and elegant teatime. Thanks so much for linking to Tuesday Cuppa Tea!

Lovely lovely I wish I had a house like that in my garden! Thanks for sharing your paradise with us! All the best Mari
Your boathouse is so charming, Carolyn. I love the mix of fabrics in there. Your teapot was a real bargain and I have the same teacup. Your yardsaling certainly brings some lovely treasures your way. Thanks for sharing and joining me for tea. Stay cozy!
Blessings,

Your Boathouse is very beautiful. I could such have :)
And Your photos are moody and romantic ...
Cordially greetings from Poland :-)
Love it! Your boathouse is the perfect getaway!
What are the dimensions of the boathouse? It looks so roomy but at the same time looks so cozy.
Hope I will be able to come and see your beautiful house, boathouse and garden for myself one day. It looks like a magical spot!

Hi Two Sisters,
The boathouse is 12 by 20 ft. and the conservatory on the back is about 4 Ft by 10 ft. with a small loft on one side.
Rosemary, the door was already pretty much that shade when I bought it. I just gave it a wash of Martha Stewart Plate Green to freshen it up.
Thank you all for your visit and kind words.
Carolyn
Hi Carolyn--your boathouse is the thing of dreams! Lovely pictures, such a relaxing hideaway :)
