Hello everyone,
I was really excited to pick up a copy of
the newest Romantic Country magazine
and see our little Boathouse featured as
well as some of my summer garden shots.
So, come into the sun room and enjoy
a cup of tea while we enjoy the spring
flowers and a peek through this lovely
magazine.
I love this pretty porch on
the cover styled by Fifi O' Neil.
Now, for our Boathouse! I am
so proud of my husband and son for
building this little retreat with recycled
materials etc. ~ it is the perfect place to
relax and enjoy life's simple pleasures.
Inside the Boathouse and iced tea
on the porch.
Can't wait until we can enjoy
our meals in the garden again.
Our garden bench nestled among
the perennials.
Thank you Romantic Country
for featuring our Boathouse etc.!
spring cleaning in the Boathouse
to get it ready for the season and
hopefully, relax with a cup of tea
and watch the geese and ducks on
the pond for a spell.
Take care,
Carolyn

Dear Carolyn:
ReplyDeleteI'm with Michele - job well done and can't wait to read it. I have a stack of magazines I haven't had time to open so I will go see if it is here. Congratulations!

ReplyDeleteI picked this magazine up a few weeks ago and when I hit the picture of your boat house - I gasped and said out loud, "That's Carolyn's"! What a surprise and lovely article. I am an avid reader of your wonderful blog and immediately knew it was your style. Thanks Carolyn for all the beautiful blogs and articles you do!
ReplyDeleteWow how exciting! I saw that magazine at the store and thought something seemed familiar but didn't pick it up. I'll have to go back and get a copy of it. Fifi O'neil puts together such wonderful and inspiring images and with your boathouse and beautiful gardens she had wonderful things to work with. Congratulations on your magazine feature!
ReplyDeleteOh my GOODNESS, Carolyn. How wonderful. You and all your family must be so proud! All looks awesome. Susan
ReplyDeleteHow exciting that must be for you to see your beautiful work publicized! Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteHi Liz,
ReplyDeleteSorry for the confusion the porch on the cover styled by Fifi O'Neil is not ours and the Boathouse styling and photos are my own.
Enjoy your weekend!
Carolyn
Congratulations Carolyn on your boathouse feature! I picked up a copy of the magazine the other day but have not opened it yet. I think we are all wishing the cold temps away so we can get into our gardens and get things cleaned up after a long winter. Patty/NS
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the beautiful photos and story in the magazine. I MUST get a copy for me! That is one of my fave magazines....... and a perfect place for the boathouse pictures. I just love love love that sweet little boathouse and every time I see photos, I want to go inside and curl up with my tea and daydream. Your hubby and son did the most wonderful job on it.. and you have done the most wonderful job of decorating it!
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful feature - I must try to find a copy of the magazine and explore further. I sometimes send the link to your blog for my mother who lives across the country to enjoy - she's 94 and on her computer almost every day - she loves your photographs and text (as do I, of course!).
ReplyDeleteCongratulation, your home is so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWhere did you get that gorgeous quilt and shams on pg. 60 of the article? I just love everything in that bedroom! The colors are so soothing.

Love your setups! What brand is that tablecloth with the cabbage rose pattern? Looks excellent with pink spode!
ReplyDeleteHi Rosa,
ReplyDeleteThe tablecloth was a shower curtain from a thrift store with no brand name but I have seen similar fabric at Joanne's Fabric in the past.
Sharon, the quilt you asked about came from a local store Prestige Kitchens.
Thanks everyone for your kind words.
Carolyn
