Farmhouse Charm

August 25, 2017 By Elizabeth@ Pine Cones and Acorns 5 Comments

Good morning! I hope that your week is going well, if it is not going according to your plans the good news is that tomorrow is Friday!

Farmhouse from Little White House Blog

The weather here has been brutal, 95, 97, and 93 so far, this week,  add in the 100% humidity and it feels a lot hotter. Needless to say my mind is at the beach, in the sun and on bbq’s, not candy corns and trick or treat.

That said as I was perusing Pinterest the other day I fell in love with this pin and consequently the blog it came from Farmhouse 5540.

I personally love a beautiful farmhouse, in my imagination I see a 2 story white clapboard house in the middle of a few acres with a little orchard off to one side. I image the house having a wrap around porch on the first floor and off onside of the second floor another porch for sleeping on hot summer days.

I imagine a beautiful, but hardworking kitchen with a dark blue Aga stove, white ironstone pitchers filled with wooden spoons, and a freshly baked cake on a cake stand handed down from one generation to the next.

Just across from the open kitchen is a keeping room with two comfy chairs set in front of a roaring fire and a small table to the side of each to hold steaming mugs of hot cocoa and books while watching mom prepare dinner.

I personally love farmhouse details and have a lot in my own kitchen, the collected spoons in pitchers, vintage mortar and pestles, dough bowls and cutting boards that tell a story each time you use them, if you stop to listen.

    I love the copper plated basket set. Wouldn't they be pretty on open shelving in a pantry!

    Oh, a screened-in sleeping porch would be heaven.
    One of our vacation rentals has an enormous kitchen. I love it more than my own. Marble fireplace big enough to stand in. Big old table in the center, for extra workspace and also because the kitchen is the heart of the home, and there should be a place for loved ones to join the cook, whether to help or to simply keep company.

    I love a farmhouse. I prefer a European style such as French, English or Scandinavian, but an American farmhouse as such will do!

“Learn to love and appreciate the good in others “Learn to love and appreciate the good in others.” Good afternoon friends, it’s the last day of February, which is called heart month, not only for Valentine’s Day but for heart health as well.

Did you know that heart disease is the leading cause of death in women? Ladies if you don’t take care of yourself no one else can, eat right and get moving, cardio vascular exercise is great for your heart!

This is how I feel tonight, as if I am seeing life This is how I feel tonight, as if I am seeing life through the blur of tears and sorrow. Sunday night my friend of 34 years lost her husband of 36 years, because of Covid he did not get to meet or hold his newborn grandson. Then just an hour ago we received a call that my husbands best friend died of a massive heart attack this morning. Sometimes life just knocks you to your knees and all you can do is pray for the  loved ones you’ve lost, cherish their memories and let your time with them sustain you until you meet again. Then you ask God for the strength to get up and move forward. #life #loss #givemestrength #givemestrengthlord #pray
Although I see signs of spring, a daffodil popping Although I see signs of spring, a daffodil popping up from the ground, bright and colorful flowers in the garden center the weather and the calendar tell me otherwise. So I am hunkering down and taking solace inside enjoying the details of a collected home and life. This tapestry is a piece that we purchased over 25 years ago in Paris, it hang in the dining room and makes me smile every time I see it because it reminds me of such a happy and beautiful place. What do you collect? What brings you joy in your home? #collectedhome #collectedlook #homedecor #myhome #homesweethome #interiordesign #frenchprovincial #france #frenchdecor #tapestry #instahome #instahomedecor #acolectedlife #collection
Good afternoon friends, it’s a frigid day here. Good afternoon friends, it’s a frigid day here. How is it in your “neck of the woods?” We took a long road-trip a few weeks ago to the beautiful @colonialwmsburg . I love this place, there is so much to see and do and even wearing masks and social distancing you can still enjoy the history and the beauty of this living museum. Today I am home doing the weekend chores, and of course doing a little baking. I hope that you have a fabulous weekend. #colonialwilliamsburg #williamsburg #colonialhouse #livinghistory #livinghistorymuseum #museum #winterfun #roadtrip #wanderlust #weekend #weekendvibes #weekendmood

“If winter comes, can spring be far behind?” ~ “If winter comes, can spring be far behind?” ~Percy Bysshe Shelly  my answer to that is I hope not! This has been a strange winter and I am sure that for the 4 million people without power in19 states they are hoping spring is sooner rather than later. I hope that you are all well and keeping safe. I’m praying for all of you without power and heat and hope it is restored soon. #pinkaesthetic #art #acrylicpainting #painting #details #artistsoninstagram #artwork #artworld #color #artoftheday #quote #quoteoftheday #quotestoliveby #artofinstagram
