Decorate With Cottage Style

A decorative clock face hangs above a cased opening, marking the transition from the family room to the dining area. To furnish the space, Pamela used a country farm table and a variety of seating options, including an antique bench, ladder-back chairs, and upholstered armchairs. Painted wooden folding chairs with tie-back cushions can be enlisted to accommodate guests, if needed.

Vintage Fabric
An avid collector of old fabrics, Pamela gathers these items from antiques shops and flea markets. She then transforms the precious scraps into everything from pillows to tablecloths and curtains. Faded floral pillows are piled several layers deep on the all-white sofa for a lush look. Likewise, an armchair is upholstered in an eye-popping cherry print.

These linens are also showcased in the cool all-white master bedroom. In keeping with the calming color scheme, an antique shopkeeper's cabinet with glass-front drawers was painted white and serves as an interesting dresser. A flea market painting of roses and an array of old perfume bottles complete the romantic vignette on the dresser. The whimsical chandelier over the bed complements the room's style. A curtained cased opening separates the master bedroom from the family room.
