The Distinctive Cottage

Bedrooms

Inspiration Board: Seaglass

We never tire of the beautiful hues in a seaglass color palette! This charming seaside bedroom set is an eclectic mix, and each piece has their own personality within a complementing color palette. By mixing blues, greens, and whites in varying shades, you create an eye-popping space with lots of character. Don’t be afraid to venture out of the matchy-matchy bedroom sets, and put the room together with different pieces in a cohesive range of colors.

Coastal & Beach House

Color Board: Rust, Gold & Bay Leaf

This Cat’s Paw rug is the primary focal point in this playful, yet refined, color palette. The bold print of the rug adds a touch of whimsy to the otherwise reserved linens and embossed fabrics. The array of colors in the rug provides endless cottage style decorating ideas for coordinates, but these fabric choices are designed for a more formal space that wants to avoid a stuffy appearance. The gold and red fabrics provide warmth, and, accompanied by the rug, create a friendly and inviting environment.

Get The Look: Seaside Living Room

This beautiful seaside living room, featured in April’s issue of Coastal Living Magazine, is part of the new Beach House Hotel in Turks and Caicos! We wanted to show you that you don’t have to go overseas to create this breezy getaway feel in your own home. Seafoam, tan, and white fabrics create a dreamy feel that instantly transports you to a sandy and serene place. The casual and comfortable slipcovered sofa and chairs make this space not only beautiful, but practical too. Slipcovers are easy to clean and allow for a no-fuss living space. Another great detail in this space is the driftwood style reclaimed wood TV stand that adds diversity and interest to this calm space.

Rooms To Love: Coastal Retreat

This sea inspired living room evokes absolute tranquility with the soft hues and comfortable fabrics filling the room from top to bottom. The overstuffed and causally slipcovered furniture makes the space welcoming, inviting, and friendly to all who enter. Using natural fibers for the coffee table, large area rug, and window shades adds an organic element that complements the coastal style furnishings. The large striped window treatments in coastal shades adds a breezy touch to the dramatic windows.

Color Board: Funky Fresh

The combination of modern prints gives this sea glass scheme a new kick. The rug’s deeper blue & green tones help to ground the light and airy fabrics. Color placement is essential in this charming coastal decorating scheme to keep the buoyant fabrics at eye level on sofas and chairs, and place the deeper tones on the floor in the rug.

Inspiration Board: Whimsical Sun Porch Dining

The best part of a sun porch is that you can outfit it as an extension of your home!  This aqua and coral color palette is made more diverse with the addition of reds, greens, mustard yellows, and darker stains.  It is a whimsical and cheery palette that creates the perfect surroundings for a fun outdoor family space.  #farmhousetables #cottageporches #cottagewickerfurniture #inspirationboards https://www.cottagehomefurniture.com

Rooms To Love: Colorful Cottage Bedroom

A bright and bold spin on traditional cottage styles breathes new life into this colorful cottage bedroom. The embellished turned detail and the over-sized carved curls on the bed are a modern twist on the traditional Chippendale style bed frame. The upholstered bench mimics the rounded curl from the bed with high rolled arms, and is in an adorable small scaled check print. Layering color and different fabric prints gives this bedroom a contemporary, yet quaint, cottage look and feel. This room encapsulates eclectic in an orderly fashion by keeping the clutter to a minimum, and the paintings on the wall sparse, allowing the color palette to really shine!

Rooms To Love: Beach Bungalow

The white slipcovered loveseat with high flared arms sets the tone for this beach bungalow. The crisp white fabric plays beautifully with the floor-to-ceiling windows, which allows the sunlight to pour into the room. Pops of color are scattered to offset the light to ensure the room maintains balance. The blend of bold colored accents immediately takes you to a beach landscape with the aquas mimicking the ocean and the oranges evoking a brilliant summer sunset.

Color Board: Coral & Aqua

Stimulate, revive and rejuvenate. Modern coral is enlivening and warming, great for a bath or shower room. Fresh and invigorating, this vibrating palate of corals and turquoises is a contrasting mix of brights. Even if every other room is calm and natural, go to town in a bathroom with decorating ideas and colors you simply love.

To our valued customers,

Given the current market uncertainty, we felt it would be a good idea to provide you an update on our products. As you may know, we are a small, family-owned business that has been offering custom made furniture from our 15 US based workshops for over 20 years. Each of our custom furniture collections is made at a different workshop. We are a small business that supports other small businesses.

Fortunately for us, our workshops have minimal exposure to import tariffs. Our wood species (both new and reclaimed), iron beds, upholstery frames, seat cushions and floor cloths are all sourced in the US. Selective hardware, shoreline fabrics, and finishing products are imported but are a small percentage of our overall cost. Our wicker furniture frames are imported but cushions are all sourced in the US.

Currently, we have two collections affected by tariffs:

Cottage Wicker Furniture Collection: 6% Tariff
Shoreline Slipcovered Furniture Collection: 3% Tariff

We do not anticipate any significant price changes due to import tariffs. We look forward to continuing to create unique furniture designed by you and custom built for you.

Thank you,

Your Cottage Home Team
