Five Ways To Add a Cottage Feel to Any Home. If you are like me, and I think you are, this post is JUST for YOU.

I have Five Ways To Add a Cottage Feel to Any Home from a few of some of my favorite bloggers. Each idea is a DIY Project, and ANYONE can do them. That is what makes it fun and creative.
What’s YOUR style? Farmhouse, Cottage, Modern, Industrial, Eclectic? Each of these Five Ways To Add a Cottage Feel to Any Home will fit in any or all of those aesthetics.
Come on, let’s take a look…
Isn’t this Heavily Distressed Armoire gorgeous? I mean, from the white color, to the shape and then the distressing is perfect in any home.

An 80s Dresser Updated is an easy way to add a fresh new look and feel to any room. I love the idea of having a dresser in ANY room in the house, don’t you? They don’t ALWAYS have to be in a bedroom.

I have my own DIY Mantel Headboard with Vintage Window Frame as a headboard. I searched high and low for a mantel. I had even thought about making my own. But, THEN I came across a steal of a deal on a Facebook group. I was happier than could be with the results.

How create is this Vintage Cabinet Door Towel Basket? I have found several old cabinet doors at Habitat For Humanity for just a few dollars. Such a super easy way to add function and personality to your home.

For a rustic, romantic feel create your own DIY Vintage Shabby Wallpaper Door. Again, finding a door is pretty easy these days, I see them at the thrift store all the time. And they are relatively inexpensive. I LOVE the way Anne created a one of a kind piece.

These ideas for Five Ways To Add a Cottage Feel to Any Home can fit any style, taste and/or aesthetic.
I hope you consider trying one of these projects for your own home sometime soon.
Make it a wonderful Monday, and I hope you don’t have the blues any more.












What absolutely wonderful ways to make your house your home. Thank you for including my dresser, Meegan!
