For the last couple years I have been helping a dear friend pull together this charming cottage on a farm in Tumalo. (That's Central Oregon for you in the city)(click on photos to enlarge)
A simple vignette at the front porch to the main cottage,
Detail of the front door, we found this in Portland at Rejuvenation hardware,
The master bedroom has the most charming view of grazing livestock and the Cascade range beyond,
Let me just say, how wonderful it is to work with someone like my friend who has lived all over the world and collected such treasures it is truly magical, both our friendship and the cottage.
In the sitting area of the master bedroom a rustic painted table is at home with 18 century frame chair vintage Wicker works lounge and a fabulous painted Japanese screen,
A carved wood Buddha stands looking over the distant fields,
I love this tooled silver chest of drawers as a bedside table in contrast with the painted balustrade lamp.
The vintage iron railing we found at a favorite shop in Portland - Bernadette Breu
A separate cottage for guests is nicely appointed with 18 century walnut dresser, Fortuny textiles, fabulous blue & white porcelains and jute cloth curtains. Who wouldn't want to be a guest in this room!
Not only do I love my passion for decorating and collecting but the opportunity to grow and learn every day from friends . . . THANK YOU
