Mermaid Cottages loves our Mermaid Friends and Family, and we love to introduce our readers to those special people, too! Meet Kevin and Layla Palmer. Kevin and Layla are our fabulous friends from Alabama, better known as the couple from The Lettered Cottage! The Palmers are one talented bunch, and we count ourselves lucky to call them friends!

If you haven’t had the chance, make sure you check out The Lettered Cottage blog. Clear your schedule, because you’ll be hooked! Kevin and Layla pour every ounce of passion and talent they have into their blog and projects. In their own words, they are “enthusiastically passionate about writing stories, making music, and interior design.”  The Lettered Cottage began as a place for them to share their projects, life, and basically document their passions. The photography is gorgeous, the projects and stories are always engaging…The Lettered Cottage should simply be on everyone’s daily reading list!

We were fortunate enough here at Mermaid Cottages to have Kevin and Layla visit with us a few times! They have featured two of our cottages in their wonderful Guest My Nest feature. They also put their talents to work in our Screened Inn and Enlisted Men’s Mess Hall Cottages!

As if interior design talent weren’t enough, The Lettered Cottage couple has some serious photography skills under their belt! Kevin recently had his amazing photography of Mermaid Manor featured in Flea Market Style, and he has even started ShootFlyShoot.com to help all you budding photographers out there learn how to shoot like a pro!

We’re pretty sure there’s nothing The Palmers can’t do! We are so thankful to be able to call them friends and part of the Mermaid Cottages extended family! If you’re interested in learning more about Kevin and Layla and The Lettered Cottage, make sure to check out their website. You can also follow them on Facebook, Twitter, and even YouTube! We know we can’t get enough of The Lettered Cottage…how about you?
