Cottage Charm and Coastal Calm

cottage charm and coastal calmGive your home a little cottage charm and coastal calm, even when you don’t live near the sea.  You take home momentos of your beach getaways and the memories linger long after, so give your home a beachy makeover.  You know.  Just a little something to tide you over until you can get your toes in the sand, again.  A knick knack, here.  A tchotchke, there.  A wash of pastel color for your walls, a door or a window.  Textures you can touch when you need that little mental break.  Whether vintage or brand spanking new, it’s up to you to celebrate what you like and to treasure  your time at the beach.

Create an outdoor sanctuary where you can wile away at a leisurely place.  Maybe a swing with coastal inspired pillows like this one at Bluebird Cottage & Nest circa 1900.

tybee island gives you sandy toesTybee Island gives you Sandy Toes and that’s a good thing!  There are plenty of life’s stresses that give you gray hairs, crows feet, acid reflux and way too many frowns, so we’re always looking out for the good things that will make your heart sing.  The owners at our Sandy Toes Cottage have made some very cute updates and photographer Wen McNally has framed them up very nicely for us to share.  Kick off those clodhoppers, dig your toes in some sand and start thinking about your next visit to this cute, pet friendly cottage!

Sandy Toes is an adorable, bright and cheerful single-story cottage that’s located mid-island and about four blocks from the beach.  It’s conveniently within walking distance to Tybee’s Memorial Park where you’ll enjoy tennis, volleyball and basketball courts, BBQ grills, picnic tables and a great playground.
