a collection of lovely spaces. home inspiration. pretty pictures. fabulous renovations. good photography. lifes happenings. creative outlet. architecture appreciation. vintage finds. a daily escape.
OK, so these definitely seem out of place with the below 20 degree temperatures we are having around here, but they look like a perfect little getaway in your own backyard. I am ready for warmer weather.
Summer Houses are common in European gardens. Fell in love with them there.
I put them in a lot of landscape designs. Budget concerns?
Begin with 6" x 6" posts, stone floor, roof. Add back wall, the next year. You may decide to stop there. The next year add side walls. Stop there? Keep going, add the front wall/door.
I love these - I would love to make a little studio/workshop space in my backyard and a terrace for entertaining... this post is officially bookmarked!
I love this idea - you don't see it much here in Queensland. I would love to have one of these as a craft/painting room {save our poor rumpus room from the mess} xx

What lovely, refreshing images. It's bitterly cold here too. This was a very welcome break.
Thanks.

Add fireplace, TV, comfortable seating.
Fabulous pics, & a nice mix you posted.

These are great! I would love to have a cottage for my kids in the backyard, as well as one to house my own office. A girl can dream...

I love the idea of having a little getaway in my backyard. I need one.
A BIG thank you from the frozen tundra that is Virginia. These warmed up my heart if not my toes!
Oh Em Gee. I WANT one. I have the perfect weather for 'em. :p
Can you imagine walking out in your backyard to one of those? Fabulous!
Every Mom needs a place to escape to. I would love one as a little retreat, a place to paint, to dream and to have a tiny tea party.

I want the first or seventh image to live in my backyard.
