Blogger and designer Liz Marie Galvin’s new book’s out today!
I was sent an advanced copy of “Cozy White Cottage: 100 Ways to Love the Feeling of Being at Home” to check out and review, and I must say, it’s just beautiful and so inspiring!
Liz Marie has a great eye for style and she writes about some of my favorite reasons to love being home. In this book she covers every room of the house as well as the garden, porch and entryway.
Within each room of the house, she covers “100 Ways to Love the Feeling of Being at Home”, which I absolutely just love! Some of my favorite subjects covered in the book are:
№ 07 “Top Ten Items to Pick Up while Antiquing”
№ 12 “Rug Placement Tips”
№ 15 “Vintage Collections”
№ 26 “Fireplace Focal Point”
№ 29 “Shelf Styling 101”
№ 46 “Coffee Bar”
№ 50 “Adding the 5 Senses”
№ 66 “Storing and Decluttering Home Décor"
№ 67 “Ten-Minute Cozy Challenge”
№ 78 “Outdoor Living Room”
№ 89 “How to Make a Bedroom Soothing”
№ 100 “Finding Contentment”
And how about this cozy fall tablescape?
It's so pretty for an autumn gathering.
I just love the way Liz Marie curates her home and collections. The light and bright white walls with the contrasting vintage wood furniture has COZY written all over it!
№96 “Fireplace” is just one example of the 100 inspirational tips to consider for our own homes. Doesn't the fireplace looks like it's been there for ages?
Liz Marie and her husband built the whole thing themselves to look perfectly vintage, and the best thing of all, there's a tv hidden behind the two shiplap doors above the mantel.
“I hope through this book and glimpse into our unfinished and imperfect life, people see that they can make their homes cozy no matter what their lives look like right now,” Liz Marie said.
“Whether it’s on a sheep-filled farm, in a modern urban flat, or in a rented townhouse, adding comfort and warmth helps people create a sanctuary to gather in, live in, and love in."
"It’s the best feeling to have a cozy corner of the world that people long to come home to.”
When I received this book, I immediately read the whole thing cover-to-cover, and currently "Cozy White Cottage” is on my nightstand, so every night I read a few little chapters to remind me of how easy it is to add coziness to my own home.
I do love the feeling of being home so much!
