to the cottage guests now visiting our "Cottage Life" site! My name is Kim and I'd like to invite you to join my husband and me as we, project by project, turn our ordinary little ranch style house into a one-of-a-kind, old-fashioned cottage - and on a very small budget! If you love the charm and simplicity of days gone by, you'll feel right at home here. Please feel free to email me with your questions and comments...and remember to sign my cottage guestbook before you leave! I thought I'd share a few pics of the kitchen island and primitive style farm table we had built. I'm really serious about getting back to basics! Getting rid of our glasstop dining table will help me *so* much when it comes to cleaning. Kids are just walking fingerprints anyway...glass never stays clean, hehe! The back wall behind the table will soon have windows!

"In the past, when asked...why I didnât trace or place my designs down first before plunging into the act of painting⦠it was precisely this âthe "human element," however "imperfect" in itâs final and only execution, seemed to keep it at a safe and honest distance from the cookie-cut industry standard of "beauty" and "perfection."
