New Hampshire Part 1 ~ The Hancock Inn

Hi Everyone,

Hubby and I were very fortunate to take a trip to New Hampshire at the
 end of September to celebrate our 20th Anniversary.
I have always wanted to go to New England and I finally made it.
We decided to stay in the little town of Hancock, NH at the Hancock Inn.


As you can see it's very old . . .


. . . and so very charming.


The Inn has 13 guest rooms and each one is unique.
We stayed in the John Freeman Eaton Room.
It was on the third floor along with creaky floors and
windows that had to be propped open with a piece of wood - loved it!


Here are some more interior shots.
Every nook and cranny had something wonderful to look at.




Breakfast was included and was super yummy.
Fresh fruit and homemade granola were served every morning
and then you could select from a menu.
The French Toast was amazing.
I didn't take any pictures of the food - I guess I was too busy eating it!



They also have a wonderful dinner menu.
I tried the apple parsnip soup one evening.
  I wasn't really sure I would like it but just wanted to try something different.
Let me tell you, it was so yummy, I ate every last drop!




We loved everything about this place.
The Innkeepers as well as everyone who worked there
 were beyond friendly and accomodating.

Here's a look at the Inn from the back.


Here is a link to their website if you would like to see
 more including pictures of all of the guest rooms.

I'll be back soon with more pictures of Hancock and some of the
other towns we explored in New Hampshire.
(There might have been a bit of shopping involved too!)

Blue Kitchen Cabinets 2017

I have done a couple posts on kitchens with blue cabinetry in the past, after all it is my favorite color. It has been awhile though, so today I have rounded up some more  amazing kitchens with cottage style that also incorporate blue in  the design. source The kitchen above and the one below have white upper cabinets and soft shades of blue on the lower ones. This is a nice way to use blue without going overboard or ending up with something that you would get tired of quickly. source source Finding the right shade of blue would be key and using a lot of white and wood tones along with it creates a beautiful and timeless look. source source Isn't the kitchen above just so very unique? It has sort of a french country feeling but in an updated way. Wish there was a better picture of the script that's on the wall  on the right. source This kitchen is from Remodelondo la Casa and I've always thought the w

AFFORDABLE WALL DECOR

Hi Everyone, One of the things I find the most difficult about decorating is finding wall decor that I like and is also affordable. That is one of the main things that I am always on the hunt for and sometimes I have to come up with some creative ideas. Just yesterday, I found this beautiful image of a  white hydrangea at The Graphics Fairy . The Graphics Fairy I printed it out in a size that would fit in a frame that  I already had.  I think it looks so pretty in the simple white frame. I'm probably going to hang it in our bedroom. I'm making a few small changes in there and I will show you when it's completed. This star is actually from the garden section of our local Meijer store.  It was originally silver metal and I spray painted it white. I have seen a lot of people decorate with bread boards. This one fit perfectly in the narrow space between my  cabinet and window and I love the warmth of the wood.  I love th

Family Room Reveal

Hello Everyone! I've been meaning to post about our updated family room for a very long time and I'm  finally doing it - yeah!! I had been ready to replace our brown leather furniture for a while and when a new Ikea opened very close to us last summer, I jumped at the chance to take a good look at their slipcovered furniture. Originally the plan was to buy another sofa and loveseat like we had but when I  saw the Ektorp sectional on the showroom floor at Ikea, I was sold.   It just seemed so cozy and I could really envision it in our family room. As you can see, we purchased the sectional with the white slipcover. You just can't beat the prices at Ikea and the quality is definitely good enough for us. I'm at a point where I don't want to buy expensive furniture that I feel like I have to keep forever.   We even had the sofa delivered and they took away the old sofa and loveseat  for a very small fee. We purchased this dre
