Happy July 1st. I am excited to share some news with all of you. My Home is the July Cottage Of The Month http://theoldpaintedcottage.com/pages/cottagemonth_enter.htm
I, like a lot of you wait anxiously each month for Jennifer to post the next cottage of the month. I have been doing this for over 8 years since Jennifer put her beautiful, creative vision into the works. I was always so excited to see the beautiful homes and all the yummy inspiration. So to actually be the COTM is so exciting and I am so honored and thrilled.
It has been like Christmas in July to have this honor. Please take a moment if you have not already been awaiting the new COTM :) and check it out. http://theoldpaintedcottage.com/pages/cotm.htm
Thank you Jennifer for this honor and for your original concept of the Cottage of the Month. Your vision has brought so much inspiration and beauty to all of us. Thank You for your hard work to find the right homes and to post them each month.
- I am deeply honored to be included with the previous COTM's. A heart felt thank you.
I would also like to thank Stacey Remiker from Cottage Industry http://cottageindustryinterior.com/ for taking the beautiful pictures of my home.

Hi Pam,
DeleteThanks so very much. I was thrilled when Jennifer asked me to be the July COTM. I have been following the COTM for many years and loved seeing all the new homes each month and to be one is exciting for me. Thanks for your sweet comments. I am writing on the blog since you are a no reply comment blogger. Hope you will see this.
Kris
Congratulations! We are all blessed by your creative talents and willingness to share hour beautiful home with us! I am so happy for you!
ReplyDeleteKris....what can I say except....It's about time!! Your home is so beautiful, You can tell you put your heart and soul into it! Every room is as beautiful as the next....but my favorite is the spare guest room (the one with the metal gate)...I have an oversized one like that above my Master bed!) You have out done yourself....plus your yard is gorgeous!! I can't wait to see what you do with the "man cave"! You and your husband are a beautiful couple! Congratulations and Blessings~~~Roxie

ReplyDeleteI am so happy for you and for others who will get to see your lovely home. I had forgotten to check for the July house - I usually am there right on the dot on July 1.
ReplyDeleteJennifer has a booth at my favorite local antique shop. I am heading there tomorrow to buy a vintage window I saw when we were on a bike ride. I obviously couldn't carry it home on my bike.
I just checked out The Old Painted Cottage - you did a great job with your photos. Since I have seen most of your rooms at different times on your blog, my favorite was the photo of the two of you.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!
