"The Soulful Cottage" by Fifi O'Neill
With spring on the way, I've been adding more rose decor at my house, and for inspiration, I ordered a copy of Fifi O'Neill's The Soulful Cottage. I've seen her work in lots of books and magazines over the years, and I've always loved her French-Chic-meets-Shabby Chic sensibility.
It's funny how one simple photo can inspire an idea. I have never accessorized a chair with a tea pitcher, but why not? I probably wouldn't use my most-treasured piece, but yes, I would give this a whirl.
My eyes naturally went straight to the pretty rose glasses in this photo because I have some just like them!
And all the roses in this charming decor? I'm here for it. I should also mention that when magazines are going for $14.99 these days, it's not a hard decision to buy a hardback book for $20, especially one as lovely as The Soulful Cottage, and I'll bet some of you would enjoy it too!
Enjoy your roses as well as this lovely book full of inspiration!
ReplyDeleteVery nice photos in that book! I do like the rose-covered fabric in the pillows and curtains. I've always liked fabric with roses on it.
ReplyDeleteI too have enjoyed Fifi O’Neills pieces over the years in various magazines. I shall have to look up this book, thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the recommendation! That sofa looks so cozy! Best, Virginia
