• Morning views at the cottage. We don’t have much of an entry here but we’ve done a few things to make you feel welcome. There’s the peg rail for hats, a spot for cottage keys, and the market tote where you can grab a towel before you head to the beach. I made a decal for the front door too (swipe to see). I’m not one for word art but decals on doors are kind of my jam. We had three in the old house and one so far in our current house. I love including the date such as “est. 2015”. It reminds me of the passing of time and how many years of happy memories we’ve had in this space. ⏰ Do you have your house name or date displayed anywhere in your home? . . . #RRWildwoodCottage #cottagechic #cottagesandbungalows #cottagehome #thecottagejournal #summerhome #cottageliving #idcoathome #nestandthrive #homewithrue #mydomaine #houseenvy #SMMakeLifeBeautiful #HomeWithRue #HowIHaven #MySMPHome #cljsquad #heyhomehey

  • This small bathroom is impossible to photograph but I needed to share it and get your opinion. I’ve been debating whether to add wallpaper above the wainscot or not. We’ve got a coved ceiling to the right of the sink though which means either I wallpaper 3.5 walls, or wallpaper 4 walls plus the ceiling. What are your thoughts?? 🤔 On another note, from the light to the towel bar to the cafe curtain rod, I furnished this room almost entirely from Amazon. It’s Prime Day and I’ve rounded up my top picks for Home, link in profile, if you’re interested. . . . #RRColonialCharm #mytradhome #myhousebeautiful #makehomeyours #HomeWithRue #HowIHaven #HouseEnvy #MyDomaine #LonnyLiving #MyCovetedHome #HowYouHome #TheNewSouthern #MakeTimeForDesign #CurrentDesignSituation #MySMPHome #CdnBlogSquad #torontodesign #rshome #cljsquad #mybhghome #howihaven #smallbathroom #bathroomdecor #amazonprime #SMmakelifebeautiful #ggathome #theeverygirlathome

  • Do you remember the summer when you were 10? There was probably a lot of bike riding and swimming and board games, of unsupervised adventures with friends, late night games of hide and seek, and staying up way past your bedtime because “it’s summer, Mom!”. 🚲🤸🏻‍♂️🍉🏊🏻‍♀️ I caught this glimpse yesterday of Chloe and her friend, with their faces painted, wanting to eat their lunch away from mom and dad, of moments of laughter mixed with serious pre-teen conversation, and I saw the edge of childhood. I could sense it changing and I want to hold it back. It’s moments like this that mark the passing of time. ⚾️🎣🛴🍔🍦 Summer, you bring the best memories.

  • Should you #DIY or hire a professional? That’s always a good question to consider. We renovated this bathroom almost entirely ourselves and it was one of the hardest projects we’ve ever done. Especially the day we had to rip out this newly tiled wall and do it all over again 😳😭😫. Head to the blog, link in profile, for 3 things to consider before you decide to Do It Yourself. 🛠 Now tell me, what’s one thing you will never DIY? For us, its hanging passage doors. Trying to get those things square is the worst 🚪😂 . . . #RRColonialCharm #mytradhome #myhousebeautiful #makehomeyours #HomeWithRue #HowIHaven #HouseEnvy #MyDomaine #LonnyLiving #MyCovetedHome #HowYouHome #TheNewSouthern #MakeTimeForDesign #CurrentDesignSituation #SimplyStyleYourSpace #MySMPHome #CdnBlogSquad #torontodesign #currenthomeview #inmydomaine #rshome #cljsquad #mybhghome #howihaven #SMmakelifebeautiful #ggathome #theeverygirlathome #shelfie #bathroomstyle

  • Rise and shine. This new bathroom gets the best light and makes it infinitely easier to get going in the morning. ☀️ This room is all about the mix. Mixed metals, a mix of black and white, a mix of round shapes and flat shiny surfaces. 🛀 Okay the Before (swipe to see) had a mix too, though I didn’t find harlequin patterns nearly as appealing. 🧻 I was so glad to get that 1980’s room outta here. Do you have any dated designs still lurking in your home? . . . #RRColonialCharm #mytradhome #prettylittleinteriors #stellarspaces #loveyourhabitat #hometohave #howwedwell #showmeyourstyled #makehomematter #decorcrushing #mycovetedhome #dailydecordetail #nestandthrive #homewithrue #mydomaine #houseenvy #SMMakeLifeBeautiful #HomeWithRue #HowIHaven #MySMPHome #cljsquad #heyhomehey #bathroomsofinstagram #bathroomdecor #projectfrenchbistrobathroom

  • A little red, white, and blue today. 💙❤️ This is Chloe’s bedroom at #RRWildwoodCottage. From the gingham walls to the grain sack pillow cover, it’s got that country vibe. 🛏 I love having the chance to decorate in an entirely different style than our more traditional city house. At home, I’m more preppy trad but there are some coastal elements that creep in. ⚓️ What do you think, should your home decor stick to one style? Or do you prefer to love it all and mix it up? . . . #RRWildwoodCottage #cottagechic #cottagesandbungalows #cottagehome #thecottagejournal #summerhouse #currentdesignsituation #homewithrue #pursuepretty #mypinterest #mytradhome #cottagestyle #moderncountry #fixerupperstyle #bhghome #thedelightofdecor #homesohard #makehomematter #mycovetedhome #countryliving #howwedwell #countrylivingmag #housebeautiful

  • Morning views from this sunny room. This room is the easiest to decorate. Even with no art or furniture, it would still look good. That’s because of the mouldings. 💙 Today on the blog I’m sharing my best trim and moulding ideas and tips. I’ve talked about these on @officialmetrie #MetrieMasters IG stories the past six weeks (see Masters in their highlights) and it’s a topic I can go on and on about. Every room needs moulding, even if it’s just the simplest window casing. 💙 But some rooms just beg for you to go all out. Architraves, crown, chair rail, 7 1/4” deep baseboards. Those are the kind of rooms that make me swoon. Swipe for the Before and see what a difference mouldings make. . . . #RRColonialCharm #mytradhome #interiorfinishes #moulding #prettylittleinteriors #stellarspaces #loveyourhabitat #hometohave #howwedwell #showmeyourstyled #makehomematter #decorcrushing #mycovetedhome #dailydecordetail #nestandthrive #homewithrue #mydomaine #houseenvy #SMMakeLifeBeautiful #HomeWithRue #HowIHaven #MySMPHome #cljsquad #heyhomehey

The rest of the time, she’ll be at Camp Mom, ha! 😂 I’m planning lots of arts and crafts time and I think we’ll pull out the @behrpaint Chalk Decorative Paint again to revamp some vintage pieces we have at the cottage.
