Hi friends
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend.
My family and I spent the weekend organizing and packing..
Yes that is right..PACKING!
We love our 1930s cottage but an amazing opportunity has come our way to keep our cottage as a rental property and move to a beautiful area with an amazing view of the sound and quiet neighborhood.
BUT..the house doesn't have the charming glass doorknobs, arches,original builti ins,white picket fences,etc.
It is a 1960s style home that is need of some charm.
BUT..then again the view of the sound is AMAZING!
I will be sure to share photos soon and before and afters of our new place.
I will miss my cottage but it's time for a change and my family and I are excited about it.
Plus some family friends will be renting our cottage so I know it will be in good hands.
I will be back soon..just alot of packing still to do.
Have a great week!
xoxo

Hi Rachel~
This sounds like such a wonderful opportunity for you and your family! I am so happy for you! :) I imagine you are indeed very busy packing! That is a lot of work! Oh, and a funny thing is, I am a Craigslist addict and have actually run across some of your items for sale! Very cute things for sure! :)
Again, I'm so excited for you! I hope you have a good night! :)
Blessings and hugs,
Jenni
Sounds really exciting,but to leave the lovely cottage :( I am sure will turn the 60;s one into a beauty anyway though. xx
Wow! How exciting! I am glad that you are keeping the cottage and renting it out. That way, it's still yours and you can always move back in should you want to. Meanwhile, a new house to play with and a beautiful water view? Can't beat that! Have fun with this new adventure and don't forget to keep us posted! Hugs, Leena
Beautiful house. Love it! Congrats to you on your win from Dear Lillie today!
BEAUTIFUL pictures of your home - I'm sure that your new home will be just as spectacular! x
Lovely post! And adorable etsy by the way!

How exciting!
Looking forward to you taking us along as you decorate your new nest!
I just came across you blog and will have to follow so I can see what you do with a 60s place after a 30s charmer. They don't build them like they used to! Our cottage is 1927.
I'm so excited for you! How wonderful to have a view of the sound! I hope you love your new home and that you settle in quickly and your move goes smoothly. BTW: Love that first photo SO MUCH!!!
Still can't believe you are leaving your charming little cottage ~ but i can't wait to see what you do with your new place and the transformation you and your husband will do to it with your vision! What an exciting new journey that awaits you (& the rest of us)! xoox
Oh my gosh, I'm so excited for you! I can't wait to see how you give your new place the magic touch...I know it's going to look beautiful. I hope you have a good weekend :)
congratulations Rachel. My mom and stepdad have views of the sound and there is nothing quite like it. I am excited to see pics when you are ready!

How exciting, Rachel!
How fun that would be to decorate a new/old home.
I am sure it will be beautiful once you finish putting your wonderful things in place.
Enjoy your weekend.
xxoo
Congratulations, Rachel! I am looking forward to seeing your new place and all the magical touches you make to create your wonderful new home. And you will love having that magnificent view! I'm also glad you have friends who are moving to your lovely cottage and will take good care of it for you.
Have a fabulous weekend.
