Historic Texas Cottage
This historic Waxahachie, Texas cottage was built in 1926 with plenty of charm and history. It has been lovingly renovated to meet modern standards while still preserving its unique character. From the inviting front porch to the cozy interior, this cottage is charming.
We renovated the kitchen and restored and updated many of the rooms to improve the flow and livability. Behind the pastel colored drywall was hearty shiplap, so we exposed it in many rooms.
Finally, to finish out this labor of love, I furnished it with refined rustic glam decor and accessorized with interesting pieces that tell a story.
The result is a home we truly LIVE in.
It’s important that decor be beautiful but also practical.With two boys and a puppy, we do not have any other choice, and we love to live here.

This antique piano was only $80 and I loved it, but I had no idea where I’d put it in my house. However, when I went home I couldn’t stop thinking about it. So after two hours I went back down to the square–and it was still there! It was meant to be mine.
