I love a pretty farmhouse. I’m drawn to styles that invite you in and say “welcome home.” Whether farmhouse, cottage, or coastal, these warm, lived-in looks are my favorites right now. I’m especially craving a coastal farmhouse cottage that feels relaxed, personal, and full of natural texture.
Here are 10 things that I’m loving right now —
(thanks Pottery Barn!)
1. Classic white dishes. Love.
Clean, timeless white dinnerware brightens a table and pairs easily with any accessory or centerpiece. It’s the perfect neutral foundation for casual meals or more formal gatherings.
2. Natural twigs and baskets.
Organic materials bring warmth and interest to a room. Twigs, woven baskets, and simple sculptural pieces add texture and a handcrafted feel—think understated accents that make a space feel collected over time.
3. Beautiful shades of glass for display and storage.
Colored and clear glass jars, vases, and bottles add subtle color and light without overwhelming a space. Use them for practical storage or as simple display pieces on shelves and mantels.
4. Quilts.
Quilts offer comfort and nostalgia. Layer them on sofas or beds for cozy pattern and softness that enhances the cottage or farmhouse vibe.
5. Time-worn furniture mixed with natural chairs and rugs.
Mixing weathered, vintage pieces with natural-fiber chairs and rugs creates relaxed contrast. The combination feels authentic and lived-in, grounding a room with character and comfort.
6. Beautiful quality and unique pillows.
Well-made pillows in interesting textures and muted colors add personality without cluttering a space. Choose pillows that feel special—handcrafted details, subtle patterns, and quality fabrics make a difference.
7. Simplicity.
Simple design and uncluttered surfaces keep a home feeling peaceful. A calm palette, edited accessories, and thoughtful placement of objects help create an inviting, restful atmosphere.
8. Lanterns.
Lanterns bring a soft glow and a hint of old-world charm. Grouped on a table or hung in a corner, they add intimate lighting and a cozy, welcoming impression.
9. Pretty & informal dining in light filled rooms.
Casual dining spaces that emphasize natural light and comfortable seating feel inviting and relaxed. Keep table settings approachable and let sunlight be the star to create an airy, cheerful environment.
10. White fluffy towels and old fashioned charm.
Plush white towels feel indulgent and fresh, while vintage touches—an antique mirror, brass hooks, or an old wooden stool—add warmth and personality to bathrooms and bedrooms alike.
