Cape Cod… by boat

Hello Friends! I hope everyone had a safe and happy Halloween!

October flew by and November seems to have appeared much quicker than I anticipated.  October is one of my favorite times to head up to New England because you can really see and feel the change of season.  I just got back from a trip home to Cape Cod, Massachusetts where the leaves are changing, there is a crisp chill in the air, yet it still feels wonderful to be outside.  I was lucky enough to go out with my family on a final boat ride for the season and thought I would share some of the amazing houses off of Chatham.















These amazing little cottages are only accessible by boat…..


I love the rope handrail and granite steps down to the waters edge….

I would be quite content with the boat house….

I hope you fancied a snippet of my home! Happy Fall!

Enjoy your day!

Soft Spot for Skylights….

Hey Friends! Did you enjoy your weekend?

Growing up my favorite element in my bedroom was my skylight.  It was unique and I loved how the morning light would filter through.  Ever since then, I have had a soft spot for skylights and feel like they are an architectural element that is often overlooked.  Of course they are a functional element that adds natural light to a potential dark space, but they can also be the perfect detail to an otherwise lack luster space creating an unforgettable environment.
