Use informal wooden floors for your Cottage Decor; leave your floors bare or dress them up a bit with vintage throw rugs.

Keep your Cottage windows light and airy; Use lace for window treatment to create a softer look or pick simple light shades for extra privacy.

Mix & match colors and patterns for your Cottage fabrics; from floral to stripes, checks, and plaids while keeping it in tune with your Cottage theme. Use warm and snugly throws for those chilly evenings.

For an English Cottage feel go with pinks and greens for your floral prints. Try greens, rust, and golden tones for a more rustic style country home. For a Cottage Style home near the beach, soft blues and sandy beiges with lots of white will be perfect.

Use vintage lamps for lighting areas throughout your home; let your light fixtures spread warm light, keeping with the informal, comfortable Cottage Decor.
