I love old beach houses. They are timeless and ageless. My birthday is drawing near and I want to be timeless and ageless .
Age is an attitude...so I may be in luck.
I have a positive attitude and an open mind. I work very hard but my work is not work to me...
There is a "better that good" chance that I will be moving soon. I have to go to Colorado next week on business and the following week I will be moving from "A Bohemian Cottage" .
There is change in the air and I am preparing for my next adventure.
I have a bit of sadness as I always do.... . But my next project is just sitting there calling my name....
Back to the blog....
This amazing place is defintely "timeless beach cottage beautiful".
| high ceiling and everything painted the same color |
Sinks in the bedrooms. ...old and beautiful. I wish they still made these. |
The bedrooms all have sinks and the rooms flow into each other |
the sinks only have cold water..back to the basics. |
| this sink is metal and my most favorite. love the base and details |
lots of old "walk through" windows . There was no air conditioning ... Only the magical ocean air swirling around and cooling the rooms. YUMMY YUMMY!!!!!!! |
| 12 foot porches with a view of the Atlantic Ocean |
Note: wide porches are important. Don't let anyone talk you out of your wide porch...and they definitely will try. |
| See the ship on the horizon |
This old raised cottage has air conditioning now and is rented through http://www.tybeecottages.com/
I ran across this photograph of another old Tybee Cottage taken by the most talented and wonderful Richard Leo Johnson.http://www.atlanticarchives.com/ As a photographer he has captured so many of my projects. Once I showed a magazine scout a great cottage I had done, she did not seem very interested but when Richard sent scouting shots that he had taken she wanted it for her magazine. Is he GREAT or what!!
note:
the old sink (cold water only)

That round mirror says it all - I can't even begin to want the sink because I know I'll never see another one like it!
