Mr. Cottage brought home a large crate that a friend gave him. Poor thing, he thought it would be used to store stuff in outside. 🙂 Well sometimes you have to think outside the box with design and that is what we did here.
The crate gives a rustic look to the slip covered white couches with their ruffled pillows and breaks up the white on white in the room.
I love it paired with this large flower arrangement that Mr. Cottage bought us on Valentines Day.
Here we have it with simple 1/2 Gallon Mason Jars
filled with sand and candles and a small footed glass bowl with sand, shells, and a candle.
The pillows are covered with a blue and white striped pillow slip (tutorial here) that give it a simple nautical look that is understated.
I love these simple candles. They make me long to walk by the shore with the sand between my toes
