Tiny Guest Cottage REVEAL

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

Visit www.birchliving.com/farmhouse to get $400 off your Birch mattress plus two free pillows! We had our first guest, and she said she has never slept on a comfier mattress!

[@catholicguitarplayer4202]

We just ordered our mattress and used your code! Can’t wait to get it! -Jenny

[@donitajackson457]

If you did plan on having paying guests, you could provide a "picnic basket breakfast " delivered to the cottage door in the morning. Filled with homemade goodies, like your sourdough English muffins, some butter and preserves, yogurt and granola, juice and water in a beautiful glass decanter. So many options. Just a simple lovely basket, and just shoot them a text when it's delivered and they can enjoy it and put the basket back out on the porch when finished and go about their day exploring your area with happy bellies.

[@Jacline685]

Great idea. My main motivation to stay would be to be able to try Lisa's amazing food!

[@idaosbornfrandsen7162]

Maybe there could be a half-private place to sit outside, too?

[@bettychilds5835]

Yes!! They do this at The Lost Kitchen cabins in Maine!!

[@melanieb2132]

I think it would be a good "get away" "staycation" for you and your husband if you have an anniversary, you can separate from the kids for a night if you have a sitter for the kids in the house.

[@OldWorldHome]

What a bright and beautiful retreat! I love how you maximized the kitchenette! Lisa I was so surprised to hear you mention our mantle, but I have to say when I first saw yours I thought, that looks familiar ☺️ Yours looks so perfect on the stone! I also listened to your podcast with Sincerely Marie and I highly suggest you check out Jenny Steffens Hobick for the most gorgeous block print pillows. She releases new collections seasonally 💛

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

I'll have to check her stuff out!

[@jennylhenry78]

"Our Little Blue Cottage on Boone" would have been a super cute name! Everything turned out so beautifully! 👌🏻😍

[@helloguineapigs]

You've done a fantastic job, very cosy! If it was me I think I would have not had the arm chairs to make way for more of a kitchen/dining set up downstairs with a small sink and a small wooden table and couple of dining chairs ( which could double up as a school work/crafting area for the kids). The reason I say that is because you can always read/watch programmes from a laptop in bed.

“It starts as a dream. Add faith, and it becomes a belief. Add action, and it becomes a part of life. Add perseverance, and it becomes a goal in sight. Add patience and time, and it ends with a dream come true.” -Doe Zantamata It is absolutely STUNNING!!! Well done Lisa, you should be so proud! Thank you for sharing and taking us all on this incredible journey!

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

thank you so much!

[@gracerajah8972]

Agreed !

[@debiabood1741]

You definitely have the gift of hospitality. Every inch of this cottage screams comfort and welcoming. You thought of everything.

[@arlenecoury9976]

Gosh, Lisa! Your cottage is absolutely perfect! These are my favorite types of videos from your channel You aways do such a terrific job and I admire your talent and knack for decorating!

[@ruthmiller5588]

Perhaps you can put a two panel louvered door on your cottage bathroom. The are narrow and fold to whatever side of the door frame you choose. It all depends on which side you put the hinges for the door. I think wood louvered doors are attractive and fancy looking. Your cottage is adorable. I can see your guests enjoying sleeping out there.

[@marthamatteson5280]

Bravo! Don’t we all dream of a little “playhouse” that doesn’t have to be as functional as our real home? You did an excellent job on this little fairy cottage, and your girls will practice being “grownups” here. It would be a fun place for a sleepover some day.

[@meh5069]

I love how comment. So true!

[@suzettejennings6600]

I love your cottage. It is just adorable. You have such a beautiful family and I can just picture your girls using the cottage as a little retreat.

[@thecoopers6636]

How about not add the tv, but have a deck of cards available, fun and quick board games and some other things like that which cause you to really enjoy your time without the need of a distraction. 😉 The little blue cottage turned out beautifully. Congrats!

[@TheLatinaNextDoor]

I totally thought of Hilary's mantel when you started talking about your fireplace and then you mentioned it! LOL! Too funny! I think you did a great job on everything Lisa! It's so cozy and sweet and you did such an amazing job making it light and inviting!

[@Sbannmarie]

Hilary?

[@TheLatinaNextDoor]

@@Sbannmarie Hilary from Old World Home

[@SarahAbplanalp]

Beautiful! I bet as your kids get older and want more privacy as well I can imagine them loving that space to get away even more. So many possibilities with this cozy cottage!

[@sherrydaut4910]

Beautiful! This would be my "timeout" space! Every parent needs one of these. Oh, the books I could read here. 🥰

[@ozarkview928]

I’d be bad all the time so I could hang out in the cottage 😉

[@storytimewithabi]

So true!

[@kathleengallagher2659]

I picture myself reading in one of the chairs!

[@angelabacker1177]

Your cottage is lovely, however I think an accordion door would be a better, more private option for the bathroom. I would also be very cautious about lighting the fire without moving the oversized chairs. It looks like your kids are already enjoying this delightful new space!

[@supriyasumanth]

Beautiful cottage! You can attach a pull-out accordion mirror at the tiny sink.

[@Sally-nse2]

I was just thinking the same thing👍

[@debbiefromillinois532]

Yes! I wear contacts, I little mirror by the sink would be so helpful.

[@lindamele5005]

Oh my Lisa, you made such a charming, homey and lovely cottage home for any lucky guests that will get to stay there. You did such a nice video on it as well so thank you for sharing!🥰

[@janemccowan2655]

Hi Lisa, love the cottage. You could put a piece of mirror on the back of the towel rack above the sink. It would be just enough to see what you needed to.

[@An-Su18]

I was wondering about the same thing. I like a mirror above the sink to help when i put in contact lenses . Men who wet shave would welcome an over sink mirror too.

[@homemakingwithmarissa]

What a beautiful space! The cottage seems so thoughtfully curated.

[@jamieowens7623]

Lisa, I am so enjoying watching your channel and learning so much! My husband and I love staying in places like this. Last year, we had the opportunity to enjoy 3 nights on a farm in Mulberry, TN which was owned by Jack Daniels' brother. We stayed in a tiny cottage which was the former grain house which was set up very much like yours. The owners would bring breakfast on a tray in the morning, and we spent our days happily exploring the property and visiting the animals.

[@donotneedtoknow7541]

What a wonderful concept. A guest house makes hospitality so much easier. At the drop of a hat, you can say, "Yes! Come stay!" And you don't have to do a major shuffle. And now that the world knows you have a comfy guest bed, I'm sure your guest list will be filling up!

[@jaimejewell9686]

with your guest book you should add a blank journal. its very cool to have people write stories of there stay there. we do that for our family cottage on our lake

[@DaveeKilian]

I hear you with being so excited about getting a run down place into a functioning and beautiful guest space! We've been working on a 100 year old 450 sq ft old workshop turned guest cottage & airbandb. We too are finally to the end stages and I've been sharing my process on my channel along the way too. I may be taking some of your decor ideas and incorporating them into our little cottage;)

[@ivyandroses25]

I have been following this project and I am living this dream with you! Such a magical bonus space! Maybe you could add a mirror inside the towel rack over the bathroom sink (inside that oval cut out) then it could be both plus reflect more light? Also I've seen people put mini tv's inside armoires, is there room in the pie safe for that? Could be cute to tuck it away or just include a tablet for guests to stream on and store it there. I also really love the idea of not having one at all. Seems like the idea of that beautiful space is a quiet place to think and get away. It's charming and delightful. I love it so much. Great job. 😊

[@deborahgideon57]

Looks cozy. Keep your eye out for a nice floor lamp for behind the chair by the fireplace. I can just imagine sitting and reading a book by the fire.

[@georgiasanders5438]

I love this blue little cottage very calming and cozy space! Well done to you and your family for all your hard work!!

[@fourdayhomestead2839]

Lovely little cottage. The simplicity & personal touches make it homey.

[@veraoliveira5059]

Dear Lisa: as always you never stop to surprise me. Your litle cotage is cosy that if I wasn't leaving in the EU, I' ll spend a week in your rb&b. Thank you for being there "with us". Vera

[@ilensantamarina9715]

The guest cottage looks adrable and very cozy.♡🤍♡

[@anniebird248]

I love how the girls are so keen to use it too.

[@joannewilson1306]

That looks like a perfect mum respite cottage! A night away to catch up on reading, go for walks and rest. I'd LOVE to stay there - unfortunately a bit far from me in New Zealand but I'd be there in a heartbeat with a stack of books! It's gorgeous.

[@mmmbopbear2459]

You and hubby can take a vacation to your own guest cottage! So many uses for this adorable space!

[@marvettebarkerthompson455]

The guest book is really a notch about normal...I love it.

[@cinder8290]

Your little cottage is just adorable.

[@elisabethcuningham3526]

In Hawaii these are very common, we call them an Ohana, which basically means ‘mother in law home’. This will come in so handy! Since getting married we’ve moved in with my parents twice, for a few months at a time between leaving our house and moving oversees, and even though we have an amazing relationship with my parents it can be hard having two families living together. If your kids ever need a place to stay during a move like that you’ll be set up perfectly to be able to help them! I love that!

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

How sweet, thank you for sharing that.

[@lindasmith5190]

Glad your vision came true...adorable.

[@heatherinparis]

Hi Lisa....I have been following you almost from the channel beginnings and have to say that this is my favourite of all your make-overs and projects and redos. Not to say that lots of others haven't been wonderful as well but there is an air of whimsy and quaintness here that is just sooooooo BEAUTIFUL

[@elizabethhealey5609]

The guest cottage , look sou warm cozy and beautiful I love .

[@upcountrycharlottemason]

Lisa, I would like to apply to be a friend or family member. Either one. Please reserve a week in June for me. lol.

[@rachellebrooke4614]

So darling! I just love it! I also love how the children have a heart for hospitality as they watch you serve others!

[@deejenkins598]

The chairs look cozy but they are so big for this space . It is still very nice

[@lindao1327]

Your cottage is so quaint. I love the decor and the hand towel is something I would love!

[@karenstairs8273]

Your cottage is cozy and welcoming

[@tracybowers8055]

This was lovely ☺️ anyone who stays there will enjoy it.

[@annchee1329]

A very adorable cottage/Air B & B - esp white on white and Blue - also my favorite. Perfect aesthetics .

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@susantaylor8507]

We stayed at a place and had a basket of snacks and muffins homemade bath soap and lotion that's a great idea

[@wandagordon6453]

Absolutely beautiful! Love a claw foot tub 🥰. I agree with your daughter, it’s perfect for crafting. I could sit in front of that window and crochet and sew all day long. ❤️ Take care and God bless y’all.

[@lesleythompson1824]

I love your guest cottage! It’s decorated simple but beautiful. I would definitely stay there. 🙂

[@meh5069]

Such a beautiful place Lisa. I would be thrilled to just have a cup of coffee in this beautiful little blue cottage 💕

[@patriciacinea3097]

Lovely and truly compliments your farmhouse.

[@Imjetta7]

What a delightful spot! This is wonderful!

[@bluesky7226]

It is a very sweet little space! Very welcoming! 💝

[@caroleprisk5068]

I think it's perfect, and finding the finishing touches will be so much fun.

[@sharonholmes2470]

So many possibilities as the years go by 😊

[@Sonya_Barnes_On_Move]

It looks fantastic! A great place for a midday mom escape, too!

[@charlenegates1711]

I would love to come stay in your guest cottage. I was a kindergarten teacher for 33 years and love children. 💕💕💕

[@tmt3253]

Your wood prices so warm and inviting....

[@jdstenersen7685]

Fabulous! Love what you accomplished there!

[@marvettebarkerthompson455]

It's fabulous. Great job Lisa.

[@0Eliza0]

The Coffee Corner is genius!

[@marymateika2449]

Beautiful Lisa! God Bless everyone!

[@nanasewdear]

Your little cottage is absolutely adorable! Everything is so well thought out and beautiful.

[@lorrainedempsey3320]

I love your dream cottage. It's beautiful and very cozy. GOOD JOB 👍 !!!

[@shesacamper1497]

Hi Lisa, Betty here coming over from Hilary's channel and subscribed to yours right away. Love the cottage and am looking forward to watching your videos.

[@tammyleer9268]

Beautifully done, so cute! Very welcoming for guests to stay.

[@deborahshufflebarger5381]

How Darling,sweet and precious. To sit with a book and hear children laughing ,giggling (and arguing) in the background would be soul soothing.

[@lisashafer7616]

Lisa, We LOVE watching. My little almost five year old requests to watch the "cooking Mama" and I am inspired and encouraged in my own mothering and domestic journey as I enjoy your vidoes. Imagine my delight today, watching your cottage reveal, when I saw my cousin Sarah's art was used on the stairway wall! How FUN! God bless you all! From another "Lisa" :)

[@UnfrozenCavewoman]

Oh my goodness, the cottage is delightful! You’ve all done a fantastic job!

[@sarabrunsvold2461]

Love how the cottage turned out!! It’s just beautiful and oh so cozy and comfortable!!!

[@pattibealer]

I would so stay there! What an amazing place! Air BnB would fill that up! Enjoy, and let us know if you are renting it out and where you live!

[@KatherineDeGroot]

This is positively darling! I can't get over how bright and airy it looks while also remaining cozy and inviting. You've done a beautiful job and truly have an eye for incredible design. I think I love the little coffee station best, talk about homey :)

[@lianeabeyta4515]

I call the step you are at now "feathering your nest" . This is the fun part of finding those little treasures, candle sticks, artwork, textiles , that complete your vision. What a beautiful cozy space.

[@christine1373]

The guest cottage is so cozy and pretty!

[@patricahartman9587]

Just stunning Lisa. You, your husband and children are an amazing team. Every single detail is just beautiful.

[@tammyhudson.8072]

Have you had any guests stay yet? It’s so beautiful. I love your channel. Thank you for all that you do. I’m learning allot. I have a great sourdough starter thanks to you. I’m going to make your brioche bread as soon as I get some butter. Can’t wait.

[@michellegomes2030]

That’s my dream too! Great guest house!

[@moonlight.45]

Love your heartwarming cottage!😍 If it wasn't that far I'd definitely come over😊 Greetings from germany

[@nickibeyale152]

Oh my goodness! I love this!! Beautiful! I wish I could like it 82 times! :)

[@Cinderella1125]

Your little blue cottage is beautiful. It is everything that a cottage should be. What a treasure that you have created for your family and friends!

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

Thank you so much!

[@ritahamm1893]

So pretty and quaint!

[@ashleyarnold6518]

Looks great! For the TV, why not invest in something like a Nebula projector. Your guests could use their own accounts to stream content and they could choose the main floor or bedroom to project the movie on a wall, curtain or screen? I've been thinking of getting one my self since I don't want to see a traditional television screen.

[@SarahsAtticOfTreasures]

You did a fantastic job. It's a haven.

[@marciastewart7036]

Your hard work paid off🤗 . It’s gorgeous and homey!

[@sallysmith4492]

Lisa..I am so charmed by this adorable place!!! I know your guests will not want to leave!!!

[@ellaanvari7737]

Beautiful. Would make a great airbnb.

[@lindasegraves6207]

Lisa, I have watched your channel for years and am so proud that you accomplished your goal. Your cottage looks amazing. I also follow Hilary and love her style. I loved it when Dan built their mantle and book cases. He did a beautiful job. Your mantle looks great also. Enjoy your little blue cottage. I agree with another viewer that the cottage would be a nice get-away for you and Luke if you had a babysitter.

[@justjen3216]

What a lovely quaint lil cottage. Its so beautifully decorated..so cozy🤗🤗🤗🥰

[@pia9343]

So lovely, no TV please, not needed in the cute relaxing place.

[@binglet8127]

Absolutely beautiful!

[@lyndamadrid-miller695]

Love the cottage 🏡 makeover.

[@bethw4815]

Lisa! You and hubby worked hard and made a dream come true! I love everything about your little cottage and hope you enjoy this hide-a-way!

[@eileenalholinna5310]

It would be so much fun to stay there! 🥰

[@gs-vg8uf]

Pretty sure that Paige (Farmhouse Vernacular) would have first dibs on staying at the cottage. ;) ;) It looks so lovely. I can see you moving in when the children have taken over the big house. :)

[@lissaharre]

I would definitely rent a place like this on AirBnB. Just a quite retreat where I could read for a weekend. It looks so relaxing.

[@sallymoffit3751]

The Cottage is a success. I especially like the hand towel holder over the sink. A wonderful find!

[@gerigowers8318]

I think it's cozy, beautiful, creative and I'd stay there in a heartbeat. I love to watch Old World Home too.

[@francesphillips8339]

Lisa what a great job its beautiful you are just so talented I am so happy for you I cant wait as time passes how many guests you will have I suspect many !

[@debigriffin1604]

Goodness, I could live there lol! It’s lovely!
