My Little Sitting Area

Welcome to one of my favorite seating areas in my home, the Brayton Homestead, circa 1796. This spot is located in the center front of the house; with some stretching you can view the Taunton River.

A small space, the top hall landing to be accurate.
My attempt was to create a space to linger or to look out at the water. I think it has
a bit of a French flair, do you?

So I am linking with the beautiful
French Cupboard's
Vintage Inspiration post

here vintage needlepoint on my walls and pillows,
and a bench I created from
salvage pieces..

even the door to a bedroom is adorned with vintage needlepoint, my favorite textile,
and a set of old suitcases just waiting to be needed...


Original shutters from the cellar make a wonderful folding screen
while hooks from my kitchen's pot and pans rack
allow me to rearrange pictures easily, such as my watercolor painting a of a stone cupid statue and of course vintage needlepoint!

and linking with these great blogs:
