The Comfortable Cottage is dedicated to the love of Handcrafting & Design.
We want to present Cottage Styles of today and yesterday, through the Handcrafting Designs & techniques that related to their genre and defined them in the past and in the present.
Let's call them 'Crafty Cottage Styles' & 'Crafty Cottage Designs and introduce them through Handcrafting Designs & techniques that befit their character.
The Comfortable Cottage itself, is the quintessential small house that evokes a magical curiosity; exciting our spirit with a warmth and charm that stimulates creativity.
It can be a cottage you live in or work in and it is, if you are lucky enough to be crafting in one, a place of refuge that is filled with handcrafted items both decorative and useful.
A cottage that is simple and life enhancing when designed in your own unique style.
Follow us...from our backyard 'Comfortable Cottage of Handcrafting and Design'......on a wonderful journey of imagination, creativity, handcrafting, design and much more!!...
We'll share our designs and techniques that we've applied to our own lives in our own homes and invite you to share your own designs, handcrafted items and ideas with us.
This is it!...our little crafting cottage, the one that also leads you home while surfing our website...where much of our crafting ideas begin and most of our crafting is done.
Home to some wonderful handcrafting, design and decorating ideas!
Down through time the basic shack evolved to a more liveable, modest abode consisting of one or two rooms; a hearth and just a few windows.
Not much decorating to do here, life was simple and so was the style of the comfortable cottage and what it was fashioned out of. With a serious lack of materials on hand the imaginative, creative mind blossomed.
Usually built from nature's bounty, such as thatch and mud, a small house of yesteryear could still be made quite comfortable.
Crafting by hand became an integral part of life; everything from tools to toys were handmade and people created useful items as they became necessary.
Then through their efforts and the wages of time, the cottage became a thing of dreams, steeped in history.
