Is it just me, or is Texas simply overflowing
with beautiful design talent?
Exhibit A: Holly Matthis.
Designer Holly Matthis may have moved on from
the charming cottage in Brenham, Texas,
you see here (she is creating yet another
beautiful home with her family), but I think it’s
worth savoring a little longer.
I’m including some home decor items that feel
like they may be at home in this cottage.
The affiliate links that follow mean you won’t
pay extra, while I’ll earn a few pennies to support this blog.
Holly Matthis rented this home for a season,
infusing it with style on a budget.
Country Living took note, and
I loved reading the story of
how she stretched her
decor dollars.

For instance, the designer chose to simply
skip a rug under the dining table
(it would have been easy for
her to simply style this space
with a borrowed one
for the magazine shoot, and
no one would be the wiser;
instead, she was honest
about the absence of the rug!).
So much to learn from this smart
creative’s style and forthright,
vulnerable integrity.

Isn’t this a lovely home?

Very pretty ! Can you tell me the paint color that was used in this cottage ?
I’ll have to do some digging…it looks like it could be similar to Benjamin Moore’s Horizon or Classic Gray. Peace to you, Roseanna.
