This is what Sproost has to say about:
Cottage ChicWho says that cottages can't be modern and chic? Who says that they have to be floral and cheesy? Not you! You love the carefree spirit that the cottage interior inspires, but you are also serious about your appreciation for modern art and hip treasures. You love old and new alike, and love to highlight them all to expose the uniqueness of each. What better way to show off these treasures than with a light background?
Materials
You have a great sense of humor when it comes to design and even like to make fun of the style itself. Which means that you will throw in a toy boat or a vintage life preserver to keep the mood of the place just like the color: light! The fabrics are natural (cottons and linens) and are light in touch. Much of the furniture is wood or wood framed (the lighter the better, think driftwood!) and as long as it's used sparingly or with modern lines, you even throw in a wicker piece here and there.
Colors
Your true inspiration (whether you know it or not) is the sea... the colors found at your favorite beach: white and light beige of the sand, a variety of blues for the ocean and sky, and greens and pale grays of the sea glass... but the key is white! Your space should feel light and airy and give off the mood one has when at the beach: laid back! The key with Cottage Chic is balance; in one corner there could be a rustic wood table that looks like it could have been found rather than made, but it is offset with a modern vase while another corner is adorned with a modern Lucite piece.
Space Planning
The furniture is comfortable and the layout is cozy. The more it encourages intimate gatherings the better! Just watch out for the red wine spills on the new white sofa! The color throughout is light and airy - and though you love to accessorize with fun colors (the sky's the limit with a white background), the main color seen and felt throughout the house is white or very light versions of colors so that they feel almost white.
I finally got around to making one. It is a bit tedious especially if you are making your stencils like I did. I made the stencils using freezer paper printed from my computer. It is very time consuming, which is why I only did a few game names on mine. I painted the whole canvas Canyon black. The canvas was on sale at at Michael's for 50% off. Once all the letters were cut out and canvas was dry I placed my words where I wanted them and ironed the shiny side of the freezer paper down onto the canvas. After ironing them down they stay put and help keep paint out. I then carefully painted in the stenciled letters. Once it was all dry I removed the stencils and went back over all the letters carefully to touch them up. If you are wondering what in the world Zonk is it's a family game and I just had to add it to the bunch!
If you look closely, you will see all my mistakes like the "l" and the "e" in Scrabble are a little bit higher than the rest. There is too much room between the "o" and the "p" in Monopoly and the "e's" in Yahtzee are off a bit. But who's looking right?? 
I fell in love with this little cottage designed by Alison Warner. I love the vibrant colors and the crispness of each room. I had to share it and keep it for future reference. Enjoy a glimpse of the eye candy! You can click on her name above to view more photos of her gorgeous little cottage......
