British Inspired Finds

What is more vintage, shabby chic and fabulous than an English cottage? I've been inspired by the upcoming Olympics taking place in England and wanted to blog about British Cottage Style. My jump off point was a photograph of a little cottage with tons of charm (see below).
Cottages


I imagined everything from what textiles would be found in the pillows and blankets in the house to what accessories might be sitting in the kitchen. With this in mind, I've created a list of vintage finds inspired by a cozy English cottage. I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed discovering them.
