A few weeks back I was a featured guest on blogs.com ~
THANK YOU very much!!
I was to give them my... "TOP 10 list" of Cottage Style Blogs...
On that list is Paula of Castle and Cottage. ((OMGOSH))...if you've been searching for a vintage sign, and your decorating style is either Shabby Chic, French country, Paris Apartment, Cottage style, or Primitives...you will most certainly find it at Castle and Cottage.
This is my sign Paula handpainted for Cherry Hill Cottage.
I LOVE IT Paula!!
I love it because it's handpainted and distressed. It has the feel of a very well loved antique... ; - )
I already have another sign order (Christmas gift) to place!!
Paula is also having her first blog giveaway~
The winner will receive a $40. gift certificate to her etsy shop.
Two easy steps to be entered to win~

..in my blog.com bio...
The writer wrote our cottage home had been featured in Cottage Style magazine and the current issue of Country Victorian. In 2007 a "picture" of our kitchen/kitchen island was featured, ASK THE EXPERTS, What makes a Cottage Kitchen? In the current issue of Country Victorian, 2010 a "picture" of the plate rack w/the red and white plates is featured. That same photo is on my blog banner.
Our cottage home was featured in Country Almanac, 2008.
Just wanted to make that clear...

Love the sign! Maybe I'll have her make one for my Cozy Little House. I'll check her out for sure.

Hi Tina,
Oh yes your "Cherry Hill Cottage" sign is divine. I love Paula's work, I placed an order a while back and received my sign "Guest Cottage" I love mine so much. I will post it soon so you can see it.
Have a wonderful day,
