Let’s take a trip down a country road near Round Top, Texas. This lovely home belongs to my dear friend Lisa. She is sister to Leslie, who is such a sweetheart. Leslie owns a charming chapel that I shared on my blog a long time ago. CLICK HERE.
UPDATE: Sadly Lisa passed away recently, but I thought it would be a nice way to honor her, by showing her farmhouse again. She used to rent it out, but I’ve removed that information, since I don’t think it’s available to rent any more.
This is a corner of the kitchen area. Just look at that fabulous paint on the walls and the see-through slipcovers!
Here’s the front of her house. I love that metal roof, don’t you? I love that color on the front doors.
This ‘Blue Moon’ sign is so chippy and full of fun.
The kitchen is full of open shelving. I see Franciscan Desert Rose dishes, I have those too! I wrote about them in one of my very first blog posts HERE. I love the soft, white curtains above the sink. White tile on the counters and beadboard on the backsplash make for a super charming farmhouse look on a budget.
This relaxing room looks so inviting. I love the chandy, the mirror, well everything really.
Of course a table on the porch is a must around here. She even has vintage table cloths.
That’s the view from the front porch. It’s a pretty quiet road.
What a great idea to add a wall of mirrors to a small bathroom! And check out the chandy.
I love the rustic ceiling and that magnificent armoire. It looks so pretty with the bow.
Just take a look at this bedroom. It looks so peaceful and cozy. Nothing matches, but it doesn’t need to. I love this look.
We miss you sweet Lisa.

Beautiful home but not tiny by real world standards. Most of us live in homes that rare between 800-1200 sq’. For the relative few that live in the mega-mansions I guess this would be considered tiny. To the rest of us, that looks like home.
Karen says
I guess, Hilary, that is right! My apartment would be considered a closet I guess…:) Had a home with about 1200 sq.’ and have no desire to have it back much less a huge one like sometimes are featured in some blogs. The picture of what you see from the front porch made me have old memories–now I would do that again! 🙂

This darling house is as true to the REAL farmhouse as I’ve seen. Being of an olden age, I’ve lived in many of the old ones, back in the 40’s….there wasn’t real decorating back then…just the necessary things to make life as easy as possible…I love this charming and REAL farm house…thanks for sharing it with us.
Kristine Puzel says
The home is indeed charming and inviting – a definite antidote to our rush-around world. But, I have to say my very photo was the shot looking out from the front porch. I could literally feel my blood pressure drop! Calming, soothing, refreshing! Thanks for a great lift to my Saturday morning!!
Susan Thorne says
Love the ‘Blue Moon’ sign….any idea where I could find one like it? The entire house is fabulous?? I want to live there❤️❤️❤️❤️
Anita says
I don’t, but maybe Lisa does.

That is SUCH a lovely area of Texas! But since it’s known for it’s shopping a few select times a year, hubby won’t let me go. 😉 Tee hee! A LOT of people there now and then, but the rest of the time a peaceful place to find what you might have lost. A lovely home! Thank you for sharing !

Oh Anita,
Charm is not a good enough discription for this petite cottage. Its a réal treat ro havé visited you and you sharing this cottage that surely has its own story to tell. What creativeness this home share, and I could so live here. Love the shiplap painted in that pale French blue and white atop! I am sure this home will find a perfect fit in several magazines, prairie style, romantic country to name two of them. I don’t think there is a magazine that would turn this home away for a feature and a shoot that would only capture the essence of how sweetly this cottage lives.
I will keep an eye out for where it appears.
In my last home I layered mirror on my walls to open up the feel of a powered room that bathed like a master bath yet was as small as they come. How big is this home? 2 bedroom and about a 1,000 square ft? It sure does live big at any size.
Thank you for the share,
See you soon and all you are inspiring this beautiful January.
Come visit my blog, I have a few special spaces and Frenchness to share.
Xx

There is a lot to enjoy in this particular blog. What makes it so successful, or to me anyway, is the ease of winch you have presented how anyone can do this. I love the pale pink paint and see through slip covers. It opens light in your mind creating a wonderful airy feeling.
The porch was another favourite. I’ve been in love whit floral tablecloths forever.
Thank you for presenting functional designs accomplisha for everyone.

I’m new to your blog, but can I say that I’ve spent a good portion of my night immersed in all of your photos and ideas. Beautifully done, thank you!
Anita says
Welcome, welcome Colleen! I hope you stick around. It’s just going to get better, since I have something big coming next week.
Tonita says
Sweet farmhouse but far from TINY. I own a tiny house 8′ wide by 18′ long. Now that is TINY. I have a small farmhouse that I purchased 2 years ago, sight unseen and online. It is just 560’square feet. Downsizing from a 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom large home has been wonderful. My little vintage farmhouse is well over100 yrs old and several old timers in the area once lived in it and raised their children in this old farmhouse. And that was back in the days when there was no running water or electricity in here. The only closet was just 23 inches wide until I changed that. I just remolded my bathroom and it is just 42 square feet. But while it is a small (not tiny) home, it is a perfect size for one or two people. I think your friends home is much bigger than tiny. But it is very sweet none the less.
Anita says
Okay you win Tonita! That is one tiny house.
JEANIE says
I am sorry your friend passed away. Your post is a beautiful tribute for her & her family. The little farmhouse showed her love of old things & a talent for decorating. Each room was unique & even the front porch was decorated. I so enjoyed your post. Thank you for sharing.
Anita says
Thanks Jeanie. She is very missed.
