If you guys saw my post yesterday [HERE] you know that it’s an insanely busy week for us here on White Cottage Farm as we are planning for a hug market here in Michigan this weekend. I hope to see a lot of you there! So, today on the blog I’m sharing a blog from this past weekend… ya’ll I’m struggling haha. I HATE the camera.. well, I lied the camera hates me. When Jose is vlogging I’m never ready.. I usually have dirty hair.. no makeup or worn from the day that makes me look tired… or I’m tired. Or I’m just you know… not ready. Ya’ll I freeze up as soon as Jose turns the camera on, but the thing is I really want to get more comfortable, share more, do more videos…. I promise I will get more comfortable, but for now can you still love me even when I’m weird & uncomfortable? I’m an introvert who still loves sharing… it’s a weird place I’m in, but I’m thankful you are here. Ok… so we are vlogging a lot more now & I WOULD love to hear what you want to see in the videos: decorating, farm, home projects, shopping, DIY’s, less me… just kidding don’t make me feel worse about myself. I promise to be more “myself” in the videos & not just a quiet awkward bystander to Jose…. I got this!! Ok… So here is this weeks blog & I hope you like it & I’m so thankful you stopped by the blog today! Thank you for stopping by today & every single day to see what we are up to! Be sure to follow me on Instagram [HERE] to see more videos on my Instagram stories & more behind the scenes of everything we are up to! xx

Hi! I am Liz Marie AKA Liz Marie Blog. I’m a thirty something year old living with my veteran husband on our farm in west Michigan. After spending almost a decade living in North Carolina as Jose served his country & I studied interior design, we are happy to be back in the mitten state working on our fixer upper farmhouse & beginning our journey of farm life.
Your house is absolutely stunning and looks even more beautiful in the vlogs than pics. Personally I would love to see more home styling videos that demonstrate your thought process/editing process. I’m still learning the fine balance of adding complimentary decor and taking away non-complimentary decor. I could learn a lot from you and be inspired at the same time! Thank you.
I would like to see your gorgeous kitchen in action on a vlog or two! Share some of your kitchen/farm procedures, please! I’m struggling with a good cook-compost-garden routine (where the heck should I store it without running out in the rain to throw it in the compost pile?), and where to store fresh eggs so they don’t get broken.
Don’t be so hard on yourself, I loved watching the vlog it was great! Don’t ever try to be someone else, just be you 🙂
I have been watching your vloggs since you started vlogging, but you took a break so I really missed you both, but glad you will be vlogging more now!! I would love to see a little of everything like the farm, decorating, the market, events, flea market shopping, anything you want to share even a trip to Home Depot to get supplies !! Lol!!!
LOVE,
Evelyn C.
Would love to see you during your transformations, your thoughts as to why and how and where you style things. Jose does such a great job with the final product so I am in awe of everything. Love seeing your farm life and I’m still waiting to see your bedroom with curtains and what happened with the guest room upstairs? You have so many projects!!!! Oh and the living room with the new doors! Frankly I just want to see it all!!!!!!!! Love that you change things up! I do the same in my house (when I have time). One can only see a room so many times but when you create a new vignette or move things around… Keeps me coming back for more!
Hi Liz Marie,
I would love to see it ALL, but especially more of your house and YOU! Your house is my dream home and inspiration. When I decorate my house, I always think (and say to my Husband), “WWLMD”… WHAT WOULD LIZ MARIE DO?! Your house is jaw-dropping and you have a gorgeous soul… Beautiful inside and out!
You got this, girl! Keep doing you and I will keep obsessing… PROMISE!
Love,
Ashley Brae
You are darling and just perfect on video. Your house and farm are AMAZING. I would love to see some insight on how to set up the vignettes you do. I struggle so hard core with that!!
I love you and Jose. You are both so honest and sweet. You compliment each other. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE your house and all you do but I really get excited about your animals. Lol. I love those sheep. I love how Grace is so dog like. Take care and God bless you both.
Love your blog! Your farm! Your animals! So fun to watch your vlogs! Your both so talented!
I love your truth and honest nature, your beautiful and you have the best designs in all you do. You and Jose keep showing the love it comes through?️?
I’m loving it all. I agree about the house showing up better in the video. I SO want painted floors but I rent. ?. Just want you to know that I have a couple of my prayer warriors groups praying for you.
