Happy Friday, Friends! It’s been a whirlwind of a week over here at White Cottage Farm. Jose and I took our first trip without Cope last weekend (queue the momma tears) and now we are back preparing for another trip (this time with cope, thankfully) that we are leaving for next week. Weeks between trips is always a weird one. We used to do it much more frequently when we were traveling for book signings. However, I’ve really been enjoying a slower lifestyle; pairing down our home to the necessities while we prepare for renovations, and just enjoying life how it is here every day. Of course, I’m truly so grateful that I get the opportunity to travel, but being a natural homebody, I really really enjoy my time in our cozy home as well.
This week seems like it has just flown on by, but I did manage to do some things that cause me to reflect. Here are some of my favorite things from the week:
1.
Next week we’ll be heading to sunny California for our first book signing of the year at the Barnhouse Vintage Market. We are also going to be sitting on a panel with creatives like Maria from Dreamy Whites Atelier, Carly from @carlyjeanlosangeles, Leslie from @my100yearoldhome and my best friend and co-owner of The Found Cottage, Abby I can’t wait to see so many of you and shop some amazing antiques during this fun weekend. For more info on the market, click here [HERE].

This week’s scroll stoppers were all inspiring images featuring library shelves. Check out the 5 images here [HERE].
3.
Check out this week’s collection of Tuesday Treasures here [HERE].

As soon as Valentine’s Day ends, I am raring for spring to begin! Anyone else feel this way? Some of my favorite stores have started to release their spring and easter collections, so I thought this would be the perfect time to do a round up of what I have found before everything sells out for the season. Check out my finds here [HERE].
5.
SURPRISE! I’m in this month’s Country Living Magazine! Country Living approached me back in October to be a part of their new finders keepers series in their magazine and WOW, I’m still so shocked they wanted to include me! I went pickin’ for some antiques locally to share with them and it was such a fun exercise! Check out more of my feature here [HERE]!
6.
Typically I like to keep our home at with cozy utilitarian decor style, but for this week’s splurge or save blog post, I decided to find some whimsical and feminine home decor dupes to share with you all! Check out this week’s dupes here [HERE].
7.
Jose and I took a trip to Nashville last weekend ( our first trip away from Cope…queue the tears!) and I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to share some new clothing items I purchased for the trip! You can see all of my clothing picks and sources here [HERE]!
8.
Last week I sat down with Lana from the Grace Filled Grit Podcast to talk about life at White Cottage Farm, creating a cozy space in social media, and how faith is the core of what I do. Check out the podcast here [HERE]!

Each Friday I like to round up some of my favorite current finds from around the internet. Whether it be clothing, plants, or home decor- I like to share some cozy items with you in hopes that it inspires you or just maybe it is the missing piece to what you were looking for.

What is something good that happened during your week? I would love to hear on Facebook or Instagram. We are really looking forward to getting over to California next week, soaking up some sun, and of course, seeing so many of you! In the mean time, I hope you stay cozy. Thanks for stopping by the blog today and everyday!
