Editor’s Letter

Opener

Gathering Place • Nestled within the mountaintop haven of Monteagle Assembly in Tennessee, where families have summered together for generations, a charming Victorian cottage offers the perfect setting for visiting with friends on the porch.

A Blissful Retreat • As the cottage is your refuge, the bedroom should be your sanctuary—a veritable cocoon of comfort and soul-warming style. Objects and colors that speak to you evoke a feeling of well-being and bring a sense of calm and coziness to your most private and intimate spaces. By introducing elements from nature, this cottage-style bedroom exudes an unmistakable tranquility—much like a hidden garden respite or a secluded lakeside retreat.

Enchanted by Toleware • The collection of Lidy Baars, antiques dealer and proprietor of French Garden House, delights both decorators and collectors.

Passionate Linen Pursuits • Esteemed for both their beauty and function, embroidered textiles impart a gracious sense of welcome to interiors. The joy of collecting springs from acquiring magnificent but discarded linens and restoring their purpose as beloved home elements for use and display.

Timeless Displays • Cherished objects infuse a home with personality, introducing guests to the pastimes, pursuits, and passions of those...
