We
receive many comments and questions about our logo or The Cottage as we refer to
it. It seems to evoke such joy and warm feelings in many people. |

CottagesandGardens™ |
People
always want to know why we scrunched the name together with no spacing between
words. Well, for one reason we believe that in the Traditional Cottage Lifestyle
the Garden is simply an extension of the Cottage and life is lived abundantly in both
places. Being such they must co-exist in harmony to create the ideal Cottage
Life. And we like the way it looks! |
|
The
Cottage |
The
Cottage just seems to project all that is good about a simple, relaxed and loving home
life. We believe this is a life style worth living. A common question is
"Why is the Cottage always changing?". Well, that is really pretty
simple. A home is a 'living thing' therefore is in a constant state of
change. We wanted to make our Cottage symbolic of that, so, it changes too ~ for
seasons, holidays and other reasons. Besides it is fun for us and hopefully you as
well! |
|
The
Trees |
The
trees (when in season) are redbud eucalyptus trees, often used to line streets in
Orange
County, California, including Narcissus Avenue in
Corona
del Mar, California,
the original home of Cottages and Gardens. They are in bloom several times throughout the year. |
|
The
Rose Bush |
The
rose bush (when in season) is currently a Betty Boop Rose. |
|
The
Cottage Road |
The
Cottage Road takes us on our daily journeys of working, learning and experiencing
life. It then delivers us back to the comforts of home where we can share our new
experiences with loved ones, share in theirs and simply find a retreat. |
|
For
Life's Simpler Pleasures™ |
We
believe that when you find or experience that little something from nothing
which makes you feel very good inside, then you have experienced one of life's
simpler pleasures. Such might be a great piece of chocolate, a great gardening bench or
a tip on growing your favorite roses. Whatever it is for you, we hope you find
Life's Simpler Pleasures at
CottagesandGardens. |
