The Original Wood Grain Cottage

Take the home tour of the original Wood Grain Cottage… the house that started the blog and my passion for interior design and DIY projects. My life went through a big change, and we sold this home in 2018. Take the tour below, and shop the house!

You can also browse our DIY Project Gallery, which has all the projects we did to make this house what it was.

      Hi Lyzette! Thank you for your nice comment! Which curtains do you like?

      The white curtains in the living room and master bedroom are from IKEA- http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/00120979/?query=merete#/40111987. I talked about them here: http://brightlyinspired.com/2012/10/25/living-room-curtains/ and here: http://brightlyinspired.com/2012/09/26/master-bedroom-curtains/.

      I made the curtains in the breakfast nook. You can find out about them here: http://brightlyinspired.com/2012/09/10/breakfast-nook-curtains/.

      I hope that helps! 🙂

    Hi Shayna! I’m a new follower, just stumbled upon your blog tonight actually. I have to say that I just LOVE all of your decor, posts, pics, tutorials, etc. You have such a keen eye for decorating and making your home so warm. I also have to say, I just LOVE the planked wall tutorial. My husband and I (more me), have been thinking of doing just that to one of our walls in our living room. Thank you for your awesome tips and pictures along the way. I will certainly be back 🙂 Michelle

I was wondering if you could email me more photos of your laundry to give me more ideas. So far, I like yours the best. I have a 9×6 area to design and get everything shoved into, and only about another week to get it figured out. Looking forward to some additional photos if you could please. Thanks, Mandy

    Hi. I love your home! Like you I am in the process of going from colored walls to more light neutrals with pops of color… (I guess I am just growing up), but I was thinking of doing my living room in the Tranquility color. Can you tell me what it leans more toward (blueish, greenish, or grayish) and what it would resemble more in a room with very little natural light? I hope that made sense. ONce again, love your home!

    • Shayna says

      July 28, 2014 at 3:50 PM

      THANK YOU so much, Sarah! Tranquility is a beautiful color, even if I am getting ready to paint over it! 😉
      In our dining room lighting, it tends to lean more towards gray, which is lovely. Early morning it is a brighter blue and I haven’t found it to be very green. It really is a lovely color! I’d suggest painting a small sample in your living room since it does change with the light.
      I hope that helps! 😀

Did you just do a generic, builder’s grade home to keep costs low and then add your personal touches? In the process of starting our build, and I’m wondering if all my custom ideas are gonna blow the budget……

      Thank you so much, Abby! We did build our home. I wouldn’t call it a generic, builder grade house because we did pick and customize our floorplan, plus add in a bunch of higher end touches. However, our budget didn’t really allow a bunch of custom ideas, so that’s what we’ve been busy adding over these last few years. It’s been really fun! 🙂
