Coastal Living served up major eye candy in their latest issue with this darling Bald Head Island, North Carolina beach cottage belonging to Fred and Tiffany McWhorter, photographed here by Tria Giovan! Buying the home was a dream come true for the couple, who had to renovate (and use a lot of white paint!) to get things looking this dreamy! Fred is a home remodeler, and Tiffany a home decor shop owner, so you know they put a lot of love in this project! I love all of the blue/green accents and beachy touches throughout! The style was actually all inspired by the stunning glass-and-seashell chandelier custom made by North Carolina artist Louise Gaskill. Just beautiful! Read more about the home over here, watch a neat video tour with dramatic before and after photos here, and visit Tiffany’s coastal decor store Room Service!

WOW! These photos make me want to paint my round dining room table white, buy a white quilt and white sofa and then add all of my turquoise collections!
Beautiful rooms!
These pictures make us want to go to the beach! So in love with the white and turquoise contrast!
So many ideas from this one blog post! Love the architectural piece as a headboard, the headboard that was apparently made from an old door, the whimsical seahorse made from twigs (I assume), the post office painting, and the old corbels under the island overhang.
major eye candy indeed. i can't get enough of this place. thanks for sharing! hope you're feeling great, erin!
OMG! I've found turquoise heaven. You can bet I'll be visiting your blog often.

I knew that I could find this house on your blog! Loved the article in Coastal Living, and actually was inspired to re-add those pretty lamps back to our site after seeing them displayed in this pretty cottage living/dining room.

I love the paisley quilt shown in the master bedroom but can't figure out where to buy it. It isn't listed in the sources list in the magazine. Any ideas? Appreciate the help!
I MUST HAVE that blue quilt in the bedroom! Any idea where it came from?? It's not in the source section of the magazine!! Thanks!
I love that quilt too…and have looked everywhere I can think of for it with no luck! I'll report back if I find it!

Could you tell me who the artist is for the Post Office Painting?

I need the quilt in the bedroom!!! Are there any brands or labels on it that might hint at where it’s from?!?
Lovely, I like tall beds, they look so comfortable.
