The Lily Pad Cottage ~ At The Picket Fence Parade of Homes

We are so honored to have another amazing blogging friend here today for At The Picket Fence Parade of Homes! We adore Kelly, from The Lily Pad Cottage, and her beautiful sense of style and decor…we know you will too! 

Hi all, I’m Kelly and I’m a stay at home mom to my 2 adorable kiddos. In my spare time I blog over at The Lily Pad Cottage about all things creative.  I’m so excited so share our home with you today!

 We were so blessed in 2010 to design and build our cozy lake house on the same lake here in Michigan that I spent all my summers growing up as a little girl.  We’ve made a lot of changes in the last 3 years and I love to drive my husband crazy painting and redecorating.  Come on in!

//LIVING ROOM//

This sunny room looks out over the lake and has one of the best views in the house, and yes we are a little nuts having white couches with kids.

//KITCHEN//

I love to cook up new recipes in my white kitchen and my open shelving keeps everything within easy reach.

//DINING AREA//

//MUDROOM//

This room keeps us organized all year long – mittens and boots in the winter and towels and sunscreen in the summer.

//MASTER BEDROOM//

The master bedroom is currently undergoing a little makeover, but the soothing gray walls are definitely sticking around.

//MASTER BATH//

My bathtub is by far my favorite thing in our whole house, it is my escape after a long day!

//PLAYROOM//

This is where all the craziness happens, from legos to barbies and back again – this room has seen it all!

//KIDS ROOMS//

I had a great time designing my kids rooms to suit their little personalities.

//OUR BACKYARD//

The absolute best part of our house is having this view right in our backyard!  We love splashing in the lake with our kids and I’m so thankful they get to grow up in a place that I have so many fond memories of as a child.

Thanks so much for visiting today!  Stop by and see me sometime at The Lily Pad Cottage or you can find me on Facebook too.

We hope you enjoyed Kelly’s beautiful home as much as we did! We invited you to visit Kelly at her fabulous blog and take a peek at some of her fabulous Christmas Inspiration like her DIY Holiday Sweater Pillow  and her gorgeous Woodsy Christmas Tree from last year!  See you back here next week for another At The Picket Fence Parade Home!
