Most of the cottages you were showing were actually much larger and more grand than typical.
Many, including the gardens, are more appropriate for a manor than a cottage.
I truly live in my dream house. Between two lakes, in the woods, log home with a stone foundation. Grateful every day.
And we need to know this? Why?
You are blessed.
Jealous! @@brendagouws659
Fortunate!
Sounds lovely
Loved this, love learning. My style has been an eclectic one. I live in an urban (hood) area, low income, but love my home. I thrift and find that there are so many beautiful things to be found for your home. I try to teach this to my ladies from church. You do not need a lot of money to have a clean, well curated, elegant home!
Has anyone else noticed that the reflection of the fan in the mirror, looks like an arrow pointing to Valentina?
Not until you mentioned it but now that's all I can see 😂
Yes 🙌🏻
Pat Ross had a book in the ‘80s called Formal Country. That has always been my style. I am a degreed interior designer but retired now.
That's awesome! I wish the book was still available, it would be inspiring to see it.
@@HouseofValentinathe original copy is available to purchase secondhand on used books sites like ThriftBooks
Loved!!
I also love French country style!!
Can you say something about?
You are terrific!!!
@@Dirceria Look at Charles Faudrees books. He was the master of French Country design
@@HouseofValentinayou can still acquire the original copy secondhand online
I adore the elegant cottage style and how it evolves over time while staying timeless.
Would you talk about how modern design can be incorporated in more traditional and timeless features and pieces? I struggle with the ultra modern remodeled homes lacking soul and character, and I'm hungry for more inspiration.
Me, I think of my home and homes throughout my lifetime…
You can have a Sophisticated Cottage home no matter where your home is located.
I love this style it’s very liveable without the shabby chic …
This is very interesting as cottages are very different in the UK, the last word we'd use to describe your house is 'cottage'! Most of the houses in the photos wouldn't be classed as cottages over here either. Perhaps it's down to size as houses in the States are usually much bigger. Another enjoyable video x
I agree, nothing about their home is cottage. It's lovely, but it ain't a "cottage" home.
We live in Maine. Coastal cottage here is becoming less rustic, a little more sophisticated, but a black and white home with soaring ceilings is certainly not the vibe here. Neither is "cottage core", for the most part. Way too feminine. Valentina and Jack always make me want to pay attention to what's out there, though. I like them a lot.
Agree! I was really surprised when she called it a cottage. Cottages tend to have smaller rooms, not open-plan, and low/average height ceilings.
A cottage? Not what most people picture in their minds.
She’s an Interior designer she knows what she’s talking about! @JoR00ke
This is how I've been decorating my house for years. I don't care for a fussy house , don't care for modern. I like warm muted colors. That being said , everyone has different styles , thank goodness for that.
What sold me on my current home was the floor to ceiling stone fireplace. It definitely has the elegant cottage vibe.
Love it Valentina! It's not only elegant but truly calming! I can't wait for spring to arrive and be back in the gardens! The greenery, the floral, the colors, the scents, nature etc! It's the dream.❤
I am 100% a velvet fan, without the cottage style as we leave in a 70´s apartment but with a terrace …. I can’t wait to make our outdoor alive again ❤
LOVE the (elegant) cottage style! Yes more please!
I started doing this idea 3 years ago. I didn't know what this was called till now. I hope to see more of this style.
I live with antiques and new, hand me downs and unrealized treasures of a local antique store.
Infusing some architecture or some chippy painted items made the look come together.
Hi Valentina
Loved your video as always …
I was a few minutes in when I spotted my lovely friend’s living room!!!
I am just getting over surgery but will show her when I next see her, she will be so excited!!!

This is my style. I finally have a name for it, Elegant Cottage. Love it.
*Cottage Style is my Happy Place* . I love the warm neutral palette, structure in textiles and touches of black iron for grounding. There were elements of the "Shabby Chic" vibe that I enjoyed, however, over time, the over-abundance of floral motif decor felt too busy and feminine. When I pulled back on that and added more wood tones, simple lines with a few touches of vintage styling objects, my space felt calm and balanced. I'm not one for patterned textiles other that stipes, window pane or plaid. I prefer to layer with textures, it keeps things interesting without looking flat and one-note.
I went through the same metamorphosis as you did with Shabby Chic pared down cottage is what I like now.
I have a small 25yr old cottage with upstairs in the high pitch roof space with dormer windows and surrounded by paddocks. It is cool having koalas and their bubs visit. Builder basic. I’m just painting the inside white and going with black and neutrals. One day I hope to replace the more expensive stuff like flooring and cabinetry. Love having the white TnG now in the main area. It was orange to match the wood floor and cabinetry. Not doing wallpaper or cottage core. Simple, peaceful and intentional is what I’m going for now I don’t live with a hoarder. ❤
As a gardener I love the elegance and country of this look! ❤
I love this style... 'Old money. Lovingly collected over time' feel. No extremes, not a museum and not a stageset. Thank you, Valentina!
'old money' huh? this is not old money, cracking up
You're always on point - especially with what I am thinking! lololol I think this works with anything - Beach, Lake, Country, Rural Luv it! Plus you guys - Jack, You, Your Mom! Love ya'll. Where I am I am unable to drive right now - too many S Curves & Mountain roads & I'm not 16 anymore lol So I don't get to get out much. Thank you for the virtual vicarious shopping, decorating, outings, & visits. Really feels like I'm with you guys! :)
Elegant Cottage = My Favorite! Thanks for bringing this to us, Valentina!
You are so welcome!
Love this style..more, more, more please!!!
Great video. I would love to have you talk about the "Light and Dark Academia" style. I've gone that route in my home office and absolutely love it.
Hi I really enjoy your videos you and Jack are very beautiful together! Loving the new format!
Fireplace color is amazing the mirror makes the room look even more beautiful,what is the sizes of the two vases you have on the fireplace ❤
❤Ty I love this. 😊 Pulled together nicely and relaxed.
My cottage would be near a beach. Since I live in the middle of the great lakes it may just come true!💃✨😍🌹
At 9:38 minutes, is my favorite view of your home, your perfect coloring! How are you & Jack?!😊 I told my husband that i adore Jack. The look on Keith's face!,
(he wasn't listening to me).😅
My two favorite whites are Simply White by Benjamin Moore, and Creamy by Sherwin Williams.
Oh I’m loving elegant cottage style. You gave me some good ideas for my old 1936 home! Thanks!❤
I absolutely love the elegant cottage. Great video. It really helped me to understand the essence of the look.
This has inspired my so much on how to bring style to our small home in the countryside ❤ thank you so much would love to see more of these videos.
I love this style. What an inspiring video!
Styles that I like are French provincial, minimalist, boho, Victorian, Edwardian, industrial, dark academia and Art Deco. I love the combination of elegant cottage because it ties a lot of these pieces together and you can spin it your own way. Also, black and white is my favorite. 🤍🖤
You spoke of the modern manor style in a previous video I enjoyed. When will you follow up with more information on this one?
Cottage core is just flat out WELCOMING!
We recently downsized into a new build, which was very cookie cutter, but i did my best to make it mine in an elegant euro cottage style… i have some more modern pieces like my sofas and a few other things, but i have thrifted and refinished older pieces, i have some collected vintage pieces as well… i so love it all, especially the artwork which I have always loved classical art in golden frames of all kinds… it just makes me smile…I’m also very blessed to have a crafty husband who has put up beams, made me furniture,and has a great eye for design as well.
Love your channel, you are so endearing to watch…..❤️
Great video! Brown, for sure include warm brown!
You touched on Western Gothic a while back. Would love to expand on this!
Love it I was trying to figure out what my Cottage is and definitely elegant Cottage. Just bought our house and decorating it now thanks for the video!
Love elegant cottage style
I’m so glad to have a name for the way we decorate and design. I don’t relate to cutesy, but everything about our house from the size (2300 sq ft) to the location (10 miles in the country on 13 acres) says elegant cottage. Thank you for putting a name to our design style.
Thank you for creating the elegant cottage mood boards! I’m super excited to look at them!🦋
Grand show of the cottages!
Thanks
Every corner may tell a tory of comfort and refinement. 🥰🥰
Valentina, your channel has really leveled up - loving the new videos your putting out. Thank you
This is such a wonderful style, thanks Valentina ❤
I like the cottage idea too
I think I found my style! My daughter says my style is farmhouse but after watching this I believe I lean more to the cottage side. I remember when shabby chic was in that I liked it even though I didn't have many pieces in my home. It was the flowers that drew me to it. Now I want my flowers to be outside or cut in a vase.
Love that!
Have decorated w velvets for 50 years ...whether they were in or out.
After watching videos of several designers today, I have come to the conclusion the word "trend" must be considered a curse word in your industry. lol Love your channel.
Love the elegant cottage style. For authenticity, it should be a bit eclectic or a least have something unexpected and must have a few vintage or antique elements that add patina and richness.
Loved this!!
Great video!
Yes, please do more elegant cottage ideas. We are in Charleston on vacation. I love walking around the streets taking pictures, getting inspiration from all the beautiful gardens. Can you do more ideas on gallery walls, how to find affordable art work and frames?
We are currently renovating a 150 year old yellow brick farmhouse (litterally) that is a 3 minute drive to Lake Huron. So, we're definitely adding a cottage feel, with beadboard and hubby is very skilled so, building an entertainment unit on living room wall. I LOVE chinoiserie, so will be styling the shelves with that and other grassy textures and some brass. Would love to hear your thoughts on chinoiserie. I think it is most beautiful when balanced with other complimentary things and colours like brass and green and bright white pottery to keep it all interesting.
❤Thanks V. Great ideas 💡
Love the Cottage Style. Can you please do some videos on Modern English Cottage Style? Love your video's! I would love to build a Cottage with stone on it and on acreage with tree's and a creek !
I get a moat around my cottage every time there’s extremely heavy rain for days and that’s when I call it my castle. The creek sounds much better. I hope your dream comes true. ❤
Thank you so much
Loved your video.
I love this idea! What would an elegant cottage kitchen look like?
I can safely say, not mine! 😂
Sears didn't just popularize them, they sold the plans, they also sold "kits" where the lumber was precut with assembly directions.
Would love to see more on your put door garden
I live in a 1907 tudor revival and consider it cottage style. Stone exterior and stone fireplaces make it feel European. Thank you for this segment!
I love your enthusiasm over this sophisticated cottage style! Please do post more about this as I am interested as well.
Thank you so much!
? i’m curious where you got the lamp behind Valentina in the video black sculptured lamp, white shade? never mind , I found it in your ltk app😍😍 Thank you.
Love
Are wood cabinets too trendy if I am looking for a timeless kitchen? I want a modern French countryside vibe.
You really should have your housekeeping service be your video sponsor!! I always wondered why you don’t do that. Your home is clean and beautiful..makes sense to have your house cleaning service sponsor your video..Theyvwould get much business
I love this style! I would be interested to know more about this one. I just wish I could rip my house apart and create a kitchen garden. I want to know moooore!
“You just want to squeeze, it’s so cute” 😅😅😅
Hi Valentina! I would really love to learn more about the English Heritage style. I have a more traditional aesthetic, but would love some tips on keeping it from looking too fussy.
for similar style also check out european modern or lux chalet style😀
So true!
I thought there was an arrow on the wall reflected in the mirror. I finally realized it is half of your ceiling fan.
Ha, that’s funny how things look when you don’t know the room!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Excellent video! I live in a cottage and I like cottagecore but I don't like the tattered messy look. Nor do I like pinks and lavenders. Elegant Cottage is right up my alley! Did you coin that phrase because it is BRILLIANT! Thanks!
So glad there’s another non-fan of pink out there. I’ve grown up believing I was the only one! No pink in my cottage either. 😊
@@fionaschiffl8065 You aren't the only one! 😆 One of my closest friends LOVES it, but it was never my vibe.
Valentina, Love your channel. My hands down favorite type of video you post are the designer changes you make to other people’s homes. I love how you elevate a room or rooms from just okay to stunning with new paint, furniture, drapery, and design that pulls everything together. I’ve learned so much from you! ❤
Hi Valentina, is it finish on your fireplace satin or matte? It's gorgeous btw
It's matte. Thank you!
Beautiful video! I love blending Modern/Classic elements...RH has been my inspiration for years; the cottage style is definitely intriguing & I do love incorporating a softer side as well. Would love to see a classic modern video inspired by RH😍
I love these types of videos when you sum up a style! I always learn something new! Please do more on the elegant cottage! It is my favorite design style!
I really like her brown jacket. Can you tell us where to purchase that at?
It isn't a trend because it requires a person who doesn't CARE what's "on trend", they know what they like, the stuff they've accumulated, or "curated", makes them happy in their home. But "cottage" means different things; I'm in Maine, and our cottages bear no resemblance to an English country " cottage". I don't know of a lot of chintz and cottage-core stuff, either.
I'm just curious to know why you don't have window treatment in your living room? Since it being an important part of design.
My guess is she leans a bit modern. Adding curtains is traditional. She also might want more light.
Pea gravel looks nice BUT it distorys shoes!
I would be really interested in hearing about Spanish style
Can you give us a link to your “ origin story” video, I’d love to see it. Thank you.
I checked the sateen beddong set you mentioned I really love that you can change the colors for each piece if you want that really is handy. I like white sheets and a colorful duvet and you can do this. I know what my Valentine wish list is now 😂❤
That's a great idea!
I like netrual decor with quality furniture with creams & textured fabrics. But I LOVE colorful original art purchased from the actual artist. Dull mass produced art is so lifeless to me. I love art that is not abstract and lets me remember beautiful places. Ikea furniture looks mostly very cheap to me. I love real hardwood floors with quality rugs. Timeless.
Sophisticated that’s V!!! Love it!! Blessings!!
I would love a video about Gothic Glam decor!
Itk
Yes, would love to hear more about Elegant Cottage!
Valentina, everything you touch you turn it into elegance! You’re the epitome of style, could you please do a room tour of your bedroom pls!
I was so excited about watching this video but it was a tiny bit misleading; I think Elegant Cottage Style is so lovely and is actually how I decorate, but you did not show any coordinating photos with real life homes incorporating it. I live in a small brick suburban "Cottage", story & a 1/2, 8 foot ceilings and completely separate rooms. I call my style modern rustic cottage with a twist of french influence lol! You, your home and your channel are a great source of inspiration but a 3 story open concept American laid out home is not a cottage
Haha! Yes! I was thinking the same thing!
Elegant cottage on east coast is Hamptons, right?
I got the Velvet curtains in December that you recommended on Amazon, so do I keep the velvet curtains through Spring/Summer seasons? Do I buy linen curtains for cottage decor for the warmer seasons?
That's what I do. I use velvet in the Fall/winter and cotton or linen in the Spring Summer.
I love velvet pillows but not on furniture. It attracts every piece of lint, dust and pet hair. It’s a maintenance nightmare. Ok for accents
California coastal cottage.... thoughts to bring to new home?
Your home does not reflect cottage to me at all. And I’m not just thinking “country cottage”. But love the descriptions and pictures. Thank you
I think traditional art works much better for cottage. Not modern.
I think you are confusing cottage core with shabby chic. Shabby chic had all the pinks and floral and overly distressed furniture. Cottage core has more earthy colors, thriftEd items and a mix of old and new furniture pieces.
