Happy Sunday, everyone! I'm so happy to be here as part of How I Found My Style Sundays and follow in the footsteps of so many other stylish bloggers before me! My name's Courtenay and I blog over at The Creek Line House where I share easy-peasy farmhouse decorating and homekeeping tips on a semi-regular basis. |
|
I live with my husband and 2 cute kids in a 114 year old farmhouse that we're slowly (slooooowly) renovating and restoring and trying to live with in the process. It's a dream come true for sure, and one I didn't think I'd be able to live out for many many years, but when the chance came three years ago we sold our townhouse in the city and jumped on it! |
|
So where did I find my style? Do I even have a style? Honestly, I'm not totally sure if I have the right answer to those questions. I know that I have been able to create a home that's in a style that I love, even if that style changes over time. I guess my "style" if you can call it that comes from wanting to keep my home in a style that's appropriate for it being a farmhouse while also getting to play around with all the fun and ever-changing home decor ideas I see all over the place. So I guess "modern farmhouse" would be my style? Does that sound right? |
|
Other than a bit of history, and my surroundings, I find my style inspiration from the same place most of you probably do. Blogs, magazines, obsessively watching decor shows, all that fun stuff. Then I bring the ideas back home, try them out, mess them up, and come up with something entirely different that still somehow seems to work for me! |
|
I don't know if I'll ever be able to say I'm the most stylish blogger out there, but I definitely have lots of fun playing around and trying to make this crazy old house into something for us to enjoy! |
|
Thanks so much to Pamela for having me! I hope you all enjoyed the mini tour and the chat! |

Courtenay thank you so much for stopping by today and sharing your 114 year old farmhouse with us. Talk about a dream come true for sure! I have enjoyed watching you transform it over the past few years. You are truly bringing it back to life! |
Before I sign off I wanted to remind everybody that Monday will be a busy day here at FMFPTY!
