Outdoor Rooms: Secluded Spaces

I spotted this lovely little secluded outdoor room on Choose the Write blog who saw it on Garden Rooms blog…isn’t it pretty? I can’t stop staring at it, I just love it. Such a perfect place for some morning solitude with a cup of tea!

I just got back into town after being away on business with my hubby, but I will be gathering up some more indoor decorating and outdoor room inspiration (including more beach house photos) and rejoining blog world shortly!

    I love looking at the different ways people create their outdoor spaces.
    Lovely plantings in this one too

    This is beautiful. It’s like a “secret garden.”

    Okay, you grab your cup of tea, I’ll get my coffee and we can meet there to discuss all of our decorating dream. Oh, bring along your tear sheets, magazines, and favorite books, of course! ;)

    I love secret gardens. We created one just outside the office window here at home. I need to take some pictures but that would required weeding the entire space first! We installed a round brick patio surrounded by the garden.

    It is lovely, Melissa. We can always use a pleasant distraction.

    I can’t wait to see your pictures, and to hear more about wedding plans.

    That looks so lovely and relaxing. A good place to shut out the world for a bit…(I say as I realize that my son is repeating the same phrase over and over 20 or more times while running around with the dog)…sigh. :)

    It looks so “cool” and about right now for me that would be fabulous- Ca. is having some fire trouble now- along with the “hot” and smokey air.
    Thanks for cooling off my day-
    Glad you had a nice time away. :}
