This one is really more of a sit and read garden house. I can see myself there on a warm Spring afternoon.
A lakeside garden house? I’m not sure that qualifies as a real garden house but I like the way it looks, especially at night.
Another house in the woods. This is cute with it’s weathered wood siding and painted trim. Interesting . . . the little people over the doorway.
I love this cottage garden and the vines growing up the porch railings on this little garden house.

Am I right? So elegant and inviting. Keep going, there’s more . . .
I could definitely settle in for a nap here.
Look! They even have garden boots on the porch!
Outside appearances can certainly be deceiving can’t they?
I hope you’ve enjoyed taking a little time to dream with me. I don’t really have a place to build a garden house where I live but I love the idea and I enjoy seeing the special places others have made for themselves. We can all make a special place of beauty wherever we live. It doesn’t have to be grand. It can be as simple as a comfy chair where one can sit and reflect and just be still . . . even if only for a little while.
Where is your special place? I’d love to hear!
Blessings,

The question is, “How many times can we make Pam say, ‘WOW’?”
A LOT!!!! My goodness girl, what a beautiful collection of garden cottages you found!! You’re right about the last one…Deceiving!!
How pretty the outside and inside is!! But, your boots would look much better!!
Thank you for sharing and the time it took to look these up!! Thank you!!
Enjoy the rest of the week!!

Oh man, to have a pretty little garden house like one of those… just so beautiful. And I love your rainboots with the flowers! 🙂
These are the most amazing Garden Houses!! I agree with your best for last choice 🙂 Thanks for coming to our Link Up Party at allthingswithpurpose.com!!
Hi Patti,
What a beautiful dream! I am a ‘gardener’ of sorts and would love to have a beautiful garden house – I’d sleep there. I’d put in a skylight to watch the stars…Sigh. The last one belongs to Sandy Foster of My Shabby Streamside Studio. It was a labour of love for her. Check out the link below. She and I were actually featured in a beautiful book from Norway just before Christmas! I am honoured to even be in the same book with Sandy. She was on the Nate Berkus Show, too, talking about her little house! It is truly swoonworthy…I loved seeing it again! I’ll be back soon. :-)))) Nice to ‘meet’ ya!
Hugs,

I have been dreaming of a garden house or a Potting shed (I think this sounds so “English) I have a bunch posted on my Pintrest page but your last pic is so dreamy! I don’t think I would ever leave this little house!
Hi Patti, oh am I ever dreaming of a garden house! We actually planned on building one this Spring. But then we decided to finish the basement. Garden house will have to wait till next year. I adore so many of these. I have a garden shed pinterest board. I will be adding a few of these. I had seen that last one before. It certainly is amazing! Thanks for sharing with SYC.
hugs,
Jann
p.s. Love your boots!
Loving all these ideas! I would love to have any one of these in my back yard! So fun! Thanks for linking up!
I would love to have a little cottage in the back yard. Maybe it’s leftover little girl in me wanting a playhouse : )
Thanks for these beautiful images.
Ok, can I just have any one of them and a big enough place to put it. Unreal. Thanks for joining Inspire Me. Hugs, Marty
Love all the wonderful inspiration pics, a garden house is on my wish list!!
this is the 2nd time I’ve seen boots used as vases this week…and I like yours just as much! I saw some cute boots in either Joann Fabrics or a craft store awhile back. I was tempted but did not buy. Now I wish that I had as the idea is just so cute to have flowers in them! 🙂
Beautiful little garden houses! I’d love to curl up with a good book and a mug of hot cocoa in one. Not sure how much gardening I’d actually do… 🙂
Thank you for linking up with Much Ado About Monday. We hope to see you again next week!

I have always wanted a “little” cottage in my yard for me to escape. My favorites of all the beautiful ones you shared are the pink house and the house of doors. I hope you get your little garden cottage.
Love the all! You will be one of the features at the Make it Pretty Monday party at The Dedicated House! Hope to see your prettiness again at the bash! Toodles, Kathryn @TheDedicatedHouse
Patti, All of the garden houses are adorable! Thank you for sharing these at the Open House party.
