This awesome giveaway is provided by Design in a Bag. Just to introduce Design in a Bag, here's a bit about their services:

"Prêt-à-porter for your kitchen and bath projects, Design In A Bag introduces collections of professionally coordinated and proven kitchen and bath design recipes, offering the expertise, access and eye of an interior designer without the price tag. Unlike other prêt interior design services, Design In A Bag allows you to browse online galleries of coordinated kitchen and bath looks – each carefully designed and crafted by Rebekah Zaveloff, an HGTV contributor and the creative force behind Chicago’s preeminent kitchen and bath interior design firm KitchenLab – and delivers selected complete concepts including cabinet, countertop, tile and paint samples, shopping list and hand-drawn renderings direct to your door. Taking the guesswork out of putting together a cohesive look for your kitchen or bath project, consumers can touch, see and experience the materials in their home, bringing the showroom and interior designer directly to you."

You can search concepts by Modern, Vintage, or Classic styles, and by palette: warm, cool, or neutral. To enter the giveaway - leave a comment below or email me at
ashley[at]decorologyblog[dot]com saying what style or palette you think you'd choose. A winner will be picked via a random draw on Monday the 27th at 5pm EST. You can find out what's included in the bag by reading this page "What's in a Bag."

Here are some great kitchen transformations from Design in a Bag where the bag materials and concept were followed to a 'T'. They are both examples of the "Vintage" style.

Tips to get a "Modern Cottage" look

0
I love these tips from The Inglenook Decor on how to create a modern cottage.

1. Have a neutral back drop. Go for creams, white, beige, gray (like the one shown below), clay, sage & light browns.


2. Choose furniture pieces that are fuss-free. Go for clean lines & comfort. Make it livable & cozy like upholstered furniture whether it's the sofa, dining chairs or a headboard.

3. Have white....lots of it! This picture says it all, white is not boring if you choose the right pieces.


4. Have at least one piece, a wall or a window with a bold pattern & color. Bright orange & greens seem to go real well with white.

5. Have a ledge display of your flea market finds.

6. Add ultra modern pieces in steel, aluminum, brushed nickel or chrome pieces. And last but not the least,keep it simple!

Pretty good tips huh?

The site also has lots of cute accessories to create looks such as "French Country," "Modern Vintage," "Rococo," and "Shabby Chic."
