“Cottage” awakens thoughts of a cozy, comfortable, and safe dwelling. “Thyme,” according to the ancient Greeks and Romans, was a source of courage. Hence, Cottage & Thyme Design Co. provides design assistance customized to your needs, while encouraging and empowering you to create a beautiful home where you and your family can thrive. I’m Monica, the face and heart behind Cottage & Thyme Design
Co. I am passionate about all things home, especially the relationships that are built and fostered there. I love a “collected over time” look and have a fondness for furniture and decorative pieces with a story. In my design, I naturally create cozy spaces and get giddy over breathing new life into otherwise outdated things. I really like adding little unexpected touches that make a space feel even more special and original. Melissa Michaels, author of The Inspired Room blog, says, “Our homes should inspire us to go out into the world to do great things and then welcome us back for refreshment.” I couldn't agree more! Making our homes beautiful isn't about creating show places for the world to see. Instead, it’s about creating an environment that fosters peace, inspires creativity, reflects your family, and blesses every soul who spends time there.
