Every summer I'm inspired by outdoor spaces and backyard cottages. I've been collecting images of them for a bit now (see here and here) and hopefully one day will be able to create a space outdoors for the summer ourselves. In the meantime I continue to collect inspiration. This time from the latest issue of Covet Magazine and the backyard urban cottage of publisher Vicki and daughters Lily and Piper. By clearing out the clutter, Vickit turned her garage into a summer time space they call the Beach House that comes complete with a loft for sleepovers. Click here to see. (Photo by Tracy Shumate).

I love your collection of images. I have sort of done the same thing. I have a 3 ring binder full of pages from magazines that I keep for inspiration. I must say I might have to add this one to my collection.
