"This magical reading nook was originally the dining room area of this 1,300-square-foot cabin built in the 1970s, but a last-minute reimaginging of the floor plan opened up the snow globe possibility, proving sometimes the best things aren't always planned."
"Before Kiera and her husband, Mike, purchased the cabin, it had been sort of builder-grade renovated after being a rental for 15 years, and was somewhat stripped of some of its original 1970s character. But the bones were still there, so we focused on adding as much charm as possible through furniture, paint, wallpaper, and plenty of vintage artwork."
"It was the 1970s architecture like the tall ceilings and big windows that immediately drew the couple to the cabin, and they say they could envision how infusing some personality back into the space would be possible with the right furniture and accessories."
Kiera Kushlan and her husband Mike purchased a 1,300-square-foot cabin in Quechee, Vermont, after falling in love with the area during a family vacation. The cabin, originally built in the 1970s, had been stripped of its character during 15 years as a rental property. The couple redesigned the floor plan, converting the dining room into a reading nook with rattan swivel egg chairs surrounded by windows. They focused on restoring the cabin's original charm by leveraging its strong architectural bones, including tall ceilings and abundant natural light. Working within a $30,000 budget to furnish the entire house, they used furniture, paint, wallpaper, and vintage artwork to infuse personality throughout the space.
