I want to live in a little black house! If you know of cool photos of tiny black cottages, will you send them my way? Thanks!

I’m right there with you. But it only seems to make sense to me if it is a cottage or a really small house.
Wow, who woulda thought? I actually love it. More so the first one though, I think its being so rustic helps.

Whitstable on the Kent coast has black wooden buildings called fishermens huts – some are rented as holiday accomodation. http://www.holidaypad.net/accommodation/94/fishermens-huts-in-whitstable
They’re all round the harbour area and are used for all sorts of businesses as well. Come to think of it, this place is great for oysters (not in a black hut but next to them) http://www.whitstableoystercompany.com/
I love them too! Posted one on my blog here:

Having seen your request for pretty black houses I thought it would be the perfect opportunity for my first comment on your lovely blog. Which has been sitting happily in my favorites bar and viewed daily for quite a while!
Back to the point. I have some amazingly pretty black houses to share, if even put them on a blog i have yet to share with anyone as it’s the way I store wedding images to show the boy.
I hope you enjoy!

A total love shack! Closer to you have you seen Isabel Marants delicious retreat? http://tmagazine.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/08/19/le-shack/
Swoon!

Hi Chelsea
Have you seen pictures of the film maker Derek Jarman’s cottage and garden at Dungeness, Kent in England? He wrote such a beautiful book about it some years back shortly before he died (Derek Jarman’s Garden). It’s all about the plants he managed to grow in a bleak, desolate and inhospitable shingle expanse in the shadow of a nuclear power station.
thank you everyone for the suggestions!! xo
