What A Vacation In Maine Taught Me

Our story over the past 7 years has been rocky, somewhat like the craggy coastline that is synonymous with Maine. Seven years is around the time that we fostered than adopted a five year old girl, who is now our daughter. I had a thriving Interior Design business, and had just signed on one of the biggest clients of my…

The Best Creamy Crab Coleslaw

The 4th of July is around the corner, and while we celebrate the deeper meaning of Independence Day, the day also is synonymous with gatherings of family and friends. Barbecues in the south, and clam bakes in the north. For me, the 4th of July also marks the beginning of Summer. I grew up in Upstate New York, and we…

Chasity’s “Sweet Pond Cottage” Apple Pie

Growing up in a large family, we all had to help out around the house. My job was to bake, although I never looked at it as work. I took recipes from cookbooks passed on through generations, marveling at the handwritten notes of my grandmothers.

Sweet Pond Cottage “Cucumber Cooler”

It’s hard to believe that Summer is almost over, giving way to the glorious colors of Fall. Living in Georgia, the weather can remain sweltering through November, so I’m still in a summertime frame of mind.

And while Sweet Pond Cottage is remote, I still love modern amenities and having the option of plugging into the outside world occasionally. While I’m here to…

Sweet Pond Cottage Style:: 5 Perfect Paint Colors for Cottages

The fact is it’s been awhile since I’ve posted, but I decided to spend time making the Cottage a home. It’s been a year of scouring antique markets and looking for just the right pieces, those that have meaning. If I’ve learned anything as a Designer, it’s that you simply can’t rush the process. In fact, there are still bare…

Welcome to Sweet Pond Cottage! I’m Vicki Gladle Bolick, Editor of the award-winning blog, The Ace of Space. I created Sweet Pond Cottage as a place to visit for inspiration on design and entertaining. This charming Cottage has a story, one that I hope inspires you. I’m so fortunate to be partnering with some of the biggest names in the industry on this journey, and I look forward to having you follow along. In a world that is often in a hurry, I want this to be a place that inspires you to create not just a house but a home. Filled with tradition. A place upon leaving you can’t wait to come back to. One of my favorite quotes is by Henry David Thoreau, “If I could put one touch of a rosy sunset into the life of any man, I shall feel that I have walked with God.” Here’s to living a life of rosy sunsets… Read More
