A Cottage Tea Party

Building traditions. My grandmother loved tea and every time I would visit she should have the kettle whistling on the gas stove and smells of freshly baked fried hotcakes greeting us at the door. When she served tea it was with a sense of relaxed formality, I remember feeling like a princess drinking from fine bone china with my little…

The Artful Table:: January

It’s a brand new year at Sweet Pond Cottage. Each month has brought about change both inside and out. At times, it’s hard to believe all that’s been accomplished in a year, taking a blank canvas and creating a home, layer by meaningful layer. Sweet Pond Cottage has become more than just a destination, it’s a lifestyle. I have a…

Old Fashioned Fried Donuts

It’s the holiday season and time to make all things “merry and bright.” We will be decking the halls and hanging Christmas stockings from the chimney with care.

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
