Learn to Live a cozily-inspired life
Hello, and welcome to my home
I’m Brenda, and this is Cozy Little House. I write about small-space decorating. My home is simple, organized, and cozy. My house is over a century old and has the charm of the past mixed with the conveniences of modern life. I’m here to help you live a cozily-inspired life with beauty, simplicity, and a touch of nostalgia. Join me on this journey as we create a life filled with treasures, both old and new, and grow a beautiful cottage garden in containers.
“There is nothing like staying at home for real comfort.” Ralph Waldo Emerson

Explore My Latest Book Reviews
I have a small home library set up in my living room, layered with books, both vertical and horizontal, and decor. I mainly read fiction, non-fiction, and memoirs. If publishers and publicists want to send me a book to read, I will review it honestly.
Step Back In Time
To a Simple Way of Living
The home is cozy, lived-in, and functional, with worn wooden floors and handmade quilts. Shelves lined with books, jars, and keepsakes. The concept of home is about finding beauty in the useful, joy in the routine, and meaning in the ordinary.
Grow a Cozy Cottage Garden in Containers
Many herbs, vegetables, flowers, and various trees grow perfectly well in pots. I will help you discover the best ways to mix plants together, choose a color palette, and create a beautiful, lush garden in pots. If a vessel can hold dirt, you can put a plant in it!
