Dear Reader,

The good news is that, even though Thanksgiving is just around the corner, there is still time to get serious about your house. Whether you like it or not company is coming!!! Please, please, do us all a favor and toss that stained rug, sofa, chair--whatever it is that you have been hanging on to long past its owes you anything state. And, then, take a deep breath, and get to work. Banish the clutter, ditto anything broken, donate all that stuff you don't need or want anymore and remember you can always zip into British Cottage.

Even if you need a new sofa or dining room table--don't fret. We have plenty of stock--in stock! See for yourself what the interior design wizards from North Carolina have wrought, along with yours truly's unique mix of antique and rustic chic. And besides great furniture we offer a curated selection of artwork: prints, photography and paintings for a quick (and affordable) refresh. Or maybe you just need some blue and white ginger jars for the mantle, a new bedside lamp or a couple of toss pillows--we've got that covered too.

Questions? Design dilemmas? That's what we are here for. Let's face it, you can only get so much design inspiration from a web site or Pinterest--and it's always better to see (and sit on) furniture in person. Not sure where to park? There are no restrictions on the street but if you'd rather not deal with the traffic we have a few parking spaces behind the store and we promise if you can get in we can get you out!

For even more design inspiration take a peek at our British Cottage Blog. Whether exploring the ins and outs of sofa buying or peeking into possibly your neighbor's home, we offer design tips and glimpses into the real houses of New Jersey---even recipes.

While our background was not originally in interior design we have been in this business long enough to know what should go where. And when you are here we will be happy to take the time to help you figure out exactly what your home requires and do our best to make it happen.

The more information you come in with---the easier it will be. Measure, measure, and then measure your space again. We're happy to see photos so shoot us an email: bcapine@gmail.com (it is easier for us to see your images on the desktop).

Call, 732 530 0685, if you have any questions. We can provide local delivery of any item, whether it be a lamp or a sofa and if you live out of the area we will ship via whatever method it takes.

Cheers,

Tricia and Keith
