About
Hi! I’m Layla Palmer, and me and my husband live in the deep South- Pike Road, Alabama to be exact! And like our header says, our blog is our playground and passion pushes our swing! We enjoy reading & writing, making music, and sharing inspiration. We named our blog The Lettered Cottage because of the passion we share for writing, and our love of cottage style.
By day, (and some nights!) I author this blog, and when he’s not writing and recording songs, Kevin teaches people how to use their DSLR cameras and Photoshop at ShootFlyShoot.com. Together, we produce articles for HGTV.com, and we also shoot & style interiors for a handful of national home magazines.
If you’re new here you may want to start by checking out some of our most our most visited pages and posts.

You can also check out our archives page to see a list of all our posts.
We love using Facebook and Twitter, too!
We usually blog three times a week, and you can subscribe via RSS if you’d like to get an email whenever we publish a new post.
Our blog is a custom design created by (us and) Bethany Hway, who we highly recommend. Our post font is Georgia and our cursive font is Sunshine in my Soul. TheLetteredCottage.net is a self hosted blog through WordPress.org and we can’t say enough good things about our tech-friends, Shauna Callaghan (who helps us with all things WordPress) and Beckie Farrant, who is blog biz genius!
We can be reached at laylapalmer@aol.com or kevinpalmer41@gmail.com.
There’s excitement in not knowing what you’re going to reveal about yourself or your surroundings from one day to the next- and our hope is that one day we can look back at all these posts and smile big about days gone by. And in the meantime, we hope you’ll be inspired to laugh, learn and live it up with us, too!
