The Lettered Cottage E-zine

May 2, 2011 By Layla

Hi.
We’re Kevin and Layla Palmer. We like to take road trips, and chances, and photos of people’s places.

Late last Summer, we started putting some of our photos together in our own own little e-zine, and we’re so excited to finally release it here on our blog today! It’s short, but sweet, and we really hope you have fun flipping through it!

Click on the cover below to view the full-size, interactive issue in a separate window…

But before you click away! We both wanted to say thanks so much for taking the time to check it out, and for continually inspiring us to jump in our car with our computer and our camera. We appreciate your encouragement, and can’t tell you how much we enjoy exchanging inspiration and ideas with you!

Happy May!


PS- The links in the e-zine are live this time, so as you flip through, you can click on any of the web addresses you see. Also, to the folks have asked about hard copies- if you’re interested in printing out a copy of either of our e-zine (Summer Fun or Screened Inn) there is a print option in the top left hand corner of the screen when you’re viewing the full-size issue. Thanks again!

    Hi Layla and Kevin-

    I get so excited when you two publish a new e-zine. I have to take a deep breath before I go to the first page so that I can relax and savor every word. As always – I am never disappointed only inspired more. Loved every page and am going to keep that kitchen cabinet re-do idea handy.

    My best- Diane

    Fabulous e-zine! Loved it. Great job! And the strips of wood on the kitchen cabinets in the last article was genius! What a great idea. Thanks.

    so pretty! Makes me want to go back to Tybee and then venture out to the crab shack- YUM!
    Sorry- it is getting close to lunch time, here!

    You guys are SO talented! I love this ezine!! I loved Mary’s wallpaper and totally agree with her about husband’s and wives having separate bathrooms. We’ve done it since day 1 and it makes getting ready a nice experience on my own without contending with hubby’s mess. 😉

    Beautiful photos and inspiration. That little cat quote is so cute!

    Loved it! Do Peter and josette have a blog? I loved their updates. Loved their cabinet idea. And I fell in love with the picture of the white bed with the blue pillows and matching throw pillow and window treatments. Do you happen to know what that pattern is/where to buy? I love your ezines, love your style!

    I loved what Josette and Peter did to their kitchen – do they have a website? I didnt see one on their article.

      Hey Krista! They do not have a website, maybe we can talk them into starting one! 🙂

      • angie

        May 4, 2011 at 5:51 pm

    IT. IS. AWESOME!!!! Now, I just wish it was in print form so I could buy it 😉 I honestly think you are on your way there though – I know one day we will see it in the stores – you are too talented for it not to be.

    We are building our farmhouse and I am constantly drawing inspiration from your posts – thanks for all your creativity and for being so nice and sharing it with all of us!

    I LOVED it – so many great ideas and inspiration.

    It was a toss-up for my favorite part – the homemade glass holder in 99 Steps (LOVE that idea!) or the fantastic way to fix up old cabinet doors. Both are ideas I’m saving for later!

    I also NEED to know what paint colors Josette and Peter used in their kitchen. I LOVE it, it was just the look I was looking for. (make sense?)
