Welcome to the Cottage.

The Tiny Canal Cottage is a resource for helping folks mindfully conceptualize, decorate and enjoy versatile + smaller home spaces. Founded by designer, consultant, stylist, creative director and author, Whitney Leigh Morris, this family-owned small business recently finished the construction of a new, compact cottage and greenhouse-office in the southeastern US, and are also restoring a little 1800s French farmhouse and its outbuildings with co-stewards. Morris’ focus is crafting flexible, sustainable, and more community-focused home spaces. Explore Whitney’s book, blog, and social channels for years of tips and tales from living and working in — and with — a smaller footprint.

This week I wore a Southwest shirt from The Farm Project to our local farmers market to remind myself what's in season here in SoCal. Why? Because all year long we can find nearly anything we want at our local grocery store, regardless of the season and region we're in. But buying certain fruits and veggies at certain times of the year might not be the best thing for our health or the planet's. Read more about this topic here.

My handmade ascot is from Late Sunday Afternoon, and my hat is from West Perro. West is in a top from Go Gently Nation, and leggings from Etsy.
