Just over the border from MA, in the southern NH town of Brookline, there is a wonderful old New England home lovingly cared for by Maria Cardillo and John Nealon. Attached to their primitive décor store, Country Culture, the home houses their collections of antiques and prims. Each fall, Maria adds to it’s charm when she totally transforms their home with fall and Halloween décor. Every single shelf and surface was just a photo-op waiting to happen. Here are a few more photos of their home for your enjoyment!
Does that leave you wanting to see even more??
Well then, you are in luck!!
You can see Maria and John’s home in person on Saturday September 10th and Sunday the 11th from 10am – 4pm during their annual Fall Open House weekend. They will also host Audrey and I for a magazine signing on Saturday from 10-2 PM. Please join us and see this year’s fall transformation for yourself! For directions and info just click ~HERE~. We hope to see you there!

I so just want to curl up and read a scary novel by the fire in that house! Thanks for the photos and inspiration, even in the 100+ degree temps in AZ, it's time to think about Fall!
WOW...breath taking!
Wish I could see in person...I may have to plan a trip next year down that way :)
Wow...great pictures! I'd love to see what the house looks like on the outside, too! I wish I lived closer so that I could go to the open house and see it in person!
This is such a gorgeous home! I LOVE the decorative painting on the wall, and that trunk is amazing too. So wish I were close by, I'd love to pop in for a visit! lovely place!~
Will one of you gals have the APP candle at Maria's to 'scent sample'?
I am really looking forward to seeing the house and that mural. Can't wait!! I will see you there at some point...

So inspiring!!! Love these warm tones and placement of everything, but the chest is to die for. Such a fabulous piece. Would love to attend this event.
I can not wait to get the APP&CJ Candle. I LOVE Star Mills Candles, they are absolutely wonderful with Excellent Fragrant and Throw.
Have a fun time ladies at the Fall Open House.
Warm Hugs, :)

What a lovely place to just sit and relax while looking at all there lovely items. I am so close I should take a drive there.
Goodness what a gorgeous Prim/Colonial home - just what all of us out there try to emulate but I guess you need the resources to achieve it....I try but am so far behind something like this.
Their home is picture perfect in every way.
Thanks for sharing and GOOD LUCK AT THE SIGNING...and also congratulation on the candle with your name/logo on it...how wonderful is that.
I want to congratulate you also on the success of your magazine! Fantastic job.
Karen
