You were one lucky lady to get to stay in that absolutely gorgeous place. I did a post on it this summer with photos from the original feature with Betsy's decorating for the Newhouses. You can see it here: http://www.talkofthehouse.com/marthas-vineyard-week-a-then-and-now-house-and-another-chance-at-the-giveaway/ Would you please let Betsy know so that she does not have to do some much research work? :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15930333902201017655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763730258323026627.post-80048095909504537282015-10-12T22:52:26.928-07:002015-10-12T22:52:26.928-07:00Delores and Betsy--Have either of you read the blo...Delores and Betsy--Have either of you read the blog---Talk of the House (Kelly)?<br /><br />She did a whole piece on the Betsy Speert designed house (which she loved) and she scanned in the original magazine article.<br /><br />Here is the link!<br /><br />http://www.talkofthehouse.com/marthas-vineyard-week-a-then-and-now-house-and-another-chance-at-the-giveaway/<br /><br />Nadja (Delores---read your blog since the beginning and have missed seeing more posts--hope the house is finished by December!)<br /><br />Nadja (Gutowski Cipriani), Richmond, Va.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13481854036485603807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763730258323026627.post-61499126856751796382015-09-29T13:54:09.052-07:002015-09-29T13:54:09.052-07:00It is a VERY small world!!!

It would be amazing to stay there, but alas, my traveling to "far places" is over :^(<br />Thank you so much for showing this lovely home, and yes I agree the kitchen should have been a different color.
