As the couple brought in viewers for a tiny tour ("like baby Cribs'"), they discussed how they sourced affordable pieces and special touches — like a seashell necklace hanging from the wardrobe — from Etsy. They also used leftover materials from old projects to "reuse and rethink things you can buy really inexpensively," Brent explained. For example, Berkus refaced a wardrobe from Ikea using pieces of wallpaper from their Manhattan apartment and the couple also utilized Moroccan lights leftover from designing their beach house. 

The interior of the cottage boasts a neutral color palette with shades of taupe, gray, and beige, which work well together to create a laidback, beachy feel. The space is accented with numerous wicker details, like the coffee table with sleek, black legs, as well as a serene painting from their close friend that hangs over the Pottery Barn daybed.  

Other touches included several pillows on the daybed, a small potted plant, and a few candles, which certainly creates a peaceful getaway. "It kind of looks like we took the main house and ... shrunk it," Brent explained. "It's small but it feels kind of awesome," Berkus continued, summing up the overall vibe of the casual, yet stylish space.
