8.	THE COTTAGE AND STUDIO OF SUSAN AND DAN MCMANUS, SR., 304 Nicholson Avenue, Waveland.
Susan and Dan McManus of Abita Springs, Louisiana, purchased this 1930's raised cottage on oak-lined Nicholson Avenue three years ago and began renovating and adding on immediately. The cottage interior was expanded as walls were removed and new rooms created. The kitchen up-date called for new cabinets and flooring. The couple added French doors, a full bath, a sunroom and many other amenities. Susan feels that her effective use of every available space makes up for her home's overall small size. Last year they built a charming backyard studio. The cottage is an ongoing project for this retired school principal and her insurance executive husband who do all the work themselves. A pergola was the latest addition to the property. Susan is an avid collector and you will see her collections in every room. The semi-tropical gardens provide a cascade of color in spring and summer. Hours: 1:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m.
9.	THE HOME OF GEORGE AND LILI STAHLER, THE GREEN HOUSE, THE RED HOUSE, 513 Jeff Davis, Waveland. The Green House has been in the family since 1943, originally a six-room center hall cottage built c. 1900. Lili's family notes that it was moved to its existing location in the early 1920's. The Stahlers began renovations on the home in 2001 updating it from a summer/weekend home to their permanent residence. The original part of the home contains a blend of the antique furniture collected from both Liii and George's families. The front room features a Rosewood love seat, matching chairs, a plantation gentleman's chair with its matching lady's chair and a Danish sea captain's "wedding chest". The original claw foot bathtub is one of the features in the guest bath. In the great room is the writing desk of George's great-grandmother and an elegant Boston library table carved with the Page family coat of arms on either side. A circular pine stairway leads to a second floor study. The master suite features a lovely sleigh bed and French dressing table. One of Lili's favorite areas is her garden bath. On display is her Statue of Liberty collection. Of special interest is the stained glass window of Miss Liberty and the Twin Towers.
Leaving the back porch, a path wanders alongside of a delightful pond, ending at the Red House, which is used as a guest house, and its nearby pool. Liii said the family refers to it as the "Honeymoon Cottage" because many relatives spent their wedding night there. The Stahler's art collection includes work by Elsworth and William Woodward. Hours: 1:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m.
