Millon Dollar Model Upstairs

Saturday, March 28, 2015

Yesterday I shared the first floor of the model home that I can't get out of my head.  The ceiling and details throughout were stunning.  When you go up stairs you walk into the Homework Landing.  




From there you head down the hall to the bonus room.  I love it! My only complaint is that it is right off the Master Bedroom which defeats the purpose for me since it is the kids hang out space.


It was complete with a wet bar, microwave and beverage cooler drawers.


The Master Bedroom


I am a sucker for a claw foot tub.



This is the view from the upstairs Master Bedroom Balcony.


Three kids bedrooms.  I love the wallpaper panels in the "girl's room".



A view of the back of the house concludes the tour.


Photos don't do it justice, if you love peeking into real estate you should check it out.  This is not a sponsored post, I just think the house is really cool!

What was your favorite part?


Dreaming of Summer

Tuesday, March 3, 2015

I don't know about you, but after 2 weeks of snow I am dreaming of Summer. There's nothing better than relaxing on the porch or patio with a ice cold beverage.




Outdoor Traditional Christmas Lights

Thursday, December 4, 2014

I had the most wonderful Thanksgiving weekend and hope you did too!  We did tons of decorating! Handsome Hubby put the lights on the front of the house while I decorated inside and on the back porch.



We still need a rug for the patio, snowflake lights, pillows and more, but it is starting to come together.  I am hoping to wrap it up this weekend for a post on Monday.






Sunshine & Lemonade Porch updates

Monday, July 28, 2014

I hope you are having a great Summer so far!  I rarely want to be indoors working on projects when I could be at the pool or on the porch instead.



For the last 6 years I have made new cushion covers for our patio set, and even bought new foam for some of the cushions.  This year I found a great deal on Sunbrella replacement cushions that I couldn't pass up!  

Before:



Eek!  The blue cushions were really awful!

After:








The side of the porch with the chairs is looking a bit boring.  I think I will paint the spool table.  What color would you choose:
Teal
Aqua
Navy

I am linking up with Best of The Nest.

Landscaping

Friday, March 14, 2014

I have been MIA in blog land lately.  We still haven't unpacked from the cruise and we are planning Mason's 5th birthday party at the last minute.

Landscaping has been on my mind, even with the party planning and unpacking. We have an unsightly view from our side yard and need to plant some fast growing shrubs ASAP.


For the front yard we want to move our Flame Maple over to the left so that it doesn't shade the front of the house as it gets bigger.  We would also like small kidney shaped garden bed with a Crepe Myrtle and some Rose of Sharon's or other flowering shrubs.   Landscape is not my specialty, so I am open to suggestions.
