I love your style! Your home is so beautiful! We have been remodeling a 120 year old home for 2 years. Almost done. Would love to what style & brand the sofa in your living room is & where you purchased the fireplace the fireplace screen. Looking to seeing more of your work!

We have a very similar fireplace and I’m wondering what you did to yours? Did you redo the grout? I’m not exactly in love with ours, but can’t bring myself to lime wash or paint the brick.

Your home is just absolutely beautiful and welcoming! From your foyer, I’d feel welcome to come in, sit down and enjoy a cup of coffee with you! Beautifully decorated with such a cozy feeling that any guest would be comfortable spending time there with you and your family! Job well done and as with all that you’ve accomplished already, that yard will get done, too! You and your husband are definitely a credit to your neighborhood and your children are so fortunate to be living there!!

I’m especially impressed with the changes made to your master bath. What a nightmare it was before and it’s so beautiful now! I’m looking forward to seeing more changes in the years to come.

So warm and cozy. Could you please tell me where your living room sofa was purchased? I love the color and size.
Thanks

Well, I’m honored. Thank you! A lot of our windows have roman/bamboo shades. However, the windows on the back of our house, with exception to the bathrooms do not have any shades. We live in a very private area and back from the road enough that you can’t see in our windows. The shades we do have were purchased from Home Depot. Sadly, they’ve been discontinued. I love wooden shades. They add a little warmth and match just about anything.

Thank you so much, Ann! That means a lot. 🙂 Life is too short and I’m too cheap to follow the trends closely. Lol I think everyone should decorate with what they love. Homes would be so much more unique that way. 🙂

Thank you Vicki! My friends and I joke that I have old lady style… if that’s true, I’m okay with it. I think it’s classic. 😉 I used eye hooks, one of each side with thick picture hanging wire. Currently I have a very large, very old antique mirror in my dining room that is sitting on my buffet because I’m in the same boat as you. I’m a bit worried to hang it the same way because I don’t know if the frame is quite strong enough to take the weight. I’m hoping to find a solution. In the case that I do, I’ll be sure to share it here.

That is the best compliment I could receive. Thank you so much, Pat! I’m so glad to have you following along. 🙂

Thank you Julie! It certainly has been a journey and yet, we’ve had so much fun with along the way. I’ve often wonder that myself. I think they might be a little shocked and possibly not recognize it.
