Well, I'm happy to finally announce that our roof is finished! Yes, you read right, finished! And it looks terrific! We heart it big time! In other great news, our front door arrived! She's a total beauty. I'll share pictures of her installed tomorrow. Plumbing is moving right along and is basically finished, Geo-thermal is in full swing and we should have duct work early next week, and we're getting ready to start electrical. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas... in February! ...
Kitchen Love
It's been an important week. One devoted strictly to my favorite room in the house, the kitchen! To say that this room has been easy, is a huge understatement. In my mind, this is the most important room in the house. It's the heartbeat of the home. The gathering place. Simply put- it's a big deal. And big deals require more attention to details. We all know small details make the biggest impact in a room. So, we try and think of everything. Since I have devoted so much time to the kitchen this week, I figured you'd like to see what I've been working on! Earlier this week I quickly fell in love with this (can anyone guess why?): (via) Let's take a closer look at the item that caught my ...
Inspiring Inspiration
Inspiration can be found in many different places. The internet, Pinterest, magazines, books, etc. are all terrific places to find a variety of images that will motivate and inspire. This may be shocking news, but building a new home requires hours and hours of searching for inspiration. The amount of decisions that are required throughout the entire process can be a tad overwhelming at times. I've probably looked at our contractor at least a dozen times throughout the building process with a bewildered "deer in the headlight" sort of look. If your anything like me, quick decisions don't work. And you have to see visual images. Sure, I can picture in my head how things will look, but seeing ...
Clear As Glass
Hey there! It's been exciting around here. Lots of things are going on at the house and we are getting more and more anxious for the big move in day, which in all honesty is still up in the air. Sometime in March. Hopefully the beginning part, but middle at the latest. It's still looking about the same, but cooler. The windows are officially installed! YES! They made such a huge difference on the interior and exterior of our home. And it's warmer inside. Our heater really bites right now. Just sayin'. But the air conditioner, she's blowing at full steam! Hopefully we'll be ready to start with the Geo-Thermal soon. Seeing this come together piece by piece is very awesome. Here's some ...
The Making of Something Beautiful!
It's amazing to see something change so quickly. For some, change can be hard, but when it's as exciting as this, it's hard to not be ecstatic as the building progresses. In fact, I'd like it to change quicker. :) In just a few short weeks (ha, it's definitely felt longer) we have went from this: To this: I. Know. Right? Pretty sweet, eh? We've been knee deep in making all sort of decisions. Like stucco, rock, roof and soffit color. Hopefully, when everything is finished the front will look like this: (Colors Only) (Via Realtor.com) We're lovin' the black rock with the cream stucco. So pretty! But for now, we're still here and waiting on the roof: Because we all like them, here's a ...
