WHAT A SHOCKER!
An English country house,
featured on
THIS blog!

(has anyone come up with a
sarcasm inflection yet?
 need. please share.)

By now, you know
my appetite is insatiable
for pretty pictures
of properties like
Bazeley House
offered by First Option.



The undecorated 'undone' look is so pleasing to my eye.
Perhaps today I'll take a wee risk as I lead a tour of this home,
daydream of the English countryside, and type
stream of consciousness style (as is my nature).
Perhaps I will not mention
Rob Pattinson anywhere in this post...
oops.


the most amusing part about this youtube? some of the comments posted
i.e. "did he smell nice?"
um...someone's been living under a rock for 3 years
 (omg i need that sarcasm inflection again!).



Oh heavens the pristine floors...
just kill me in the face.


Enchanting, yes?


Love how the windows go to the floor.


If this were my kitchen,
I'll tell you what I'd do
besides thank the Lord I
have two refrigerators
and a kickass house.

Invite each and every one
of you to join me
for a champagne and Swedish pancake brunch
(and what the heck? my special cinnamon bread too!).


Say it with me.

Insatiable. 

hugs.

hello lovely BASEMENT MAKEOVER (2): white painted paneling



Exciting news!!

We are 90% sure we're going with
white painted horizontal 8" tongue and groove
pine panels for our basement makeover.

Not only will this save my husband
a TON of mudding and taping, it will cost
only $600 extra (for the 800 square feet).

We think this will give the space
more architectural interest and charm
as well as make it more teenager friendly.

Enjoy these images of London's Anabel House which
never fail to get my heart racing...

Hope you'll follow our makeover--makes it
that much more rewarding and fun for us!

I'll be taking photos at the work day's end today (still the framing stage), so stay tuned.
