Farmhouse sink


I love these sinks! Want one. With a whole new kitchen surrounding it, of course.

Porches

I love enclosed porches and wrap-around porches. I would love to live in a home with one or both. I think we could add a nice front porch to our home - but that is way down on the bottom of our list of things to do.

This home I found on a real estate website here.


and this one here.


This photo below is from a bed and breakfast at martha's vineyard. I've always wanted to visit Martha's vineyard, and used to think it belonged to Martha Stewart.


Click on the pictures below and it will take you to their original websites. So pretty!







Chandelier

I've been looking at this chandelier for 2 years. Its at World Market for $80. I LOVE it. Its gorgeous.

Curio

I like this corner bookshelf type thing to use as a curio cabinet. I like the thought of curio cabinets, but they all look so old-fashioned. I like this one because it is more modern.

Probably not the most practical for those with babies.... :)

Fire pit, outdoor

I also want a fire pit, preferably one that my kids won't fall into and get maimed. This one is only $48.00 from WalMart!

Outdoor Improvements

Since I have a hard time keeping up with my three small kids inside the home (I clean one surface only to turn around and see it's been messed up again), I am focusing on improving the outside of my house. Or at least imagining improving it.

I really want Jon to make me a garage pergola similar to these ones:





(minus the fake looking ivy) (image from remodelingcenter.com)

I also really want a tall cedar fence all the way around my yard, or at least in the back, to keep out the crazies.





Love this.

If I had a house. One of the rooms would be painted this color.



Bathroom Ideas


I like the idea that they have of putting the towels in that wall hanging. I always see things like that and never know what to do. Its cute.

I think this is cute too, it could also be a way of showing off cute decorations.



I really liked this idea. You could use it anywhere - but in the kitchen or bathroom would be cutest....

Pottery Barn




I love most everything Pottery Barn, but they are just waaayy too expensive. So I look at their catalog all the time. This is from one of them and I would LOVE this living room....

Mudroom

This is what I invisioned for our mudroom/laundry room. It hasn't quite happened yet, but once we have more space and other places to store things besides the laundry room, maybe.

I'm pretty surre I found this off of the Better Homes and Gardens website.


Personal Library

I LOVE this idea. We don't have this much ceiling space in our home, but wouldn't this be fabulous?

I found this here.

Family Room

This is a room designed on "HGTV Showdown" designed by Genevieve and Carter, one of my favorite shows.

I LOVE IT. I plan on using this for my inspiration once my basement is finished.
