Front doors. They’re a good accessory to your house’s exterior. They’re that accent pillow kind of pop of color that makes a statement and defines your home’s aesthetic. Personally, I’m a sucker for a bright colorful door. Especially one that’s got added character too. Dutch doors, craftsman-style you name it. Here are just a few […]
UPDATE! We have new windows. Like all new windows. Not a single old one is still there. Including a giant new window installed in the living room. Combine that with the opened up ceiling and I think we’ve got some good light happening inside now. Below is a picture of the window from the outside. I […]
“That’s one sexy carport,” said no one ever. This is the reality we must face though. Our garage evidently was built illegally and must be converted back into a carport. It’s not too terrible. I hated the garage anyway so maybe it’s a blessing in disguise. Basically I think we should pretty much tear it […]
Here is what our kitchen looked like pre-demo. Note the hideous tile and countertops. The oven placement is funky too. This is what it looks like now after demo day. We also recently opened the ceiling. So this, photo, minus a ceiling: Now, the Photoshop renderings. We’re replacing the left cabinets with a refrigerator and adding […]
I’m failing at catchy post titles. I apologize. “Breakfast Nookie” came to mind but really that has nothing to do with my post. So Breakfast Nook it is. So the sliding glass door is being moved to the hallway. In its place, it’ll just be a window. I mean look at that view! A fence! Whatever, […]
I’m obsessing over a lot of things to put in the cabin, but one of them right now is the bathroom door. For the back bathroom I think it would be fun to add a little character to it. Something as simple as a “Poop Deck” plaque – hehe. Or something super cool like an antique door. […]
NOW YOU DON’T! The whole back side of the house was demoed and we’re rebuilding it from scratch including expanding the second story.
I really need to come up with better titles. Anyway, now that we have the living room ceiling opened up, we have to decide what we want it to look like. As I see it, we have 3 options. The least expensive and probably most minimal is drywall at the top with a few support […]
Yes, you read that correctly. Cabbage. Cabin + Cottage = Cabbage™ – You’re welcome. So what is this style? I’m trying to figure that out. I know this cabin won’t be as modern as the other one. I’m thinking something a little more cozy and traditional. I’m picturing plaid chairs and sweater pillows! I still […]
Without further ado, BEHOLD, The Julianna Cabin. In its defense. It is waaaaay closer to the lake (we’re still in south lake). Like 4 blocks. You can walk to it no problem. It’s 2 bedroom/2 bath like the Jack cabin. It also has a loft-like space upstairs that we plan to convert into a play/sleep […]
