dream home

I probably shouldn't indulge in this post, but I can't help it! I love daydreaming about big white farmhouses and all the fun ways I could decorate, so I decided to waste my time creating a virtual tour of my dream home. I'm obsessed with Design*Sponge, so most of the pictures are from their site. I love the eclectic combinations showcased in their "sneak peeks"!


Welcome to my Dream House...

I LOVE this entryway, with the barn doors going into another room, presumably my family room... (not a huge fan of the antler chandelier or the rug).

In my family room, I have this sweet fireplace, but there's probably a lot less white in the family room... since I have several children, obviously.

Also in our family room somewhere is this cute photo collage. And hopefully that ADORABLE elephant watering can!

Then there's my pristine kitchen. Don't be alarmed by my butcher knife that is sticking into the countertop...

In our breakfast nook is a charming wooden picnic table. This picture was taken before we remodeled so there was enough room to go around the table to sit on both sides...

Oh, we also have a fully stocked pantry, full of my canned produce.

Also on the first floor is my cute laundry room that is never messy.

Let's go upstairs, shall we?

Here's our bedroom. We recently got rid of that chandelier... and we'll probably get rid of the lace blanket, too.

Our bathroom:

The guest bedroom...

Here's the girls' room. I'm getting them a new rug.

The nursery, for our little boy.

And you guys saw my writing room in a previous post.

As we leave the house, be sure to check out our porch swing.

Oh, don't forget our barn, which houses our two horses.

Isn't our little home perfect??


Sidenote - If we ever had to live in a city apartment with a balcony, these would totally be our doors.

  6. Of course the kitchen is white! I'm in love with that pantry. One question: who the heck has time to change all their food into jars?
