My Home
 

I think that it was last spring where several of you posted pictures of your homes. I have finally gotten my house in order so I could take pictures and get them posted on here. I really enjoy my home and I hope that you enjoy it as well!

1,2, & 3. are pictures of my living room
4. Is a picture of my entry

These are pictures of my bedroom, which I'm about to rearrange.

1. This is the master bath! My favorite place in the whole house!!!!
2,3,4. These pictures are of my dining room.

And here's the kitchen!!!

If you look, in several of the pictures you'll see little miniature cabinets. I collect cabinets, cupboards, and antique children's dishes from the 1900's to about 1930's.

I hope that you enjoyed my Home Tour! I'll see about getting some holiday pictures in after I get it decorated.

Diana your home is so beautiful, makes me want to tear mine down and start over. I love those long windows so much. Seems like I have things sitting everywhere, I want the clean uncluttered look you have.

Janet, it doesn't look like this all the time. That's why a picture wasn't posted earlier!!!!! And there's things tucked out of sight in the picture too!!!! Usually the long counter in the kitchen is cluttered from one end to the other!!!!!!

I do love my long windows. We lived in an old farmhouse before and had to put plastic on the windows to help keep it warm in the winter but you couldn't see out of them so when we designed our house it was with big windows all around. I love it when it snows in the winter because no matter what room you walk into you can see the snow!! I think that's why I like for it to snow!

BTW-I remember the pictures of your house and it was very cute!!!

I, also, just got rid of a HUGE pile of clothes in my bedroom when we had our garage sale a couple of weeks ago that had been sitting there for about a year. Otherwise you wouldn't have seen a picture of that room!

Diana - Your home is stunning!! The sunlight beaming through all those beautiful windows is amazing. Your bathroom is to die for!! All the rooms are just gorgeous!!!!!

Thanks for inviting us into your home. It's very warm and inviting, sooooo fitting because it's just like you!! "Warm, Bright, Cheery, and Inviting" :p

Awwwwww.....:blush: Sheryl, you're so sweet!

Very nice Diana!
Your home looks very comfortable and inviting. My kind of place!
Well done!

What an inviting home, Diana! Your family is so fortunate to have such a great place to visit their grands!

Your home is very warm and inviting. Your windows are very nice. Oh, now you've done it. I need to get off here and go clean. After the holiday, mine needs some organizing.

Hope you have a nice winter so you can enjoy that snow!!!!

Diana, i agree with the above posts. Your home reminds me of you, it's warm, and inviting. You really do have a lovely home, it's the kind of place ide like to be. Homely, friendly, warm, and inviting. Well done girl, you should be proud :thumbup:

I need to find the thread with everyone's photos of home. I enjoy so much looking at other peoples homes. Maybe if I get my holiday decorations up I'll post some more. That's what we need a thread for holiday decorations!



Also forgot to ask, is your dining room paper or faux paint? I have some faux painting done in my family room, but it's darker, I really like what you have in your dining room.

Thanks everyone for your comments! I hope that you all know that if you're ever going through southeast Kansas that I DO have a guest room that's available to you!!!


Janet, my dining room is faux painted. I picked up this technique from a friend and it's so cheap and easy to do. Basically it's sponge painting except I used a plastic bag (like a Wal-mart sack---Make sure that you turn it inside out because the printing on the bag bleeds). I painted the wall my base color, which was cream, sponged on a dark color, then a lighter color, then my base color. I used a darker and lighter taupe but I've heard of people using two different colors. It's very easy, just make sure that you don't stay in one spot too long with one color! Oh, and after you dab the sack in the paint make sure you have some old newspapers or a piece of cardboard to dab off some of the excess paint.
