brian and i have been itching in the last few months for a new home.
don't get me wrong, we are beyond blessed to own a nice home now...
but there are so many things we don't like about it, after living in it for 2 years,
more and more things bother us, like the 90's doors and cheap cabinets,
the super small laundry room, lack of storage space, taupe carpet & walls.. etc.
dreaming of a new, clean, simplistic beautiful home like this:
Shane and I are totally in the same boat! We have been looking at some land out near where I grew up, but there have been some problems with the lawyer/contracts/blah blah/I don't really know... but I am SO READY for my home/apartment barn {first} out there in the wide open spaces! Happy 2011!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree--my husband and I have been living in the same apartment that he rented two years before we got married, and I want so badly to start decorating and making a house my own (we aren't allowed to paint or do anything like that).
ReplyDeleteOh how I long for the day when I can have vaulted ceilings and white open spaces! :)
i dream ALWAYS of a new place - i love my pad that i can call all mine - but it wouldn't hurt to have more space, that's for sure!!
ReplyDelete*kiss kiss*
Happy New year

sounds like a good excuse to re-model!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE all of that white! *drool*
ReplyDeletei am a huge fan of white spaces as well! but i would just be afraid of it getting dirty haha!
ReplyDeleteI was itching for a new space about 6 months after we built our house, i felt like it was too small and hated the builder basic finishes. Then I realized that I could change the things I dont like and get creative with storage... I certainly dont want to clean a house bigger than what we have now. We will buy property someday but for now i am happy with our little home (and little mortgage payments :)
ReplyDeletethose are gorgeous homes! you should do some DIY projects to fix the things that bother you in the meantime. once we have a home of our own, i definitely foresee myself going crazy with projects to perfect our home!
ReplyDeleteI daydream about the 'perfect house' all the time. I do love my loft but closet space is sparse and one bedroom makes it hard to make guests that comfy. But, then Ted always teases me with - if you give a mouse a muffin....
ReplyDeleteAll the pictures of lovely!!!
OH man, these spaces make me so so happy!
ReplyDeleteoh i loooove those! that kitchen especially!!!
ReplyDeletereading the comments above show me how many people want to do the same. me too! can't stand to keep working on a house that I don't want to grow old at. these spaces are beautiful. good luck on finding your dream home :)
ReplyDeleteNew follower here! :)
ReplyDeleteI have been itching to get into a new house, too. Like you, I am grateful for what I have, but am starting to feel a little cramped. (My husband and I used to own a house, but are now renting an apartment. There just isn't enough room for everything!)
