Outdoor Curtains…

Good Morning!! Did you all enjoy your weekend??  I have quite a busy week planned, which includes another trip to Charleston to put the final touches on the model.

I drove by a beautiful house on Saturday that had a large front porch, with flowing outdoor panels.   I love bringing indoor elements outdoors… features such as Outdoor Curtains.  I think they add bring a softness and comfort level that would otherwise be missing.  I found some great inspirations images, any of which I could relax in for hours.

So, which space would you like to relax in?

Enjoy your day!

Outbuildings are In

Good Morning! Hope you had a great weekend! I had a horrible night sleep so I am hoping some great images start the day off right!

Did you ever have a secret hideout space as a kid? Maybe it was a fort, a special tree, or even a shed.  I would take any of these outbuildings for an adult hideout any day! Actually, I would love to have a studio space just like this… A perfect place to create, unwind, and then quickly return home.  Now that’s the perfect commute!

I just love the idea of transforming a shed or even a detached garage into functional living space.  Just think of the hidden potential even a falling down shed has! Hope these images inspire you!

Note to self, I will be building a “adult hideout” when I have my own backyard! It’s now on the To Do list!

Enjoy your day!
