    Home of the Week | Windows Galore

    The outside of this home is just beautiful. That tree and bright green door create such a welcoming scene.  Walking into the home you'll discover a large open floor plan. A quick paint color change and switching out the light fixtures would modernize this area but other than that it is perfectly move-in ready! I also might switch out the carpet with matching flooring and ...

  5. Home of the Week | Backyard
    Home of the Week | Backyard

    Welcome back to another installment of "Home of the Week"!  How do you make a house pop (Besides a well-manicured landscape.)? You compliment the house and shutter colors. This home has an orange/yellow tone to the brick so the owners chose a blue/green color for the shutters and it looks fantastic. They each make the house pop without being distracting or clashing against ...

    Home of the Week | Rustic & Dreamy

    How pretty is the façade of this home? It looks like something out of a movie, doesn’t it? The porch, the landscaping, the colors… I love it all! I’ll do my best to avoid “photo overload” but this home is so unique! It took me a minute to figure out where this room is located, but it’s a mudroom right off the kitchen. At first I thought it might ...

  11. Home of the Week | Colorful Facade
    Home of the Week | Colorful Facade

    Welcome back to Home of the Week! This exterior doesn't scream "overly colorful facade" but it's all in the details. This isn't a shade I've seen often in houses and the brick detailing adds an additional unique diminsion. Pair that with the colors in the landscaping and you have yourself the perfect pops of color. Well executed and well maintained!   ...

  12. Home of the Week | Dreamy Facade

    The first thing you'll notice when you see the inside of this house is all the natural light.

    Home of the Week | Spacious Basement

      Welcome back to "Home of the Week"!  The grass is green, the plants are growing and this front porch is waiting for someone to grab some sweet tea (my beverage of choice... what can I say, I like to pretend I'm Southern.) and relax.    I like the brighter color of this front (and side) door paired with the neutral siding. It ...

    Home of the Week | Updates Galore

     Prepare yourself for a mass amount of photos. This home was perfectly updated in my opinion. For starters- take a look at this cheery exterior color! I love the wooden stairs that were paired to make a statement to the entryway. They easily could have made them white to match the trim of the home, but chose to make a focal point instead. Well done! As soon as you walk ...

  17. Home of the Week | Front Porch Livin'
    Home of the Week | Front Porch Livin'

    This neat house has a swoon-worthy front porch to make into your own personal oasis. Have I mentioned how much I love a good front porch? .  A few plants and some wicker furniture (and maybe a swing?) are just a few ways this space could be transformed into a part of the house you'll never want to leave. Would you keep the floor color or paint it.. or tile it? I've also ...

    Home of the Week | Sunset Photos

    I love a good sunset photoshoot! It makes the home seem so inviting- and that sunset is beautiful!!   As soon as you walk in you can see the house boasts an open concept. I like that the light wall color keeps the space bright but I may go for a different hue just to keep things from blending in together too much. For example: the carpet and the walls are basically the same ...

  19. Home of the Week | Front Porch
    Home of the Week | Front Porch

    I'm always talking about adding some seating to the front porch and this home has done just that! Despite the wintery landscape, you can tell how welcoming this entrance is. Here is another quick view of the front entrance. I love the retaining wall that was added for a few plants. Anytime I can bring in some extra green or color to the front of the house, I do. Once spring ...

    Home of the Week | Americana Home

    I’m back! Hello, Home of the Week! The exterior of this Cedar Rapids home has that “Americana” feel, doesn’t it? All it needs is a big front porch and some pillars and the ‘American Dream” is right there in front of you. The stone detail on the bottom half compliments the siding on the upper half of the home.

  22. Home of the Week | Brick Home
    Home of the Week | Brick Home

    What a gorgeous view! I love the subtle, regal details the exterior of this home hold. There is so much beautiful natural light, you will want to pack your bags up and move right in.   Walking in the front door you will immediately feel how open and inviting it is. The staircase is the main focal point but beyond that is the family/tv room and flanking the staircase to the left is ...

      What a beautiful, cozy, country home! There’s something about the "barn" details added to the garage doors that make me swoon.
