Take me to Nantucket

Watching the HGTV dreamhome last month made me REALLY want to take a trip to Nantucket. I've never been, but I've always loved it from afar! I seriously can't get the idea of moving there and living forever visting there out of my head! I would love to just hop on bikes with the boys and cycle around town with my camera. Here are some of the homes I'm crushing on:

Have you ever been? What is the best time of the year to go? Any recommendations on where you'd stay?

 

GORGEOUS German Village Home Tour!

I stumbled upon this article in the Wall Street Journal which featured this amazing house in German Village in Columbus, Ohio and it was love at first sight! In the article they mention that is home was on the market, so then I did some Zillow stalking and found it online. To say that this house is amazing is an understatement! I am totally inspired by their vision and style!

Here are the pictures from the article:

LOVE the pop of yellow!

 

 

I want to move in!!! Only $975,000 :)

Another Upcoming Project: 3rd Floor Bath

My third floor has a TON of potential. The bathtub is heavenly! The wall color and the floors... ehh, not so much!

This project is next in line after the master bath and my mini-closet redo. I'm not exactly sure how I want to decorate it, but I do know I'll do/get the following:

- Repaint the walls
- Get the bathtub resurfaced
- New tile floors
- New toilet
- New vanity
- New window treatments
- Add storage for towels/bath stuff (there is actually a TON of space between the toilet and tub and the near wall, great place for a set of shelves or a cabinet)

I need a design that is will serve well for a guest bath for like the next 4 years, and then well as a kids bathroom after that. Here are my favorite sources of inspiration. I love that they are sophisticated with a pop of color!

(love this floor!)
