Semi-finished but I don't care 'cause we are in!! (pics)
Comments (44)kelly~ After posting on another thread to see more of your house photos, I did a search and this thread came up. OMG!!!! Your house turned out SPECTACULAR. It is soooo gorgeous. I love it all. There's not one thing I see that I think should be different. It is perfect. I too love the kitchen, the wood ceiling, the stone walls, and both of the showers. That slate is amazing! That's the most gorgeous application of slate I've ever seen (and I happen to adore slate!!). I am so happy that you have moved in. How goes the progress? Are you hosting the holiday's in your gorgeous new home? It would be a crime to keep that beauty all to yourselves. LOL. :o) Is that an outdoor shower? My goodness. I could just look at your photos all day. The trees in the front are gorgeous. The view looks amazing. The colors are perfect. The wood is sublime. Girl, you couldn't have done it better. It's stunning. And I too can see why you have oodles of equity in it already! Many happy years in your new home. :o) SusanL~ I too bought the Harrod's Creek plans from Cornerstone. We ended up not building that plan (too expensive for the area we were in... it was "overbuilding" for there). We purchased a home in your state and are having it finished. So now we're "neighbors". I hope you'll post photos of your house as you progress. It was my favorite home, and I still hope to build it somewhere, someday. :o)...See MoreHas this happened to you? I don't care for my kitchen
Comments (92)Thanks for the support. The pendant is from Shadesoflight.com: http://www.shadesoflight.com/fasciati-glass-lantern.html I still need to get glass shelves and the door with panes for that cabinet by refrigerator. I am also trying to decide whether I like the back of the cabinet to be painted the same color as the walls or just leave it white. I think I am leaning towards leaving it white. You could see it in the picture but it isn't lit below the first shelf as I still haven't placed the order for the glass shelves. Taking a step back from being so TKO really helped. I took my time choosing the lighting - many returns, many days and nights staring at the computer screen. I knew I liked lanterns but was drifting in another direction. The breather helped. I am very happy with the lighting choice. I am working on the other rooms that look into the kitchen and the lantern pulls everything together....See MoreI don't care if they split--Savor melons are AWESOME
Comments (54)OK, I *finally* got to taste my first Charantais. It was big, but starting to crack at the end. I've got about eight that are pretty much full-sized, and none of the others have started to crack. Keeping my fingers crossed. The flavor is truly awesome, even for one that evidently might not have been fully ripe. Like regular cantaloupe with sugar sprinkled on top. The sweet aftertaste lasts for a while in your mouth, and I suspect some may find that disconcerting. And yes, they look nothing like regular cantaloupes on the outside, but look exactly like regular cantaloupe on the inside. This one must have been almost ripe. Flesh was just slightly firmer than a fully ripe cantaloupe. But it was mostly green on the outside. Of course, wasn't even close to slipping. Just starting to get a little beige at one end. I can tell that assessing ripeness of these may be a bit of a challenge. I'm delighted to have these start coming in, because we had a very wet few weeks, and I've lost half the Santa Fe crop to bugs and rotting. The Charantais have been much more durable. The lack of netting may make them so. I should add that mine are smaller than a regular cantaloupe, but still pretty big. Larger than a softball. Maybe five or six inches in diameter....See Moredon't care about second bedroom but care about losing a closet
Comments (10)So I went back to the condo today with a realtor. I think I could definitely live with the 2nd bedroom now. I would make it into a study. I was disappointed that there is no washer/dryer in the unit but it is right next to the apartment. Of course, that means there would always be folks outside my door. It was on the 20th floor so it had a great view but I was a little weirded out being on a balcony that high up. I was also curious about the windows. They looked old to me and in one window the seal was broken (foggy). I have no idea if/when that would be fixed in a high rise condo. Also, what kind of assessment would that be? It would have to just pots and pots of money. There is now an offer on the place (not mine) but now I know I could live there--preferably on a lower floor. The condo comes with doorman, concierge, gym, pool, dry cleaners and restaurant. It is close to the museum, the main library, and other amenities. Then, I looked at another building in a different area of the city. This building did not have garage parking--I would have to pay 300-400 per month to park. The apartments and the building were in much better condition but of course, the price was higher. This was a one bedroom but I really liked it! So much to consider....See More- 7 years ago
