Show me your overhead porch lights!
Comments (10)Love the dimmers! We have 14-15 cans spread out around our 8' deep porch. Porch wraps around 32x46' house. Don't know the spacing off hand. I can check. The back door has the dimmer. The lights can be turned off/on at any door to the pre-set level. We also have fans on the back off the kitchen/dining area. My only requirement was to have the fans be between the lights, far enough apart as to not have a strobe effect. Dad did the placement. When the lights are really low it looks like moonlight coming in all first floor windows... Excellent glow. Pic of porches. Jen...See MoreOT - I will be AWOL for a while
Comments (19)Thought I would check in. We are in San Miguel de Allende and it is a really beautiful city. We bought some fresh strawberries the other day & made a pitcher of margaritas - only I had forgotten to make ice. OH WELL - we drank them anyway! :) Everyone has been really nice and helpful. We have only seen one fabric shop and the quality wasn't very good. The best buy they had was polar fleece for $39peso a meter - about $2.75 a meter! I didn't buy any, but it was fun to look. Linda, I hope you had fun in Boulder. Thanks for all of the well wishes & for following us - we'll keep you posted. Adios! Sue...See MoreRE: Spanish Revival/Mexican/Mediterranean Style - Part IX
Comments (150)BinsB How GREAT! I'd guess by now the 'kids' are knocking from the outside - yes? Paleese post a pic if you can. We'd all (I'm sure) love to see your accomplishments :-))) after waiting soooo long. Love the orange colors of the nursery but mmm - are they really going to sleep in one crib? :-)) Just kidding. When you have time, which likely won't be for awhile I'm sure, would love to see the nursery with the paper flowers, et al. Not to worry about the non-span house of present. It's the spirit inside that can carry it thru. Imagine what a tough time I have in my location. LOL!! You'll have lotsa fun (when/if you can find the time) doing some special stuff in your new abode. Trop - hmmm pictures this year? LOL! That will be fun to see. I'll look forward (but won't hold my breath too awfully long). :-))) I'm thinking maybe you just eliminated the kitchen altogether and are doing take out now? Houseful it's great to have you posting again. Perhaps you can help us breathe some life back into this thread as I know Bins is going to be rather busy over the next while. :-)) If it weren't for her dedication, I'm sure this thread would no longer exist. I have a few things on my plate but hopefully they will be resolved shortly and I can return to my decorating love. And speaking of thread(s), I didn't check but I'm thinking we must be getting close to limit - yes? Should we be starting a new thread? Waddya all think? Take care all, Holly...See MoreGirlz (and boyz) GTG
Comments (32)Great suggestions. I've been to a few of those but it's been years. I'm flexible since I don't have any other definite travel plans. DH and I will take another lazy drive around PA to visit family and friends but we'll schedule that for October. My best friend and I are taking our daughters to Ireland but at this point we're just waiting to find out when things re-open and hoping we can go late summer or early fall. Thanks Mtn for following through on the GTG - It's something to really look forward to after this abysmal year....See Moremtnrdredux_gw
