Okay, I get to walk-through now. Yay!
Okay, first impressions on the exterior. First thing I saw was the landscaping in the front. So pretty! I love the blue flowers with the bushes behind them. It blends perfectly into the exterior of the home itself. I love the wildflowers under the trees in the front. Very well done.
I like what you did with the front porch. Not too much there, but enough where it looks cozy and inviting.
The backyard looks very friendly with a curvy pool and play area. I like the touch of having the bar up on the deck instead of a barbecue. Ah the barbecue is closer to the house in a picnic area. Fun! The whole area looks great for kids, with the swing set and jungle gym, as well as the pool.
Alright, going inside, first floor. Everything looks so homey! I like what you did with the living room. There's a bunch of different colors, but it looks real and lived it. I absolutely adore the kitchen. I like the cabinets you chose and the stone motif tile work on the walls.
Oh the nursery is so cute! Gender neutral coloring, but still has butterflies! I love butterflies if anyone doesn't know. Well, and dragons, and fairies...oh wait, walk-through. No one needs to know that. Moving on! I love the nursery!
I like what you did with the hallway. Those are always so hard to do anything with to me. But you've made it a cozy little study with old record player and seating with a bookcase. A lovely little room.
What a unique take on an office! Coffee and tea makers on the cabinets are a nice touch.
Okay, second floor. I love the rooms you have up here. I think my favorite is the kids' gameroom. I love the pillows around the TV and Battlestation with the Voidcritters on the wall. Well, I also love the boy's room. Actually, I love all the rooms. Wait, I already said that. They are all my favorites!
Overall, everything works so very well. I love the colors you used. Nothing is too monotone and everything looks "real." It's hard to explain what I'm thinking here. Things like the boy's room. You didn't just go.."Okay, I need a boy's room. Let's go with a blue color scheme and throw toys in." Which is entirely what I would screw up doing. You used a lot of pastels and neutral colors everywhere which is how a real home is. I just love everything you'd done here.
Thank you so much for decorating my little shell. You are awesome as always hun!
