Looking Up

With only 9+ months until we hope to buy a house, I'm starting to think about my dream design to-do list. Ha, ridiculous, I know! Lately, while browsing Pinterest my eyes seem to be fixated on things above. 


I've noticed a lot of stunning pictures of recessed ceilings. Sign me up! I'm very curious in knowing more about the moola it would take to add this to a home.







Painted ceilings. It would be fun but would I get sick of it? It would open up a rather small space.





Bead board up top. I want a sun room just so I can add the texture to the ceiling. It screams cottage but I love the relaxed feel.





At this point I'm thinking that I want to try it all. That could very easily change in 2 days let alone 9 months. I'll just dream away...


Do you have a favorite look?

Celebrating 100!!


Yes, today is the big day! And yes, it has been way too long since my fingers have typed this fast across the screen. Today, HomeAwaits is celebrating the 100th  post! (It is basically it's own entity.) 


Surprisingly, I did it! Who would have thought! 


Blogging is fun but holy moley it takes some time.


In hopes of bringing you a great celebration for the 100th post I hesitated on what to feature. With my recent bloggacation (aka vacation from blogging) writing isn't coming the easiest. So... here's some eye candy for you! Check the tabs underneath my picture on the right. Here's our evolving walls we call home. Remember, making a house a home takes time and effort and rarely is ever mastered. Come on over and take a look.
