One more photo of the garden window in the dining room. I had both garden windows lined (top, bottom and sides) with granite tiles matching the granite countertop. Another perk of having a small house..it didnt take much granite for the windows:
And now I'll check out how to do thumbnails. Thanks again! |

Georgeous.....just gorgeous. Way to go folks. You're doing some beautiful work out there! Texas....for a small place, you have done wonders and where did you find that incredible bathroom vanity/sink? It is just amazing. I love the way the top/sink waterfalls down the front of the cabinet! Kshe...your personality just explodes in your work...absolutely beautiful!

Love the house pics! All that dark wood is yummy. And I now have organized-garage envy. 
Hey kshe95girl, in another thread you mentioned stripping down some old mahogany. Got any pics of that project?

I so want to post photos of our rooms RIGHT NOW, but of course none of them are 100% finished yet - curse the $$!!!!!!! Within the next month, we should have our formal living, formal dining, kitchen, powder bath and study completed and I will post a tour then. I'll see if I can scrounge up old "before" photos from when the house was new and had nothing in it.  I want to see more people's befores and afters! Post 'em up peeps! |

Great pictures.
kshe- We are done building our off grid home. "All" of the pictures and story are in that link. There is more than 150 pages to my story.
plaidmom- Thank you. The 2 Florida homes are investment homes. Tennessee is and always will be home. 
TFW- I love small houses and you have done an amazing job with yours. I really like so many of your choices. We have to redo these FL homes and go the extra mile on them which means granite and stainless.  Where did you get your granite? I also love your plantation shutters, your shelving, and your bathroom vanity. You are lucky you were able to get a smaller vanity. We have to get a 60" and it is really really expensive.
Nickman7- I know exactly how you feel. I am having heart failure over the prices of things and we have to gut and remodel two houses.
Sorry i don't have any great pics yet. I have a lot of tearing things apart but nothing is put back. Well I got the insulation back in the kitchen ceiling today.  We took the soffit out. |

Thanks so much, everyone. My house is a tract home built in 1967 and it's been difficult to give it some individuality without spending more $$ than the house is worth.
beachmel, I must have searched 40 hours on the internet for that vanity. I was actually just looking for something small enough to fit the bathrooms and lucked into finding that nice sink. Below is the link to where I got it. The current cost is $650, which may sound like a lot but was worth it for the upgrade effect it had on the small bathrooms:
Fairmont Designs 108-V26 Manor Collection 26in. Bath Vanity & Sink
Home Depot has similar vanities now with the "apron" sink. The below one costs $250 has good reviews:
Pegasus Valenza 27 In. Vanity, China Top, and Mirror Combo in Cherry - HDV3 at The Home Depot |
