Heads or Tails *In The House*
One of my favorite bloggers, Skittles has started a Tuesday meme. It is LOTS of fun-so you'll wanna join us right away! If you click on the Heads or Tails logo - it will take you to the post to tell you more about the meme.
This week's topic is Heads - Any part of (or place in) a house.
This post probably won't be what you are expecting. You'll be required to use your imagination in order to fully appreciate this post. You see...
This will eventually be my new kitchen (complete with dishwasher)...
And this will be my new bedroom (Yes, I can call it mine, because my husband doesn't usually sleep in the bedroom).
Now, as I said, you must use your imagination. It really will be nice. My kitchen will have cornices over the windows (My daddy made the cornices for me), and they will be covered with a wallpaper border featuring a cow/barn/silo scene. I also purchased for my husband, the collection of Bonnie Mohr dairy cow collector plates - she is an amazingly talented artist. So, those plates will be displayed and tie in wonderfully with the border on the cornices.
The bedrooms' cornices will have a wallpaper border featuring a sunset scene with sheep in a pasture. The bathroom, which I couldn't get a photo of, will have the most awesome curtains. You see, before we moved, my dad's girlfriend surprised me with these curtains. They have lily pads, cattails, and dragonflies on them. They were intended to remind me of fishing with my dad, and that is exactly what they do each time I see them. Since she made them, we've been collecting little fishing/dragonfly/etc items to hang from the curtains' tiebacks.
So, that's the addition I keep referring to. Excuse me while I get technical... I've been checking my performance management software, and I've concluded that at approximately ... ummmm. Eventually, my bathroom will have four walls and heat again (I hope)... we'll have closets (wooohooo)... we'll have the proper insulation and doors (and our electric bill will go down - serious woooohooooo)... and... well, you get the idea. :-)

It's great to see your plans and dreams and would love to see them realised.

Looking forward to seeing the finished product. I talked about the perfect kitchen which I don't have.
So will the ladder still be there? Cuz that's my favorite part so far.
Wow, looking forward to the end result...good luck!
Dang Misty this is going to be fantabulistic! I am so happy for you, and I think you might have to have me and JenGi up for coffee in your new digs. xoxo
Wow! Can't wait to see the fully furnished product... I'm excited for you. :) Thanks for visiting my page. Happy day!
Wow! I'll come back to see the finished product - I'm not good at seeing kitchens! Grin. Sounds like it will be lovely place - and the bedroom, too! What fun!
How exciting! I'd want to stand there saying hurry hurry hurry!
Hi Misty! How exciting! I remember when we were having our house built, I love imagining how things were going to turn out.
I can see it! I can see it! It will be wonderful, cozy and warm!
Happy HoT Tuesday, Miss Misty!
So, you're going to have your dream kitchen?!! Congrats.
My H o T is posted, a place in my heart today is shared. Come by if you haven't already, I'd love to have you join me on my special day.
I´m with Jersey (who guessed it? *LOL*): I can see it - and I don´t even need to close my eyes, sweets!
This will be the perfect home, that´s for sure!
How exciting!
Isn't it great to make it all exactly the way you want.
You can find my entry ::here::
Have a great day!
It is always exciting waiting for a room to take shape! Neat pictures!
:)
It's going to be gorgeous!!! I can't wait to come over and see the finished results. :o)
hey all the best for your new kitchen
A project like this is exciting whilst it's being done but it's fabulous when it's finished! Can't wait to see it finished.
I know you are so excited! It's going to look great!
BTW, do you have a pic of your house with the hole in it? I need to visualize when you say you have to go outside to get to your bathroom. ;)
Isn't remodeling fun!?! But you'll love it when it's finished. Can't wait to see it.
Thanks for stopping by. :)
Now my head hurts trying to imagine all that, the one thing that stuck was the curtains,t hey sound fabulous! :)
I'm so excited for you! It'll be done before you know it. ...no, really, it will! ;) Happy Tuesday.
I'll see the finished product next year and I can't wait!
Shup.. yeah.. I played. LOL
Wow hope it goes fast the building of it.
I have trouble sizing up things when there no dry wall is up.
But I bet it will be nice when it done.
Sure hope you have better luck with your dishwasher then I did.
My heads and tail is up
Ah, the joy of building. Isn't it fun? we had our house built a couple of years ago and we are getting ready to finish our basement, so I fully appreciate your pictures. And I can see it all in my head--it will be lovely!

It looks to me as it probably should look at this stage of construction. It will look much different and be the way you want it to look when it's finished. I think it will be well worth it when it's all done :)
Our house is also under construction. Ours is much smaller though.
It must be so frustrating to live under construction!
But it sounds like it will be lovely, the curtains sound wonderful.
Your house looks like mine...lots of renovations. Can't wait to see the kitchen when it's finished!
How exciting!! I hope you'll keep us posted on progress with more pics! :-)
There's an award on my page for you!
It is not just the new rooms that are exciting, but the pieces of your family that will be in there as constant reminders. You must be so excited.
You'll keep us up to date on progress, right? It's going to be fun seeing it shape up!
Ugh. I have a kitchen and bathroom to do, and floors too.
I'm looking forward to it, but not the the mess and time it's going to take. Plus, I'm not handy so I won't be able to do a lot myself.
