White Winter Home.

This is one of those MonochroMAGIC homes.  Whites, creams, sparkles and time worn woods, a perfect combination.  My favorite accessory in this home is the matching kitty on the bed.  Enjoy, Heidi

Old World Inspired Kitchen.

                    This might just be the perfect kitchen for me, I just cannot stop looking at it.  The only thing I can find that I would change is the way the door swings on the fridge.  Enjoy, Heidi

Houses that ROCK!

High ceilings, exposed wood beams, enormous windows flooding the room with natural light and the bare stone walls.  Yep, it gets me every single time.  Enjoy, Heidi

 I fell in love with Ballard Designs many moons ago.  They just keep getting better and better every year.  This living room is perfection in my book.  The moment I laid eyes on it, I immediately thought of the idea of keeping the wall over the mantle bare in order to project a television image onto it from the ceiling.  When I asked my audio/videophile husband about the idea I could instantly see the wheels turning and head noddling, that it was a profoundly good idea.  So into the dream house file you go, living room pic. 

Enjoy, Heidi

Just like in fairy tales, a secret door that reveals a room full of treasures.

I love how you would never know that there is a room behind those cabinet doors.  I think that this is going into the plans of Operation Dream House.

Here is another one and by the way, the kitchen it is in is to die for as well, so I took the liberty to share those images as well.
