for those that know me in real life, it is no surprise that i absolutely love everything related to home design and decorating. i read a ton of home design magazines and am obsessed with hgtv. and if i had all the time and money in the world i would re-design and re-decorate our house over and over again. yard included. unfortunately both are usually in short supply around here. good thing we're moving into a brand new house that both the husband and i have worked hard on designing. we'll sort of. we went off the home builders plans and modified some things to make it just right. i've been wanting to find a creative way to include our new house as a project on my blog for awhile. i just couldn't figure out how. other than just throwing together a random house update. then i had a break through. why not make it a series and include the building process and the decorating process as we move along?
we're actually about three months away from our possession date and the house building is in full swing. you can see previous house posts here and here. we've been through all of our selection appointments. some more than once and some more than twice. we sometimes second guessed our selections. the great thing about building brand new is not only do you move into a house where no one has peed in the toilets but you can choose everything. and i mean everything. faucets, paint, baseboards, handles, cupboards, fireplace mantles, stone, tile, and the list could go on and on and on. i'm not going to share all of our selections and that part of the process. partly because we finished up with it a couple months ago and partly because then there's nothing to look forward to as the house gets finished. but you get the idea.
not sure how often the rockford files will appear, but i'd like it to become a regular series on my blog. you may wonder where the name came from. well there's two things behind it. one: rockford is the name of our street. and two: the husband loved watching "the rockford files" with james garner, growing up. it just seemed to fit.
hope you'll follow along.
