Tuesday Meme Designer's Choice






Hosted by Toni!

Designer's Choice (Use Photos If Possible)...



1. My home would be in the style of?

I live in the home of my dreams...  even as we are considering moving into a one floor  dwelling  I  cannot imagine living anywhere else...
Our home is considered to be a modified English Tudor..



I would love for  the Gaines to do a  redo on our front aspect...  put stucco and  decorative timber  above the brick  to  bring back the  Tudor   style.

Tudor Lite - Exterior Paint Colors - The Decorologist





Elements like this  plank door,   gentle archways,  style of fireplace,    and the thick decorative stucco walls are not  seen  from a view of the home.








2. My kind of furniture style is?

My style   is traditional with a bit of the Olde English thrown in for good measure..Here is the reading corner in our bedroom





Our recently  redone kitchen


  We  soon afterward  got our new  stainless  stove




3. My floors would be covered with?
Hard wood throughout  with  Karastan area rugs in most rooms


4. My landscaping would look like?
When we bought this home  30 years ago  the write up said it  had a park-like yard...  the yard is very big almost an acre... with many trees.  We have actually  cut down over  30 trees and  planted probably 15 back.  Through the sun room window

 A  lovely tea party,

  summer greens

Autumn  explosion



Spring surprises




Some of these photos are  older than others...  I reminisced putting this together  about how  our  seasons have changed.  In 2011  both of my parents  moved into different  nursing facilities and  I just didn't have time to  decorate  as much...
then  in  since 2014,  we have  travelled  back and forth from Boston  a lot  during and prior to holidays and I just do not decorate as much anymore, but   things  are  beginning to be different now that that the girls are older...  They will be coming here  if they want to see us over the holidays.
Just for fun.. if money was no object.. well  I love  these  I have on pinterest!
