My two favorite home tours ever!

I'm back today with two of my favorite house tours EVER! I shared the first few houses from the Indy Home-A-Rama here, but these two are the most beautiful (I thought) at the event. I loved every bit of them and I've been excited to share these pics with you. 

Let's get right into it! This one was pretty from the outside -- loved the porch and the stone:

I'm doing some checking to add credit to builders and designers.) 

The living room must not have struck me because I don't have one picture of it! But the master (on the main level) was absolutely gorgeous:

Can you believe that's a bedroom? It was by far the coolest master on the tour. Love the ceilings!

The master bathroom was beautiful as well -- I loved the cabinets raised off the floor (although I know in "real" life that would drive me crazy because dust would hide under there):

I loved the counters and the lights underneath too! That's a great idea for midnight trips to the bathroom. :) 

This kitchen was one of my favorites too: 
dark blue island white cabinets

Love the chairs, the island, the lights! 

Loved the addition of the sconces above the sink too:

Isn't that pretty? The countertops aren't really marble, at least I don't think (I found this stuff when shopping for ours -- it's a crazy good lookalike that is also crazy expensive). I like them pulled up as the backsplash as well. 

Here's a better shot of the island. Love the microwave in there like ours! (This is just slightly more custom though, ha!):

The little detail on the upper glass doors is a nice touch as well:

The basement in this house was the COOLEST!! I did some Instagram videos of this house and when I looked back I realized I kept saying the house was "so cool" on every single video. Cause it was. 

This was the tap room, because who doesn't need their own tap room:

Loved the wood accent wall and shelves:

This basement looked like a real bar. It was awesome. I'd shake up some drinks down here!:

This house had so many wonderful details. I could have spent a full hour exploring every bit of the rooms. 

See? Like a real restaurant!:

Loved the other side of the bar too:

Upstairs I found this bathroom floor that I LOVED: 
hexagon tiled floors

How cute would that be in a small powder room or a little girl's bathroom?

This bedroom caught my eye too -- I loved the wall treatment:

This was one of my absolute favorite spaces...the open area upstairs was so fun, so cool. I loved the wall treatment here too: 
wall trim with squares

When you turn the corner it's a multi-functional space -- lounging, homework or crafting and then the sweetest little nook: 
long kid's desk for homework

On the opposite side the stairs went up to the master bedroom:

It's these little touches that make this house dreamy to me. I adore houses with unexpected twists and turns like this. It makes it so unique and feels like their are "secret" rooms. (And this house had one!) 

Loved this desk area: 
built in homework desk with storage

And this corner nook had me gushing. Look at all that storage and the windows!:

And the ceiling, wow!:

So if you turned around, there was another small nook with bookcases. You pushed one open to walk into a secret bunk room:

Here's a video we took:

My favorite recent projects and posts!

Well hello! Hope you have a wonderful weekend planned! I'm back with another round up of posts from the past few months today. I used to do this monthly but I don't remember to do it most of the time -- so now you get them in batches of two or three months. ;) It's always nice to look back and what I've accomplished around here and it may show you something you've missed! I finished up our loft makeover at the end of the summer -- I shared how I made the giant chalkboard for this space: This is a room that's meant for the whole family so I wanted to make it a fun space. We created a Disney art wall that we'll add to over time. We are going back to Disney World soon and I can't wait to add new memories to this wall!: You can see how we made that Disney pin art in that post as well!  I showed you how I made the large desk with butcher block and how I finished it here :  I also shared my new favorite sanding technique in that post -- it is a SUPER cool tr...

DIY stacked stone fireplace (where there was none!)

Well hello! I have a BIG reveal for you today! I worked so hard on this basement fireplace and I'm so so SO thrilled it's done. I'm excited to share it with you today! I took a ridiculous amount of photos so bear with me. :)  I'll show you where we started first! We have this little bump out in our basement and from day one we knew what we wanted to do with it. When we finished the basement years ago we went ahead and bought an electric fireplace for that spot. It sat on a bench for four years. 😁 A few months ago we decided to have the fireplace built in since the whole space was torn up for the new floors anyway:  Then I was craving a little more traditional look so we had the hearth added along with a mantel:  Then it was time for me to do the rest! I knew I needed to stain the mantel and hearth before I tiled -- it would have gotten all over the tile otherwise. I sanded both down and then cleaned them really well. A wet paper towel does fine:  I ALWAYS use a pre...
