THE LAND

It's ours!
We finally bought our lot today.
Pictures to be posted after we take them.....
sorry, I know. This blog is boring without photos.

the plan

Okay, we finally decided on a house. This is the floor plan. We have a lot of changing to do now though. So, I am sure that when we are finished the house will look nothing like this original plan.

Here are some of the basics we have already decided... fiber cement siding, 30# shingles, custom colonial painted trim, fiberglass front door, stainless steel appliances and hood range vent. Whoo hoo.... boring stuff isn't it? Now, the fun stuff starts.. AND for me, the really stressful and hard stuff. Mostly because Shawn doesn't really care and I am really really picky, afraid to choose something I will hate later.

I am on a quest today though to make some decisions. I want to decide on kitchen cabinets. I am thinking about doing two different tones. One color/style on the walls exterior and another style/color on the island,. I know you are thinking... this house plan doesn't have an island... it will. OR one color in base cabs and a different on walls OR one color as a basic, and another just a few pieces to accent.

Here are a couple pictures of two tone looks I like.

So... I'm throwing it out there... what should I do? I really really like the black cabinets. But, am I brave enough???? That is the question of the day!

update #1

I know what you're thinking. There is nothing going on.
The truth is ---- there is nothing going on.
We don't own a lot yet.
We can't buy it yet.
Have you ever been told you can't buy something when you have the money and you want to?
Well, that is us.
There was some sort of mix up with the recording and the plot plan, etc... so it's back to the attorney and re-do some things.
They told me today it will be two weeks.
I wanted to start this blog off with a picture of the lot.
But, I might lose me entire audience if I do that.
I guess I'd better start with the house plans.
Maybe tomorrow.
Don't give up yet.
