Heaven in a Heartbeat.....

I. Am. In. Love.

This is a stunning 4046 sqft. Colonial style house in Fayetteville, TN. Built in the late 1800's this four bed, 3.5 bath, sitting on 43.540 stunning acres, is my living dream come to life....but that's not all, the one thing that makes my heart float, is that wonderful, perfect, dream-worthy wrap around porch...oh.my.gosh.

A house ready for a home, full of dreams, possibilities, and a future....just look at that gorgeous kitchen (though I'd seriously be tempted to paint it duck egg blue!!) and those huge old wood floors, beautiful...

Uh oh, I think I may get addicted to searching real estate now!!

Summer in the City!!

Over the past few days it's been way too hot in NYC, and thank you to the wonders of A/C I'm just managing to struggle through it! However, there is a part of me that finds the heat, crowded parks, the kids playing in water fountains, buzz of this steaming city, and yes - even its smells!! somewhat charming.... there's nowhere else quite like it.....

So I started to cruise the wonders of flickr, and found myself attracted to some wonderful photography and some gorgeous porches.... I do wish I had my own porch to relax on - but even just looking at them gave me a breath of fresh air. Here are some of my favorites - crispy, fresh, bright, clean, vintage and shabby chic....and one hot little flower!!
