Have fun with this colorful indoor teepee

I remember when my kids were young, how they loved to make indoor "forts!"  Take a look at this weekend project that involves no sewing...

Wouldn't it be fun to read books, play with your toys (for the young at heart), or have an indoor sleepover inside this?  Here's what it looks like with Christmas lights strung inside the teepee.

Here's a link to making this...

The Handmade Home

I have a cute listing in Moberly with a similar idea...a "book nook!" 

Here's how the owner transformed a simple closet into a fun kids' corner...

I hope this spurs new ideas for you and your family!

Country at Heart?

I meet so many people who want a place in the country, but for some reason can't find what they are looking for.  Often times it's price related!  Let's face it, there's only so much of America that is available, and they aren't making any more.  It makes rural properties more of a commodity.

Well, check out this recently transformed home...

It's got a huge backyard with views of country in back.  Plenty of room for the kiddos to play...room for a large garden, and whatever you'd like to do (well almost!).

One of my favorite rooms is the kitchen...it's one of the largest kitchens I've seen in this price range.  Room for all the furniture you'd dream of putting there.  I'd probably have a little "den" setup here...or maybe a spot for the kids to do their homework, where you could keep an eye on them.  What would you do with all this space?

And stainless steel appliances are included!

My other favorite room is the master bedroom...you could change your bedroom furniture around on all the walls!  It's HUGE!  Plus a very large walk in closet.  And did I forget to mention the nicely refinished wood floors?  Immaculate!

Here's a floor plan image of the main level, the office could be a small bedroom if you'd like. Upstairs are two bedrooms and another bathroom.

 Here's the transformed bathroom.  A nice cedar lined linen closet too...

The living room ...

Thanks for stopping by!

Love all that natural light...

Oh...do you love those "older" homes all fixed up?  Well, check this one out...

It's had a facelift on the inside with new floors, walls, ceilings...
Here's what greets you when you first walk in...

 Then the dining room is next

This set of windows really makes the rooms come "alive!"

 Love the quaint kitchen which opens up to the rest of the house as well as the back deck.

Here's the downstairs master bedroom with lots of light.

Upstairs there are two bedrooms with dormer style ceilings...both have good sized walk in closets!

What little girl wouldn't love this window seat in her room? (and storage cubbies under the pillows)

This main level office area with stairs to the upper level.

This is the entrance to what the owner's call the "book nook."

Here's what's inside at the top of the stairs...

A great area to relax and watch the family fun from the back deck...
