List #4: Dream House
Thursday, August 20, 2009 About 3 times a year, our state’s Mega-Millions lottery soars to the blue zillions. That’s when Mr. Man will declare “You can’t win if you don’t play” as he hands over $5 worth of quick picks. Oh he’s so right… And a mere smidgeon of tomorrow’s $200,000,000 lottery jackpot could easily fund my dream house. What’s on my dream house wish list?
Architectural interest throughout, soaring ceilings, handsome materials — a laKeith Summerour or Bill Ingram
A Miles Reddish striking front door and entry
Art studio outback just like Darryl Carter’s
Music room for Mr. Man and my girls complete with a badass blue piano, several Martin guitars, and a tamborine for tone-deaf me
Windsor Smith’s teen hangout / playroom

A drop-dead delicious Kay Douglass-like kitchen
A dreamy bedroom with beams above
{ I’m betting these bedroom photos are from my must read The Daily Bedblog }
Gobs and gobs of cubic feet for storage with über-anal organizational systems
It’s blogger-versary week here at eye spy! And the celebration features one of my favorite activities — list-making. Okay, I dashed off my list quickly. What did I omit? What’s on your dream house list?

Hmmm... I will PM you my news...
i want the turn of the century library i saw at an estate sale with the reading nook and fireplace. many many fireplaces. lots of windows and more walls for kick ass framing. lots of high end wood. recycled barn/factory wood. heck, maybe convert a big old building.
What a fun idea -- how to decorate if you had the lucky lottery
ticket! I think I would steal your list if the winner were me!
The first bedroom photo is so LUSTY. My oh my. Makes you jump
into fantasies....
You go, Beck! Fantasize on!
