One of my fav exterior detail shots...EVER!
Want to know what I've been up to...oh the last 5 months or so?? Well, for the most part I've been at this home, and I think it's been time well spent, don't you think?
This was one of our pre-sold homes, with great new homeowners, in a great neighborhood. I will post more pics of this home in my next blog (as well as finished pics of Lot 2 Amesley Manor!) but for now I wanted to give you some great detail shots of this home and hope it explains why I might have been too busy to blog the past few months! I hope to get back to blogging weekly now! I have a couple of new projects that are progressing nicely and it's time to start showing them off!
Gotta love a mustache curl light! I always say that the exterior lighting on the home is like jewelry...the finishing touch that just gives a home the ummph it is lacking...take away this light and I would have come close, but the home would have been missing soooo much flair!
Exterior Iron Entry Door...I had the pattern of the door match the exterior light pattern! Details, Details! tsk tsk!
Signature Sugg Look! Copper Sink, Napoleon Granite, Bronze Faucets...tile backsplashes...never gets old!
The homeowner's daughter is one lucky little girl and is already the most popular girl in the neighborhood! Her room features a round sitting room off of her suite and looks out unto the front yard...we called it Rapuzel's Tower! It also had a lookout down into the entry hall, so we installed some cute shutter doors to give her a little privacy when she is doing top-secret girl things...like mani/pedi's with all her new girlfriends!
A glass etched Laundry door is beautiful when light from outside shines from behind...what a beautiful glow! The lady of the house thinks Laundry=Luxury in this home! Why not?
Another great feature...a cubby for each of the kiddos! LOVE how well these turned out!
Another great feature I love? The stained wood used in the home...the mantels, the porch ceilings...and the stairs! They really turned out fantastic and gave the home a warmer, more cozy feel. I love exposed, stained wood!
The. Stair. Rails. Need I say more? I am totally crushing on this rail pattern right now. You actually might get sick of seeing it. But I promise to finish it in different colors until I move unto a new obsession!
ROCK! Another Sugg signature! If you don't believe that, go check out 1305 Layman Drive! Rock in this home was used on the fireplaces, and the colors of the rock blended perfectly with the other natural stone and masonry used on the home.
Cabinets...prob always sets the tone for every home imo. The glaze really shows up well on the buttercream, giving it a great old world touch!
Metallic Glass Tile! Need I say more??
Big Copper Sinks in the Kitchen. Again I think they add warmth and age to a new home. Kinda like you moved into a beautiful older restored home...except I do all the work instead of you!lol
Great closeup of the granite used throughout the home...I think it is really important to pull your color palate from the colors of the natural textiles used in the home...this is a color I will go to over and over and over...I love light countertops! They really just brighten up a space...and hide dust! ;-)
Had to stick another pic of the cabinets in this post! I'm a sucker for a buttercream distressed cabinet!
Stained floors! Turned out Ah-Mazing if I do say so myself! Concrete floor staining is hard and tricky work! You never know what you are going to turn out with! I was blessed these were a perfect compliment to the home!
Prep sink in the kitchen...def needed with this busy family! Love the details on the handles of the faucet! Love how the dark copper and faucet finish bring out the spots in the granite! This homeowner liked bright colors, so I needed some dark to place in areas for contrast.
Lighting. Traditional lighting was used in this home...isn't this a neat shot?
Hope you like it! Have a great weekend!
