One of the most asked questions we continuously get is about our covered porch ceilings. We currently have tongue and groove porch ceilings and will be using the same on our new house. We love the look of adding natural wood elements where we can, and porch ceilings are the perfect place for it. It adds a warm authentic look that contrasts well creating great visual appeal.
When we started building our new home, a concrete fireplace was one thing I knew I had to have. I absolutely love adding concrete elements into the interior of a home. Whether around a fireplace or on the countertops, concrete adds a very unique, modern look that I love.
Our current house has a detached garage as you can see in the photo above. This is the first time we’ve had a detached, and I have to say, we’ve really enjoyed it. Many would argue they would only have an attached garage, but I could go either way. I feel like they both have pros and cons. So let’s take a look at each.
To buy it or to DIY it? That is the question. Some would rather save the time and energy, while others would rather save the money. I do think it depends on what it is and really how much money you are actually saving. Also, you must consider how much value is it going to add for all the time and effort you will be putting into it.
Something many may not think about during the building process or remodeling process is sidewalk design. Sidewalks are a great place to get creative and add extra curb appeal to your home.
