I was reading Cote De Texas' blog today and she was talking about builders thinking they can design...Our house was a spec house that we bought because it was the only thing to buy! The realtor took me to maybe five-six houses over a period of two days and at the end of day two she asked me which one I wanted to bid on! The market was so crazy I had to make a bid without my husband even seeing the house! Lucky us we won the bidding "war".
The builders were a father-son act who argued with each other endlessly and it looks like they made-up by letting each other chose a different style when and where ever they wanted. Giving us a house with a colonial brick front complete with a phony victorian glass front door
Craftsman kitchen cabinets....(geez, do you think they coulda put a few more on this wall?)
Which I'm sure you've noticed I want to paint white!
and a hokey lodgey looking fireplace that looks like they dug up rocks from the yard to build. Our daughter is afraid its going to fall off the wall its so bad! Hmm
maybe I should shoot one of the deer that eat our flowers and mount its cute little
head over the fireplace. Just kidding they are cute so long as they stay out of my
yard.
