We love our bay window in the kitchen but the morning sun is just too much and you can't sit at the table without sweating lol. Plus its faded out my painted walls too. So I'm looking for something along the lines of this....
Because we live in a rural area and have no neighbors we have a very open house. Blinds only in bedrooms and baths. My husband loves it that way. He spends a lot of time sitting in the breakfast area looking out the window watching for wildlife or just the beautiful crops that he has planted.
Our front door is wood with a beautiful glass in the middle with satellite pieces on the side. I would love to be able to open that door and get some light in the front of the house. So I was thinking about a storm door with a full glass. Like this..
Now, I will admit, I am not a decorator nor am I creative. I love to look at other homes and get ideas or have someone give me ideas. So never ask me for my decorating opinion. As I said before we have windows that are open, no blinds or curtains. I would love to have something! My husband says leave them be, but it just looks so PLAIN! So I'm on a hunt for some kind of curtain or drape. Here's what I've found so far. If you have any ideas of a contemporary style please let me know.
We've always planted a garden. Some years it produced enough for us to share. Last year we never got around to it. I've asked for a couple of veggie beds to maybe make it easier and keep the wildlife out. This is what I've been looking at. Nelson could build them but why wait right?
So that's it for the most part. Where oh where should I start first?

One thing at a time. I would start by hanging pictures. It's fairly easy, doesn't take too long and easy to see your handy work and be rewarded every day by seeing what you hung. I just did that last weekend but haven't finished yet. Can't wait to see your house and the progress!
