The Parade Of Homes Tour






For those of you who have never visited my blog, and for those who already have, let me take a moment to say HELLO and WELCOME to Home #30 on the Parade Of Homes Tour.



A HUGE thank you goes out to Toni, our beautiful and creative genious for the current Parade Of Homes tour. If you click on the above button, you will be navigated to the very beginning of the tour, which began on May 1st. There are so many talented women participating in the Parade, so be sure to sit down and relax and enjoy their gorgeous homes.


Onwards now to our quaint cottage – a small Cape Cod home nestled on a street with other pretty New England style homes. We had always dreamed of living on this street and when a home became available, and the model we liked the most, we sold our other home and moved in. The home had been neglected and there was tons of work to be done. Over time, the cottage has taken on small transformations – and large ones, like the kitchen remodel and the half bath redo. Though there are still projects yet to do, I will share with you the house – the presentable rooms (smile) – for now.
