Summer goal: House Tour.
Where to begin? At the beginning…where else could you begin?
This poor house..it has no idea… weep for it.
But what do you do when you are married to MODERN and you, yourself are ECCLECTIC/COTTAGE/MID-CENTURY/modern…
KWIM?
It was history in the making…heart palpations abounded…
(Super-coolio action shot of Morgan vaulting into the foyer…)
The Kitchen, before the junk arrives….
(Still staged…that’s not our stuff…)
Here is the nice, clutter free staged family room…
Wow… I can’t believe that’s how it used to look…
And the Dining Room…Here’s how it is after I got all up in it’s grill…
Grilling Porch. Didn’t come with the grill. Still waiting for that to happen… and waiting….and waiting…
Wrestle mainia still going strong at The Bold Abode.
The Breakfast Corner Room
And those are all the shots I have before. There’s an upstairs that’s been tortured… but more on that later.
I’m working on a House tour…that’s my goal for this year.
That is, if the monkey’s stay in their cages…
The exterior of your house is so cute! Can’t wait for the BOLD house tour.
Thanks, Suzy! I’m praying I can get this together… The clutter is winning right now…ugh!
to get your monkeys to sit still you will need…. duct tape and a tree.
i love your house- SO cute! you know i love capes! 🙂 yay a home tour!!!
I have both. Thanks for the great idear.
And fingers crossed…My butt is lazy.
I love the small cottage look… but agree, how do you marry the two different styles! I love the front of the house and the large kitchen!
Thanks, Tiffany! I’ll never figure it out… I end up winning most of the time, unfortunately for my hubs…and when I lose, I make him miserable so I end up getting my way anyway. I feel bad for him!
That looks like a house I would so buy! That porch is sweet. I’m headed over to the after…
Awww…thanks, Holly! I do love it here!
i love looking at the way other people’s houses are decorated for a bit of inspiration! Can’t wait to see how the house tour series plays out! 🙂
Thanks, Roanna! It’s never ending!
I love house tours! Maybe you can do a video so we can hear your twang while seeing the hose for the entire Bold experience 🙂
Hmmm… that did cross my mind…
Love that super colio action shot! Can’t wait for the afters … there will be afters, right? Tortured upstairs and all …
🙂

If I can get my lazy rear in gear! I should just go take pics of it all right now and show you how we really live… No. That’s not happening…
meant coolio …
hehehe…
Oh yeah…we will need audio!
Audio? Hmmm… I think I threw out the cassette recorder, TinaLou… hahahaha…
Aw, hell to the no! I hope that wasn’t a zinger directed at me for my advanced age, GwennieLou! Them’s fightin’ words.
I can still pull out a big ole’ can of whoop ass!
Don’t make me come up there.
I was referring to Jill’s comment about hearing your twang and all your southern chaaarm on the VIDEO.
Your time is coming, whippersnapper!
Cassette recorder…indeed!
It’s bearnin’ down on me fast. I tots knew what you were referring to, but I just couldn’t resist! You know I love you, girl!
What? That’s it? You mean I don’t get to talk like Madea anymore or send my flying monkeys? Dang, Slugworth has already left and the Grinch is en route, too,
And when the oompa loompas arrive, just play them a tune on your magic piano and maybe they’ll sing for you. I guess you could put them to work for you. They do have skills and a lovely sense of style
You can zing me anytime, Best laugh of my day!
The love is mutual, G-dawg!
Hmm, I missed the sign in. Maybe you have a point after all .
No one told me it would be quick! xoxo, T.
I was wondering who that anonymous commentor was that seemed to know me so well! Ha! Call off the hounds…. I’m tired and hungry and have a gazillion things to do and I don’t need no more monkeys up in da howse leaving droppings in the den. But, I might take the Oompas cuz they know how to work and make Chocolate…
Your house is too cute! Can’t wait to see your home tour.
And I’m adding my vote for a little video too!
As I told Jillie… the thought did cross my mind..
Thanks, girl!
If you figure out how to get the monkey’s to stay in the cages long enough to clean and take photos, let me know your secret.
~Bliss~
I might have to try the duct tape and tree technique that Cassie suggested…
I’ll keep you posted, ha!
How can you leave us hanging like this? I can’t wait to see more.
Ha! Thanks, Amy… If I can shove all the clutter over and get some photos. Fingers crossed!!!
