I swear the outside of the house is an extension of the garden! So it shouldn't have to match the inside, it should match the grounds. Or so that is what I am arguing! lol :rolleyes:

I used to love a classic home, but as I get more into gardening and chickens, I can appreciate whimsical and fun aspects..I told a friend the other day who is thinking of having a chicken coop, "It doesn't have to be classy, it's supposed to be tacky so make it over the top!"

My husband and I love home improvement projects, and we love to do it on a budget! We redid that green room on $1000, including the flooring, furniture, and fixtures!

I LOVE it! Green is my favorite color and it's hard to go TOO bold for me! Take a look at this family room we made over to our liking in the 1950's country house we bought last year. You should hear my parents tell how I ruined the place!
