With our house contest prize money, we went ahead and ordered blinds for the entire house. We ended up getting the bottom-up/ top-down cellular shades and LOVE them. They let in just enough light too and don't cover up the trim. I'm sure the neighbors will miss watching Greg play the Wii though.
Here are a couple shots of our built-in desk off of the kitchen. We are now on the hunt for the perfect desk chair. Greg's also making some kind of cabinet on casters to hide the printer and cords.
G also built a very Scandinavian-looking cabinet to house all the TV stuff.

As soon as it gets warmer, door building begins. G's making 11 doors and we just got our hardware in. So pretty...
After my last blog post, something pretty cool happened. Someone in Raleigh stumbled across our blog and contacted us about having Greg build a breakfast nook similar to the one he had just done for us. Here is a picture of it all finished. I think they were happy with it and we met some really nice people along the way.

There is nothing random about what you guys have done here!
Your house is amazing and inspiring, I have been lusting after ever since I stumbled across your blog a few weeks back.
I am in Australia and our houses are pathetic compared to that of the states. One day....I keep telling myself and I am going to design my own similar house :).
Hope you both have wonderful times there!
Cheers

Thanks so much. Looking forward to it all being finished though. These 2 years have been reeeeeally long.
Also, someone else had left a sweet comment and somehow I deleted it by mistake instead of posting it. We did come up with the design with the help from an amazing architect. We looked over lots of old Sears bungalow kit homes and floorplans and worked with him. He got it perfect! Thanks for the nice words about Ferlin too. :)
