Note: I’ll be adding an inspiration post tomorrow taken from one of the tours today! She’s given me permission to use her photos and I’ll be adding a few more of my own so you get a better idea. I’m so excited as I now have a paint color for our family room! We’re still working on the floor plan so it’s gonna be a while yet for our new home to be built. So come back tomorrow for another visit to see my inspiration!

Oh! I want to take a bath in that corner tub. (sigh)

Gray Matters said...

Such a beautiful home - I love the staircase and am hoping to do something similar in our new home.

Lezlie said...

Very nice home! Congrats on the sale.

Liz said...

Whoa, gorgeous house Debbie! We're all looking forward to seeing your new house! I loved the 'rare snow' picture. Too funny :)

Karyn said...

My fav so far on the House Tour- must have been hard to leave. Congrats on the sale!

Robin said...

Hey Debby, thanks for stopping by my house tour and for your lovely comments. I love the built-ins in your old family room - plenty of room for books!

Darla @ UltraBeautyBoutique said...

I love the fireplace with the bookshelves!

Rhoda @ Southern Hospitality said...

HI, Debbie, thanks for stopping by my bedroom tour & for the very nice comments! I'm so glad you found a paint color you liked, I love to steal ideas on paint colors myself. That way you can see how they really look up on the walls.

Your TX home is just gorgeous! So I guess you've moved on to another house now & get to decorate all over again. That's fun! I'm meeting all sorts of new girls on this home tour.

I'm not sure I could have left a house like that. It is beautiful.

The Scarlett Rose Garden said...

Gotta love a red door~

Jaelou said...

Aw, I hope you aren't sad about leaving your house. It was beautiful. It looked stunning in the snow... too bad it was so rare. I love the entry way.

Laura @ the shorehouse. said...

What a lovely tour (and great choice on the door color!). I actually love that little piece against the wall in the foyer (under the horizontal artwork). Leave it to me to pick out something like that among all the gorgeous photos, LOL! I think it's because I'm looking for a small entry piece with storage so my eye is drawn to it.

I'm glad Julia linked us together on this tour!

Sandy said...

wow I am bookmarking this site! I don't have time now but I'll be back, it looks so cool......

and what a great idea, the artist giveaway.

Your home in Texas is lovely! Guess you hated to move???

You have excellent taste...so I'm sure your new home is wonderful too!
