dream home

The other day Steven and I started talking about what our dream homes would look like.... you know the top essentials. I must admit I have a long list for what I want, but I blame it on having thought about my dream home since forever. I think it's the HGTV guru in me. I get so many ideas from that tv network and I love a good house make-over or open house. :)
So here are some things on my list of my dream home:

1. a great space in the back.
something some what large for hosting.
something comfortable and welcoming
something maybe with a view?






2. a front porch.
one thing i love about jacksonville houses are their porches. i'd love nothing more than a front porch to decorate for holidays and enjoy with a good book in the spring :)




3. lots of room for my books + a book nook
i love books too much i'm sure, but i want a room (or just a wall) just for them. i also want a comfy place (or window seat) as my place to enjoy them.









4. a craft room
magic.
i am sooooooo sick of having my crafts invade my bedroom, making it look so cluttered. i hate clutter




5. lots of windows and natural light






6. a big and beautiful kitchen
i'm not a big fan of cooking (although I hope that will one day change) but for some reason the kitchen is always a big seller for me. i just love kitchens. i want a big one with lots of light. maybe then i'll want to be in it more to cook?

What would your dream house look like?? Please share!
