You've done a wonderful job with your home. The minute we pulled into your driveway, I knew it was perfect for my blog. I hope we see each other again soon. We'll let you know when we have the grand opening of our new location. Till then, you can stop by our pop up shop and meet my son-in-law.Dana@Mid2Modhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03055460107477850683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9087940973013594269.post-61492276374718350312013-07-15T14:35:07.673-05:002013-07-15T14:35:07.673-05:00Hi Dana!!!

It has been a complete work in progress and a lot of DIY projects. The kind words totally made my day and we are so lucky to have Mid 2 Mod in Dallas!!!

Thought about making a slatted trellis on the west side of my place to block the sun.

I'm such a weirdo that I would have said no...because I didn't have time to go out with a pair of tweezers and pluck every stray leaf and blade of grass. I try to tell myself I'm just a neurotic perfectionist, but my daughter keeps telling me it's waaay more serious than that...:)<br /><br />I can't believe I agreed to the Houzz feature. A couple of years ago, HGTV wanted to use my main house in an episode of Rate My Space as an inspiration home, and I said no, because it threw me into such a tizzy that I had 3 legal sheets of all the things I would need to do to the house before filming. I think I'm mellowing. In one of the Houzz shots, you could see a sliver of the slats and a little hint of my orange sheets in one shot of the end of my bed, and I didn't stroke out.Dana@Mid2Modhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03055460107477850683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9087940973013594269.post-53295681744061928702013-07-15T08:53:55.031-05:002013-07-15T08:53:55.031-05:00Cute house, I love the slatted details and the pla...Cute house, I love the slatted details and the planters.Mad For Modhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02426614584996572445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9087940973013594269.post-49688493486475547642013-07-15T08:16:55.753-05:002013-07-15T08:16:55.753-05:00That is an adorable house, too bad we couldn't...That is an adorable house, too bad we couldn't see the inside.
