HEY k r i s t i n e: masters of our space

House woes & highlights.. Why does it seem to be a speed build and then come to the boring slow pace that makes me want to jump in and build myself a house. It's picking up pace.. until the rain comes and then we wait a little more.. but I am still eager and excited!

I am impressed by the lessons I've learned and the empowerment I've gained while building a home. It has taught me a great deal of patience (go figure) and also about the value a home is to us. It means everthing to me to have "my own" space, to create memories, settle in and build strong traditions. I can't quite explain it but some may know this feeling I feel, that I am not quite settled in a rental home or a space that hasn't been fully manipulated by the dwellers hands.. I thrive where my hands have had there handy work. Here is where I want to teach my children the values I hold so dear. In this space behind these walls we build, all kinds of wonderful will happen and for that I feel a great sense of fulfillment. I want to carry on all the good that I learn and enrich the lives of my little Hammons for the better. I am the master of my space.
Ah hah! Now there's a closer account of how I've been feeling..(I am enjoying our life where we are but in "my own" place, it will be the bees knees you see) & it feels good to let that sentiment out. I can hardly wait! but I'll wait! Take your time and do it right mr. builder, we appreciate all your hard work & listening to me.

Here is some more of my designing process..

Hardwood Bargains got me some samples.. Kane carpets sent them all! Choosing theatre & game room..

For a small and sweet space..

Hardwood Bargains has been a dream so far to work with.. We were intialy only getting our wood floors from them but now they have ordered in the carpets we liked and have accomodated our need and likes with such finesse. Ask for Kurt. He is a knowledge genius when it comes to wood floors.
