I Haven’t been posting my inspiration Saturday’s because I’ve been afraid to act excited about the prospect of buying a ranch. That’s pretty sad because we actually have an accepted offer and have until December 31st to sell our home here. I feel like I should be excited and planning and having dreams about it. I’ve allowed fear to stifle my happiness and excitement about our dreams that are half way coming true! As soon as we sell our home the ranch is ours!

So, in fearless excitement here are my inspiration ideas this week for our ranch house make over. When we actually get it I’ll post pictures of it. (I’m being brave here, I don’t want to over-do it.)

We will be building a barn/workshop, I LOVE this style.

PS It snows where the ranch is! http://accordingtobraswell.blogspot.com/2013/12/christmas-ideas-images-ii.html

The ranch house has a wrap-around porch, it is going to be a lot of work to get it looking like this. How pretty is this?

I love a farm sink! Throw in a few subway tiles and a punch of yellow? I say Yes, please.

Who doesn’t LOVE a window seat? The ranch house has dormer windows in the two upstairs bedrooms and nothing has been done with them. I’m thinking window seats are a must!

Is it weird to dream about a laundry room? I could wash and dry all day in this place!
