I definitely miss the creative and obtainable DIY and decorating that some of their past programming would offer. My fingers are crossed that they bring in some fresh ideas and talent, or even bring back some of their seasoned designers with new shows. <br /><br />xoxo!IHeart Organizinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05084013302005288836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-65911117102592454672016-12-28T15:42:48.674-06:002016-12-28T15:42:48.674-06:00Thank you so much MomOf5!

There wasn't a lot of cohesion, but it was still really interesting and a fun to see an HGTV's Dream Home in person. There were a lot of individual elements that stood out to me, and I know that they were trying to put some variety in all of the spaces to offer a little something for everyone. <br /><br />JenIHeart Organizinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05084013302005288836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-35309518202534201412016-12-28T15:34:11.583-06:002016-12-28T15:34:11.583-06:00That's so sweet Kristine, Sarah is amazing!

I am not a fan of the home, though, because as others have said it has too many competing designs. The ceiling in the living room is gorgeous and fits with the island vibe. But the chandelier does not go at all in that room because it is far too dressy. In fact, I do not like most of the light fixtures in the house. The master suite is my favorite.<br /><br />A few months ago I cut back my cable to "basic" and thought that I'd miss HGTV. But I don't miss it at all and this house confirms my view. To me HGTV has lost its way with too many repeats and not much decorating for real people.Barbara M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06438114347870523265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-58241415642265368852016-12-25T23:41:32.885-06:002016-12-25T23:41:32.885-06:00Did you take those pictures?

I am so...Thank you so much for the comment Nevenka. I am sorry I have let you down lately; we definitely have a few different spaces in progress with mini makeovers and updates, plus we are trying to finish the big kitchen/living/dining renovation still two years later. It's been a lot, and just as it has been hard on us at times, I know that you guys feel it too. Some things have been out of our control, and other times we just work on what we can when we can based on our schedule, budget and current family priorities. All of those posts you mentioned are coming, I apologize for the delays, I wish I could elaborate more but know your comment is appreciated and I will keep doing what I can. 2016 sort of felt like our year to step back, learn from the mistakes we made rushing decisions and content for the blog, and work on evolving our spaces instead of knocking out room reveals. In 2017 I hope to maintain that mentality but find a way to bring more consistent and fresh content. I love to blog and love my readers and hope that always remains obvious. <br /><br />In the meantime, the blog is always going to be a mix of our home improvements, featured spaces from others and general chit chat as it relates to my life or our home. I personally walked through this HGTV home and although it is not all me or even how I would have personally designed it, this is my place to share these experiences and also reflect on what caught my eye and why. <br /><br />I appreciate you sticking around and checking in, it is clear that you have been invested in our projects and story. Truly, I don't take that for granted. <br /><br />Merry Christmas,<br />Jen<br />IHeart Organizinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05084013302005288836noreply@blogger.com
