Heavenly homes......come take a look!

Posted by Mr Wong at 6:02 AM

Happy Wednesday! Glad I prepared this post a few days ago.....think I might have the flu or a virus. Tis the season!  Good day to be home, in bed, to rest and catch up. Be sure to read all about my first ever giveaway on the bottom of this post!  Ever since I can remember, even when I was very young...I loved looking at homes. Big homes, Little homes, as long as they were beautiful. Since I have become an adult my obsession has not waned, I still to this very day adore looking at homes, whether its just a casual drive by, real estate looking, home tours...give me any excuse to look at a beautiful home and I am so there! Over recent years, while we were just starting to plan the building of our second home, I started collecting many images, from books, magazines and the web. I wanted to share some of that collection with you today....would love to know which is your personal favorite. If someone told you that tomorrow you have to move into one of these enchanting abodes, which would be your choice and why? As crazy as it might sound I might have to say that last little "cottage".....it is picture perfect, the style is right, it is historically correct and it has way more character than many many much larger homes. Great things do come in small packages! Enjoy the trip around the block and let me know which you would choose!
