My home March 15, 2007

Whenever I read home magazines I can’t help but imagine what my future house would look like. What drapes I’d use for the master bedroom, for the sala, for the dining, basta everything. I think of what print I’d choose for my plates, bowls, glasses, platters, etc. I want a master bedroom that’s big. Not huge, but big enough. I don’t want a TV in front of my bed; I’d probably want a little alcove by the window where I’d have a sofa or a love seat then I’d place the TV there; I’d also love a bay window. I’d have a bookshelf with all my romance novels and maybe a few other books as well; like coffee table books maybe — but I’d probably put them in the living room so that guests will have something look at. I want to host brunches & luncheons with my best girlfriends and I want to cook dinner for a true blue party for my friends. I’d want my kitchen to be up to date with the latest ‘kitchen stuff’ that I can have. I want an oven that I can understand as I would want to try baking something other than chocolate chip cookies. I want to make pies; all kinds of them! Yes, including the dessert kind. Oh, and I want a nice, spacious bathroom too. That’s one of my pet peeves whenever we go out of town or stay in another person’s house where I have to use the bathroom. I’m really choosy when it comes to bathrooms. I never, ever want the shower to be ‘just there’ with the rest of the banyo; I want it separated, I mean it has to have like a, what, divider? between the toilet and the shower? Or maybe just put in a shower that are enclosed in glass that has a door; something like that. I also want a separate room for the computer; it’ll be like a mini office where all my artsy stuff would be kept also; like pretty paper for scrapbooking; scissors, tape, bond paper, ink, stapler — the usual office stuff because I’d need them eventually. I want this room to be technologically advanced, haha! complete with scanner, copier, fax machine, printer; but I can probably get one machine that can do all of this.

This is the reason why I love playing Sims so much! I have a family that I maintain but usually I have this one other character that I just build houses for. I remodel, rebuild, then put in furniture; I love it! I think I thought of becoming an interior designer once or an architect; but I can’t draw to save my life! And to think I’m left-handed — you know what they say about left-handed people being artistic, etc, etc. I’m still thinking of other ideas I can put in my house; I’ll just add stuff as I go along.

Sample pictures that I got on the internet; not exactly what I really want but I can still do some rearranging (”,)

• Master bedroom: Something like this; but I’d probably want the door to the bathroom on the other side; haha I don’t know. My imagination is running wild with the things I wanna do to this room!

• Master bathroom: Not quite like this but something similar. I’d want it to be spacious enough so that 2 people can go about their business without having to bump into each other. And I’d want a shower and a tub.

 

• For the home office, I want somthing really bright and spacious as the 1st photo but I think I want to change the desk to something more like the 2nd photo.

• The kitchen would be contemporary. Very sleek and not much design or print.
