Modern Shelves in my Office

Hello there... just a quick update from my last post about my office.

I ended up ordering these two smaller shelf units. 

They were half price of what I had been looking at.

And narrower... which works better with the space.

 I love the barnwood finish and the modern style.

 I will be adding storage bins soon... but for now they have a bit of pretty.

Here is the link if you want to order them.

 $59 from Walmart

Been busy with my job and the girls.

My parents are coming for a visit this weekend.

I am missing them, its been since Christmas.

Hope all is well....Brooke

A Clean, Simple Kitchen

Welcome back my dear readers....

 I haven't shared the kitchen much since we moved into the house...

So today lets take a look around.

Few Last Photos before Moving Day....

It is kind of hard to believe this journey is coming to a close.

In just 5 short days we will sign all the final papers.

And the big moving process will begin!

Before it does... lets take one more look around...

Almost To Close On The New House....

 Hello dear readers...
We will be closing on the house a week from today!
September 25th.
So I wanted to do a quick update today before things get too busy.

I Have A Garden Again-- The Landscape Is In!

Two posts in a row!
I know... it's major!!


But the landscaping was put in this week and I had to share!

It's beautiful this week in Alabama.

Almost Completed Kitchen!

 I honestly don't remember what I shared with you last time...
but so much has changed since then!

 Here is what the kitchen looks like this week!

 We are about three weeks from the big move in day!

  I love how bright the counters and back splashes are!

August House Update....

Okay it is time to get the blog caught up on the new build!

When we last spoke we were bricking the house.

Now all the trim is up and since this picture we have garage doors.

{Color Inspirations} Denim Blues

 So yes, I am starting to find things for the new house.
Today I ordered these lovely drapes from Wayfair after looking online for quite a bit.
I had been inspired by another home's blue drapes
and how they drew so much attention in a neutral room.

Let's Talk About The Brick Color....

Hello again and welcome back!

These past few days have been a whirlwind of design choices.

It has been fun, confusing and time consuming.

 One thing I knew is that I did not want any plain solid colored brick.

So when I saw the "Aspen" with a brown tinted base and smeared grouted accents...

I fell in love.

Ceiling Fans and More Lighting Decisions....

Hello again... more design decisions today.

I went to the lighting center and wow....

There is a mind blowing amount to choose from.

I knew this, but the size of this shop was amazing.

Okay, I am taking risks this time!

I love the three blade fan shown above.

It is 60 inches across and so neat.

I have the girls vote... hope hubby likes it too.

Picking Out Pretty Lighting...

Hello again, and welcome back to Suddenly Southern!

Today I wanted to share a few lighting choices.... 

I love how many wonderful options we all have now a days.....

In the entire house I am doing rubbed bronze/brown metals.

So even if the pics don't show it... it will be in bronze.  

This first is a lantern style and I really like it.
I am thinking of using it over my island.
It is huge, and will make quite a statement.

The Finalized Choices for our New Home....

Welcome back to Suddenly Southern.

If you are new here, we are building a home South of Huntsville Alabama.

This past week we finalized our design choices and I am so excited to share them with you!

 Here is our choices all together.  

I love the soft, comfortable feel of them.  

Hopefully very welcoming.

I am so excited to see the Aspen bricks.

They look old world and aged... love!
