Open House Party

Welcome to the Open House Party.
Thank you for visiting and I am looking forward to seeing what you have to share this week.
The link to join the party is at the bottom of this post.
Today we will be touring the gorgeous home of Des @  Peeking Thru The Sunflowers.  Her home was  featured last year in Midwest Living and this month in BHG Christmas Ideas magazine.  Just wait until you see these pictures!
Des and her husband live in a renovated 1870 stone schoolhouse.  They have replaced the floors, removed walls and remodeled the kitchen.   Lets take a tour of this fabulous home and I will also show you some of the pictures from the BHG magazine article.
I love the French style armoires.

Teddy thought his new bed should match the big bed.  How cute is this!!
Now for the Christmas Pictures

  19. Sherry, thanks for introducing us to this beautiful blog and home. Love the French armoires and the way she has showcased her treasures within. Thanks for hosting. I'm off to visit Des.

  29. Hi Sherry. thank you for stopping by my blog and following! Great to have you. It encouraged me to do a post on my own home for today's party. A funny one about what the dogs thought of my art! The home you shared with us today is de lovely and it doesn't take me very long to fall in love with any armoire!

    No pressure if I don't fit your reader's style. I just thought I would offer! Thanks for hosting another link party!

  38. Sherry, I'm so late, late, late to this party–but I wanted to join, even if I'm late! I've re-done my guest room with new fabrics. I've been sewing up a storm!

    Thank you so much for hosting. Being featured by you last week was just wonderful! Now I need to go visit the owner of this week's gorgeous home. You find the most lovely spaces!

    Hope you're having a great week. Thanks again for everything.

  40. I know you said not to leave comments here :-), but I just had to! That home is beyond incredible and that kitchen had me drooling. So sorry I'm late linking up, I have 2 sick kiddos on my hands! But thanks so much for hosting us and sharing that lovely home this week.
