We've done it again!
We have another "model makeover" under our belts. After selling our latest model home, we chose to move into the Chevy Chase and give it the same treatment that we did the Ashland II. It looks FANTASTIC! It has a warm, cozy, sophisticated country look. Jean Ann, the folks at Norwalk, and the project team did a great job updating and decorating this gorgeous home. Here are a few pictures of the transformation. To see it all, you'll have to come out to beautiful Patchen Wilkes and take a look!!!

I'm back!
Dear Gentle Readers, I haven't disappeared off the face of the earth, and the house has kept rolling along despite my lack of documentation on "Polly's House." I was shocked and flattered when I had several folks ask me about the blog in the past couple of weeks. I thought my mom was the only one reading it! I'll be honest...all my creative juices got diverted to making decisions on the house. I loved every minute of it, but they are decisions none the less. Building a house is like putting together a puzzle and every piece that you choose impacts other parts, so I really wanted to be mindful of every choice I made. I tried to make it easy on myself by picking things I loved, but the problem is that I love a lot of different things!
We work with Creative Kitchen and Bath for our bath and kitchen cabinets. Samantha was just THE BEST when it came to helping me all the cabinet choices that we made. My style is a little out of the box, and she helped me find that balance of sticking with what I liked and keeping it from getting out of hand...I can go a little crazy! I might have mentioned before that we have different packages from which to pick options. What I loved about these cabinets is that they are package 1 cabinets (with the exception of the laundry room which are package 2.) How fabulous is that that you can get full overlay maple cabinets, even white painted ones, within the base specs of a home? I thought they turned out great...
Laundry room:
Guest bath:
Gilly's bath:
Garrett's bath:
So as you can see, we're getting to the fun stuff. I'll take the next couple of posts to get you up to speed on what's been going into the house. It's been moving like crazy!
Have a great day and thanks for reading,
Polly
