Interested to see the CasaSugar link! Hope Maizie is on the mend today!
Have a great weekend, Julia!
I don’t know why – but I loved looking at the photos of Sarah Ferguson’s old house. And that blogger’s house? Ooh la la – I want her closet so bad!
Ha! I wonder how many “neighborhood” McMansion B and B’s are gonna pop up.
The only good thing that ever involved a McMansion.
The McMansion story was fascinating. You feel bad for them, but what the hell were they thinking? Soooooooooo out of touch with reality. I want to drag the crying girl by the hair and force her to spend a few nights at a homeless shelter.
Wow! That cottage!!! *le sigh*
Hello,

Funny you mention the shipping containers, that is a post Ive had in the works and just put up. Amazing what some people have done with them.
Love the first and last dining room!
Love Chassity’s house – simply fabulous!
Ooh, you’ve sent me off on a mini world tour of the web, as usual!
I quite like some of the shipping container designs but would be concerned about insulation if living somewhere like London.
Very sad to see Andrew/Sarah’s former home and I’m surprised in that part of England someone hasn’t sorted it out.
And hooray for Maizie!
Love, Love, Love, Maria’s home….go to her site just to feal PEACE. 7,000 square feet isn’t a “McMansion in my book….it’s a Mansion! Will check out the other links and glad Maizie is doing well
