Dream Home on HGTV 2009

The Best of HGTV Dream Home 2009. I selected a few pictures but you can find lots more here.






Those candles are way too close to the curtains!

















Love those lamps with the candles inside.

Inside a Castle.

I can't believe this is the inside of an 18th century castle! I expected it to be full of antiques and regal furniture. New Wardour Castle is located in Wiltshire, England. The castle was completed in 1776, with additional buildings being added in the 1970s-1980s. Then it became a private school. In recent years, the building has been turned into luxury apartments.

Minimalist castle. See for yourself!

May I use your restroom?

But of course! Pick the one you like best!

Good, beautiful Sunday morning to everyone! It's a lovely get out and enjoy the sun day (pun not intended!) here in Brazil. But before putting your play clothes on, have a look at these bathrooms!



Love the soft green on the walls, and those windows too, though I think I'd hang some white curtains. If the bathroom is on a top floor then maybe I wouldn't... but I'd always think there's someone peeping in! So hand me those curtains!



I like marble especially in the kitchen and bathroom, but in this picture I think it's a bit too much. Doesn't it look like lots of cobwebs all over the walls and floor?






Love the soft aquagreen colour of the bathtub.



Curtains here. Well done!


Don't know about those little blue tiles. The overall effect is nice. But they do remind me when I used to cut my toes with them in those swimming pools when I was a kid.












It's a good idea (if your bathroom is big enough!) to adapt a dresser for your bathroom. Two sinks and plenty of storage room.



I like the way they made a round wall for the shower base. I think I've only seen them square so this makes a nice change.





Ok, now yes you can run outside and have a wonderful day!
