#buildanewhousewitholdthings

I'm looking forward to speaking to @letteredcottage group tomorrow night about architectural finds and how to use them in your home! It's one of my favorite subjects and I haven't had any reason to talk about it lately! I'm always on the hunt, collecting and finding new ways to #buildanewhousewitholdthings. ⠀ *⠀ Layla was one of my first clients to help find pieces several years ago! That door I found her still haunts me. Why didn't I keep it for myself? ⠀ *⠀ This picture was from when @thistlewood came over one day soon after we moved in. I filled in under that table with my collection of corbels right before she walked in the door! It's completely different now with a card catalog in that spot stacked with encyclopedic reports from the Alabama and around the south that date from back in the late 1800's! #isaveoldthings⠀ *⠀ We might talk about @HGTV's Beach Flip and a little jewelry, too! I'm so looking forward to it!

We’ve been in this house for 3 years! Sometimes it feels like months and sometimes forever. I’ve got the itch, though. I’m ready to #buildanewhousewitholdthings!

This picture was taken two years ago. I had just gotten home from filming and renovating a house for Beach Flip on #HGTV. Our personal home was close to being finished. I left it for 6 weeks with very limited access to my builder. I've loved these particular doors for years and when I went to pick doors for #moonglowlake, I saw these and knew I had to use them somewhere. This is the door to the master bath. They are oversized, elaborate and over the top, but that's what I love about building my own home, I can do what I love and make it work for me. We did have to make the doorway bigger, which meant Connor's closet had to shrink. 😉 I never regret using them in this space. From every angle, open or closed they are perfect. I'm self-taught when it comes to interior design. We've built 8 houses and learned something from each one. I like the process. #buildanewhousewitholdthings

He wanted rustic. He got it! Patio at my husband's office where he will hold bible study each Thursday night. We used reclaimed wood from a whisky distillery. The cut side is on the walls and the natural side on the ceiling. I can't wait for this entire office space to be finished. It's going to be a show stopper! Just wait until you see that view! #buildanewhousewitholdthings #battle #lucysinspiredlifestyle (at Highpointe Properties)

Morning inspiration from @cityfarmhouse. Those flag banners are one of my favorite things Kim has done in the many houses she's designed! Wouldn't they be perfect for #cabinonthecahaba #onthehunt #buildanewhousewitholdthings

I finally got these lights hung in my workspace. They make a huge difference in the light in there.....not to mention they are super cool. I can't even remember when I bought these, but they've been floating from house to house waiting on the perfect spot. If you know me, you know I love lighting and the history. I can't for the life of me remember what these globes are called, but the glass is made to disperse light in every direction. My workspace needs a major overhaul and that might just happen this weekend. #moonglowlake #buildanewhousewitholdthings #lucysigsdesign #isaveoldthings #industrialdesign

This bathroom has never really been finished. The mirror and light have been temporary for over a year! I bought a dark gray paint last week and am thinking of painting the room dark, but I want to do antique brass lighting. Do you think that's crazy with that super industrial faucet? Maybe I can have an industrial light built because I can't find anything worth having. I also got three @ashleywoodsonbailey prints and I can't wait to hang them in there. I want to cover the walls with dark images that create a really moody space. Everyone wants a moody powder room, right? 📷: @thistlewood #moonglowlake #buildanewhousewitholdthings

One big open room. Open concept to the max. Natural light wall to wall. All of this equals minimal places to hang ANYTHING. But, those gold Mercury shades on those pendants are possibly my favorite thing in this entire big open space. #moonglowlake #isaveoldthings #buildanewhousewitholdthings
