Should we stay or should we go?

It's crunch time. When we bought our home, we knew it would need renovating to make it perfect for our family. But the location, the two plus acres of land, dotted with trees and high on a hill, was the clincher. And as I mentioned in one of my very first posts, the fact that we actually swapped houses with the previous owner meant that the whole move seemed meant to be.<br /><br />Fast forward a few years, and we found quite a few surprises along the way. Water tanks that needed replacing, a leaking pool, non-existent drainage plans, kids falling through the bath surround where the water had rotted the timber.....the list goes on. We've done a heap of work on the place, with a new main bathroom, painting, pool reno, kitchen revamp, but there's a lot more that needs to be done. It's the domino effect - everything we decide to tackle unearths another dozen or so problems that need to be fixed too.<br /><br />My husband has finally cracked. When he announced last week that he thought we should knock the house down and rebuild, you could have blown me over. But it makes sense, as vacant land in our area (which is scarce anyway) is worth at least three times what we paid for our house. And the possibilities.....!!!! I've had my dream home brewing for years now, and it looks a lot like a combination of all of these:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDHIgu2bkNP2fHAbNH1O2x6bles4UDqst7v8G0ZVfP3C75zTgZSvDRmgGrN-78vooi0Am4MUoXd1L_iDYur2-SHpPPrvw8Gc938IijsQNy161Dh_dHSa6R3lta6v9-YSjODeMH2ii3c2M/s1600/arsl01_rose.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="530" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDHIgu2bkNP2fHAbNH1O2x6bles4UDqst7v8G0ZVfP3C75zTgZSvDRmgGrN-78vooi0Am4MUoXd1L_iDYur2-SHpPPrvw8Gc938IijsQNy161Dh_dHSa6R3lta6v9-YSjODeMH2ii3c2M/s640/arsl01_rose.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">love everything....windows, verandahs, the lot</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://rosecorp.net.au/">source</a></span></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwmFVA-MmE5-cE5Vlxp4OzvlKoTd4jxPiQTsLevfnbJ1d1eSqt27kDJ4py6gJpsxfT9HDgmxobwbPAoYCXsCrfeuOvMcKswBEdEOgbnJSf_LdrSfsQCKABYAIp_esWvbXdzzxk9_KJbdQ/s1600/97fb2c61-7357-45ef-bb28-1bfa55cc1219_FS.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwmFVA-MmE5-cE5Vlxp4OzvlKoTd4jxPiQTsLevfnbJ1d1eSqt27kDJ4py6gJpsxfT9HDgmxobwbPAoYCXsCrfeuOvMcKswBEdEOgbnJSf_LdrSfsQCKABYAIp_esWvbXdzzxk9_KJbdQ/s640/97fb2c61-7357-45ef-bb28-1bfa55cc1219_FS.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">not quite the same view as ours, but I do love me a window seat</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://realestate.com.au/">source</a></div><br />These next images are by my favourite architect, W<a href="http://walterbardadesign.com/">alter Barda</a>.

Ok guys, I wonder if I could ask a favour? I'm working on some new pieces for my Etsy shop, and have a few questions for all of you design divas out there.<br /><br />Remember my 'Bouquet in Flow Blue' painting? It's been one of my most popular designs, and I've had a lot of requests for more in this series. So, I have around half a dozen new paintings in the works, but need to decide on a few details before adding them to my shop. Here's a reminder:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjg_KXB76tEOYDPvdOol2B5JcR85SY7eUd-PoMOISm1FTPoOqlOQgN1ATbqf-ce5lsbtBnNVp5aO1qPjcjL0fhvj7FDYyMTnYV5yW08E9EeWc84KxUggTePXKI7eiuovMofDf8RICun6TE/s1600/fuze+bouquet+in+flow+blue+watermarked+resize.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjg_KXB76tEOYDPvdOol2B5JcR85SY7eUd-PoMOISm1FTPoOqlOQgN1ATbqf-ce5lsbtBnNVp5aO1qPjcjL0fhvj7FDYyMTnYV5yW08E9EeWc84KxUggTePXKI7eiuovMofDf8RICun6TE/s1600/fuze+bouquet+in+flow+blue+watermarked+resize.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #3d85c6;">'Bouquet in Flow Blue'</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #3d85c6;">available here</span></div><br /><br />So, my questions are: would you like to see more variety in flower colours in this series? Or different blue and white china, different flowers, but all in the same colour? Or maybe both? I'm leaning towards both at the moment. I've just finished one new blue and white vase, but haven't added the bouquet yet. Here's a mock-up of how some roses and peonies in orange would look:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdHYcXea69tG1Q6vGAWovZSM3NJc5ReWbuumVDbDqHnrQK8vaQDKc9rxJEHr54_JyuU5XemfafBqa1qRRr2ltSq1QJ9-n3iRlVJxaTVBWKCfjEwFIz8A54fr0Xq9tITkHQ1gGr1-O8Dg4/s1600/blue+willow+bouquet+watermarked.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdHYcXea69tG1Q6vGAWovZSM3NJc5ReWbuumVDbDqHnrQK8vaQDKc9rxJEHr54_JyuU5XemfafBqa1qRRr2ltSq1QJ9-n3iRlVJxaTVBWKCfjEwFIz8A54fr0Xq9tITkHQ1gGr1-O8Dg4/s640/blue+willow+bouquet+watermarked.jpg" width="540" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e69138;">'Blue Willow Bouquet'</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e69138;">a work in progress!</span></div><br /><br /><br />Any and all suggestions will be gratefully received. I've already had some lovely readers offer advice, which I've taken on board, so you'll be seeing some hydrangeas (thanks <a href="http://thewhiteshed.blogspot.com/">Letitia</a>), orange flowers as requested by <a href="http://verandahhouse.blogspot.com/">Judy</a>, and more 'wild' offerings, thanks to <a href="http://tranquiltownhouse.blogspot.com/">Kerry</a>!<br /><br />So, it's over to you guys.

Can't wait to hear your thoughts!<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/85794/shatay01/57292ae3db79c6d939a1f2a85508a076.png" style="background: transparent; border: 0 !important;" /></a>
