Never has looked good to me, but I know that sometimes there's not another practical place to have it. It's just too "front and center" for me, and I like the TV to be an afterthought or out of sight addition.<br />Leslie Anne Tarabellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02196752637270349443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-67956409862021642542013-10-27T14:41:57.388-04:002013-10-27T14:41:57.388-04:00I loved going to Homearama when we lived in VA. ...I loved going to Homearama when we lived in VA. Our little AZ town doesn't have one and I sure do miss it. Loved both of these homes. I am with you on a 1st floor Master - for me it's a total deal breaker - unless the house is a ranch, of course (& I do love a nice ranch).

Creepy! I couldn't go to sleep in that bed. You are right about the fireplaces. Especially in the second one.

They usually feature 10 homes, but a few years ago they actually did 20! The admission price is $10, which I feel is pretty reasonable for getting to ogle at so many new homes! A different local interior designer does each one, so the different homes have very different looks.melkaywinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11951381480560899311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-63168734227111514382013-10-26T14:30:56.696-04:002013-10-26T14:30:56.696-04:00Thanks again for the additional tours, and for add...Thanks again for the additional tours, and for addressing my question about the garages.

I've been to many Parade of Homes in my own city and there's signs everywhere saying no photography is allowed. Builders and interior designers feel strongly that outside photos infringe on their intellectual property. I don't know if they're overly concerned about Joe Homeowner, but possibly another builder or designer ripping off their ideas. I'm curious what you think about that.Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09897634694468602367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-45511901723953366062013-10-25T14:06:47.824-04:002013-10-25T14:06:47.824-04:00All of the houses are beautiful- hard to pick a fa...All of the houses are beautiful- hard to pick a favorite!House Envyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05504565768786792300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-36589894564669367842013-10-25T13:50:30.740-04:002013-10-25T13:50:30.740-04:00I am so glad you love the Farmhouse Redux!

The spaces are just too much and too trendy to do it all in that style! And the first house I liked the outside but inside way too many modern elements again. What was up with the silver harsh looking door handles? Yuck. And the lights in the kitchen. I am not really into modern anyway but the kitchen with a switch of the lights and silver pulls would be better. House one--too much modern for the style of home. House two--WAY too much industail farmhouse! It should be in accent pieces and not entire rooms! Thanks for the tours! I would love to do this.
