1. Free Wood Textures, 2. window frame, 3. Crochet piles, 4. fireplace

This week we play by theme if you like. I'd love to see what your dream home would look like... So perhaps built a mosaic that gives a peak of how you would like it to look on the inside & outside...
Do you have a fun theme for next month? Don't hesitate to let me know!

My mosaic this week shows more from the inside then the outside. I haven't decided yet if my dream home would be near the beach, in the middle of the woods or in the city. I'm also still undecided on the style. I prefer a modern look but I don't want it to look too clean and designed. You know, those houses where you feel like you're in the local Modern art museum. I prefer a place where you can feel people actually live there. It can be a bit messy and things do not have to be put away all the time. It's OK if magazines lay about, the dishes are in the sink or there is laundry hanging somewhere.
I want my dream home to feel warm and welcome. Therefore it has to have wooden floorboards, lots of light, a fireplace and cozy handmade items. And of course, a large studio for me to mess about in.
We certainly lack a fireplace right now and we don't have wooden floorboards yet (because we're so indecisive) and we have so much stuff that I feel the house is bursting so I'd love to win the lottery and buy my dream home... How about you? :)

If you like to play this week, make your mosaic and add a link to your to your blogpost (NOT your blog please) or Flickr. Click on the button below and fill in your name with the link to your blogpost or Flickr picture. I'll try to pop over to have a look at yours.

To tell you the truth, after living in several houses (in several cities in several countries LOL), I think I am in my dream home. Not because it's perfect home but because it gives me what I want. When we bought this house, more than looking at the house itself, we looked at the garden! LOL how big the garden was! I guess we truly are outdoors people.
If I ever move again it will be to head south, really south, and to a farm.
oeps ... so stressed I forgot all about this is the first of the month wih a theme. Hope you don't mind.
That's Ok, Sandra, I know what stress feels like so no worries & no pressure from me!
Oh yes, Mariana, I forgot to mention a garden & trees (fruit) so that we can grow our own veggies. I do want that too! :)
zo herkenbaar , misschien dromen we in ons binnenste toch allemaal een beetje hetzelfde :-)
so cozy and warm !
i always feel like i might break something when a house is too neat and tidy, that i will get yelled at for even moving something a little or spilling a drop of water. a fireplace would be wonderfu!
Your visions are near to mine!
Cozy and inviting, the special style does not matter so much.
Love your dream home mosaic! Are those your crocheted pieces?!
very warm mosaic! I love it!
Your dream home sounds so lovely Mitsy, Warm, Inviting and relaxed.
I am such a ding-a-ling, I cannot figure out how to make a mosaic on that website yet but maybe I'll figure it out for next month!

maybe a future mosaic could be themed

'a collection of dreams'

Just a thought!
