When a project comes to an end, it's always bitter sweet for me. I love my work and my clients, so it's hard to say "good-bye". Summer Duck was one of those projects where I had the best clients who trusted me to guide them through the difficult task of building a new house. What's even better, they trusted themselves to make some gutsy decisions and pushed through to get them done. I was able to get over one last time before they moved in and of course, the painters were still there doing last minute touch-ups. I really wanted to have this house professionally photographed, but it just didn't work out.

This entry foyer is a perfect example of what this room should do. It welcomes you and gives you a preview of what is to come in this home. |

The perfect powder bath. My client found a cute antique cabinet to use as the vanity. Just needs a mirror to complement that chicken wire light! |
 |
I just don't have the words to describe how wonderful this kitchen turned out. |

Farmhouse sink with Torquay counters by Cambria. |

My client and I spent a lot of time finding the perfect lights. Here is one of three vintage ones she found over the summer. |
 |
The family entry, off the garage, with interior brick pavers and board and batten trim. |
 |
Here's a laundry room that took a little effort, but so worth it. Yes, that light is red! |
 |
For the sink, my client found a metal tub and paired it with a wall-mount tub filler. Genius! |
 |
Master bath with wood floors. My first time doing this on a project and so happy with how it turned out. With just a little extra care, these should last for years to come. |
 |
Another vintage light... |
 |
Their son's bathroom turned out so great! Vintage hexagon tile on the floor, white subway tile in the tub and a blue cabinet. |
 |
In my last post about Summer Duck, I promised there would be a red front door. This is the best photo I could get of that for you. Oh, and here's the last vintage light. |
You can see more photos of Summer Duck on my Houzz profile and I can't wait to share more projects with you after the new year. I wish you and yours a safe and joyous holiday. We will continue to cherish our time with family and do our best to remember the real meaning of Christmas!
