MY BROTHERS PLACE

If you haven't already done so - please sign up for TODAY'S PRIMITIVE HOME NEWSLETTER...I have a pretty good article running this month....here's the link: http://www.todaysprimitivehome.com/

Last weekend while we were at my brothers I took a few picture of the interior - notice all the snow? Well, there wasn't that much when we were there but they certainly did have more on the ground than we do here - they live north of us by 3 hours in the area all of us call 'up north'!

Thier all brick home sits on 5 absolutely gorgeous acres. Gene has worked so hard clearing the land , replanting trees and making it the most peaceful place I've ever seen....while Gail makes the inside just as comfortable.

I thought I'd share a few pictures of their place
The first two speak for themselves




One day a couple years ago we all went shopping and Gail saw this great wall shelf but the price was way over the top so Gene came home and built her one - it looks just like the store one (but better). Hard to judge size in the picture but it is approx. 3-1/2 x 3-1/2 and it hangs on the open stairway wall leading down to the basement.


Sofa in living room - we have the same one


Loveseat in same room


Basket on French doors leading to entry


Top of cupboard in dining room


Neat bucket with pretties!

  6. What a beautiful place! We vacationed a couple of summers when I was younger in northern Wisconsin...a place called Three Rivers. Beautiful country up there.
    I love the decor, and the setting is gorgeous!
