Here's a project undertaken by a couple who filled their home with bold colors and additional space.

We all love our stuff! On Cape Cod we all need beach chairs, coolers, books, tennis racquets, leashes for the dog...you name it! But it can become overwhelming if it's A.O.P.! (All Over the Place). It's much more fun to be able to find your stuff when you need it. Getting organized and staying that way can be a challenge. Here are some savvy tips to creating spaces that will stay organized.

Last week we talked about the Death of Stainless Steel in your kitchen, and this week, I guess we can talk about another dying feature... the Dining Room. Rarely over the last 10 years, in either Custom Homes, or Remodeling have we built or even designed a true formal dining room. Maybe it is a trend towards more multi-function space, such as the typical large great room, eating area, kitchen area that you see in most modern homes. Part of the reason that dining rooms have declined in popularity, is that they only serve one purpose, and after you put the dining room table in there, there is not much room left for anything else. There are creative ways to design a formal dining space that still can serve many purposes, and doesn't waste space in the home. If you are thinking about Building a New Custom Home, or Renovating your existing Cape Cod home, contact us today to find out how we can help!

Planning your New Home, Remodeling or Renovation project can be a fun and exciting process. We often tell our customers to make a list of "wants" and "needs" and to always make sure to prioritize the needs first. The internet and television are full of trendy ideas that look good at first, but can be both impractical, and a waste of money. We found an article from msn.com that provides a list of the 8 most overrated home improvement projects. Items such as home theaters, and large jacuzzi tubs are just a few of the things that they describe as items that look great, but never get used and cost a lot of money. There is also a list of suggestions for projects that do make sense and can enhance the look and value of your next home project.
Here is the full article from MSN.com: 8 Overrated Home Improvements.
