So did my aunt's.

Geez disappear for an hour and everyone gets chatty.

See I am just the opposite....lol I like more soothing colors. I like white...to me thats soothing. maybe an off white. I like grey's....earth tones etc.

I like beach-y colours.
Sadly, these folks have seen pics of just about every room in my house ... including my basement storage room.
Apparently I suffer from over-share-itis.

I tend to like contrasts. My first house had a dark walnut cabinets, coppertone appliances, Orange countertops and back-splash, orange/yellow print wall paper. I'm sure the floor was something gaudy as well, but, I don't remember what it was. That, even I will admit, was a bit over the top.

Ya think?

Did she have an orange sherbet bell bottom jumpsuit too?

I work in peoples homes everyday. You would be surprised how much people basically copy one another....colors etc. Maybe its me and they just all tend to look alike over time, but everyone has the same fridge/stove etc.

Around here, the neighborhoods are generally built by the same builder. So most every home on a block will have the exact same appliances as they were all purchased at the same time in bulk.

Yessssssss the cookie cutter neighborhoods.....know them well.

I live in a craftsman style house......check out the front door.....rounded at the top.

I grew up in one. The next door neighbor on one side had the same floor plan as me. On the other side the house was a mirror image floor plan.

The type of brick and trim work on the outside at least gave the homes some distinction between each other.

I have a "beechy" bathroom I just did in my house.....beadboard halfway up with chair railing.....shells.....pale blue above the white beadboard....turned out really nice.....have to take some pics sometime.

Me too. I sell them. Since 1989. For the same builder.

Truthfully, great pains are taken by builders up here to avoid the "cookie cutter" look.
Each project has "architectural control" which dictates the spacing between identical houses, the total number of the same house type you can sell, approval of exterior colour schemes, and the repetition of brick/stucco colours.

It's actually a very delicate dance to satisfy all of architectural control's mandates.

So you guys decide to chat it up while I was at work, leading me to have 7 pages of catch-up? You're just lucky I didn't miss post #20,000.

I was at work late too, it was parent teacher conferences. Tonight was slow, only 5 conferences, so I spent time on here.
