The Homegrown Apple House Plans

When we decided to build this house we had trouble finding a floor plan we liked so we decided to design the layout ourselves. Our house has an open floor plan, two bedrooms, one bathroom and laundry room in 1197sq ft. Your purchase will include the basic floor plan, elevations and dimensions.

I did research for a while last year to find out w I did research for a while last year to find out which chickens lay these beautiful chocolate brown eggs. I finally discovered that the Marans are the best breed to get. I have Black Marans but they come in a variety including Cuckoo, Silver Cuckoo, Gold Cuckoo, Black Copper, Blue Copper, Splash Copper, Wheaten, Black-Tailed Buff, White, Black, Blue, Splash, Birchen and Columbian.

If you’re thinking of getting chicks this spring and you want some beautiful chocolate brown eggs in the mix I highly recommend! They’re a joy sparker for sure!
I added a little gallery wall over the weekend. I’ve never actually had any wall space to do something like this before in our little house. We just either had doors or windows on all the little walls 😂 And can you see the baseboards! When your husband is doing things himself and already works two busy jobs things just go slower. But we’re saving money and it’s getting done little by little. 

I love the artwork I added from the big kids here. Scroll through to see them close up. Warren did the sketch of the fish and Amelia did the embroidered bicycle 🫶🏻
It’s a cold and story first day of February and It’s a cold and story first day of February and this morning the whole property was covered in a dense fog. A nice way to start off the cozy month of February if you ask me! 

I’ll just be over here lighting all of my favorite candles in every room. It’s making it smell so good in the house.
 
These are my favorite candles for ao many reasons!
Nontoxic, 80 hours of burn time, they burn all the way down (they don’t make that hollow cylinder like some candles make down the middle ya know?), lead free cotton wicks, 100% natural soy wax from domestically grown soy beans, premium fragrance oils that won’t give you a headache and aren’t too strong, paraben, paraffin, dye, phthalate and cruelty free. 

Just so many reasons to enjoy these candles in your home! 

Comment “candles” and I’ll send you a link to them with my discount code!
I found these pretty blue floral plates a while ba I found these pretty blue floral plates a while back and knew exactly where I wanted to hang them. I had never hung a plate before and wanted to do the least damage to my newly painted walls. When I found these hanging discs made in England I bought them right away. I was so excited to try them and they ended up being so easy! 

All you do is wet them which activates a glue on the back. Then, adhere them to the back of your plate and let them dry overnight. Once they dry they’re ready to be hung up! If you ever decide you don’t want them hung anymore, just wet the back again and the glue will get released as it softens. 

Comment “plate hangers” below and I’ll send you a link to these discs along with a pretty collection of blue plates!
I can’t believe this summer will be 4 years host I can’t believe this summer will be 4 years hosting guests at our barn loft Airbnb! Creating this little space into a retreat for people to come enjoy has been so rewarding. We’ve had over 240 smashing reviews by guests from all over the world and I’m so excited to continue sharing this special space. It’s been such a joy to meet so many of you too! Comment “airbnb” below if you’d like me to send you the link  to check it out. And don’t forget to DM me and ask about my insta friends discount!
