I thought that this house was in Europe, but it's actually a 1994 build in Holliday, Utah. According to the description, renowned architect, David Easton, designed this Cape Dutch style cottage and put his heart and soul into every detail. The roof is thatch (where do you find someone to maintain that?). 2bds, 3ba, $4.5M.
Tumblr media
Interesting to see a clock on the exterior of a home- gives it a Bavarian look.
Tumblr media
A "sally port" goes thru the middle of the house.
Tumblr media
Too small to be a sun room, this addition is an interesting window jut-out.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
How it looks from inside. This is the great room and it has a bar.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
They don't show a kitchen or dining room, they go directly upstairs to the 2 bedroom suites.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The bedrooms have lots of built-ins and thatched ceilings.
Tumblr media
Adorable beehive tiles on the fireplace surround.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The home was built in 1994, but the doors are antique wood with original antique hardware.
Tumblr media
Isn't this a beautiful piece?
Tumblr media
The mirror frame matches the door.
Tumblr media
This bedroom is a lovely peach color.
Tumblr media
There is also a horse barn on the property.
Tumblr media
It's pretty large so I'm surprised that there's no fenced-in coral area.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The home is in the corner of a 2 acre lot.

i’m a bit behind on the timewarp au, so i’m sorry if someone’s already asked this! buuttt… how did everyones sense of fashion change in modern day?
me, sitting here in my decade's old hoodie and pikachu pajama shorts: yes, fashion
Hosea is a v subservient husband who wears anything his wife gets him. Sometimes he's the high fashion old man with the tailors pants and crisp shirt under a blazer. Sometimes it's the rattiest home-made sweater with dropped stitches that somehow matches his $4 slippers and he just looks even older than he is but so snug.
Arthur wears nothing but jeans and t-shirts with the occasional jacket unless someone else picks out clothes for him. He still wears cowboy boots.
Sean and Lenny are all walmart/shein/temu horrid patterns cheap clothing boys. The closest Sean gets to fashion is his pizza delivery uniform. Lenny learns a little bit about fashion by googling 'college outfits for men'.
Charles lives in heavy-duty trade jeans and plaid flannels. Flannel shirt. Too cold for flannel shirt? Black shirt under flannel jacket. Carries high-vis in his truck. Lumberjack core.
Kieran exclusively wears hoodies. Admittedly some are 'nice' hoodies but then comes the impossible challenge of finding pants he will willing wear. He needs to be warned if he's expected to leave the house 2 days in advance to do washing.
Javier lives for the concept of fashion and just looks like an instagram model at all times. Just a diva. It isn't until he shows up and corrects the 1899's gang sense of fashion they actually look decent.
John and Jack both fall in love with emo. Leather jackets, black jeans, chokers. Abigail spends so much on anti-fade laundry detergent.
Abigail and Karen end up with very similar fashion styles. The occasional summer dress but mostly pants, nice shirts - functional clothes for chasing around their demonic little girls. Abigail is a cardigan queen.
Grimshaw would burn her dresses if she could. She discovered the luxury of pants and never looked back. Still rocks a corset though. Anyone brave enough to catcall her is getting tased, pepper-sprayed or shot depending on her mood.
When Dutch isn't in the hospital he still wears basically just his canon era vests, buttoned shirts and fitted pants - in the hospital it's psych-ward issues jammies for him.
Molly looks like a cottage-core queen and has the rolling to pack it up.

I have to say I adore old/vintage/retro ceramics/pottery. I have some really nice pieces in my collection. Some are very old and some contemporary. Mostly Polish but also Japanese, English, Dutch and German. Recently I've bought a lovely mid-century modern plate, so called Picasso style. Its factory number is 186 and the designer was Elżbieta Piwek-Białoborska. It was made in the famous factory in Włocławek. And I don't even mind there are few chips on the edge. Few years ago I bought a mug called "Zośka" from a factory in Mirostowice. It's another lovely example of mid-century modern ceramics. Last weekend I found the same type of mug and now I have a nice pair. Those mugs bring back memories. I used to drink milk or cocoa from such mugs when I was a kid and staying at my grandparents' cottage.
As I was doing shopping in another district, I spotted an interesting old mosaic made of broken plates and mugs. I immediately recognised those broken pieces. Those were plates and mugs from another famous Polish factory - the one in Pruszków. That grid pattern comes from a set called "Sylvia".

Peterhoff Palace Complex
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Photographs: Different views of Peterhof, which, rather than one specific place, is an astoundingly beautiful complex of palaces, gardens, pavilions, and fountains. The photos here and the text are a mere preview of a fraction of the place in all its grandeur.
The Grand Palace, Lower and Upper Gardens and Fountains
The Peterhoff Palace (which comes from the Dutch "Pieterhof," meaning "Pieter's Court") is a complex of palaces, gardens, pavilions, and fountains located in Petergof, Saint Petersburg, Russia, commissioned by Peter the Great in response to Louis XIV Palace of Versailles in France.
Peter the Great began constructing his new capital, St. Petersburg, in 1703 after successfully adding Swedish provinces to Russian territory.  Saint Petersburg allowed Russian access to the Baltic Sea through the Neva River that flowed to the Gulf of Finland.
Throughout the early 18th century, Peter the Great built and expanded the Peterhof Palace complex. Based on his sketches, he constructed the Monplaisir Palace (French: "my delight"). This would be Peter's summer retreat that he would use on his way coming and going from Europe. Later, he expanded his plans to include a group of palaces and gardens further inland, on the model of Versailles.
Most of the Peterhoff land is comprised of what is called the "Lower Gardens." In the middle of the lower gardens is the Grand Palace. The area behind this palace is the "Upper Gardens" and is comparatively smaller. The Grand Palace is not the only historic royal building in Peterhoff. The palaces of Monplaisir and Marli, as well as the pavilion known as the 'Hermitage,' were all raised during the initial construction of Peterhoff during the reign of Peter the Great.
There are a number of cascades and fountains through the grounds, which have various symbolic meanings and are in themselves great technological achievements. The greatest of these is that all of the fountains in Peterhoff operate without the use of pumps. Water is supplied from natural springs and collects in reservoirs in the Upper Gardens. The elevation difference creates the pressure that drives most of the fountains of the Lower Gardens.
Tumblr media
Gothic Chapel in Peterhof:  An Orthodox church in the name of Saint Alexander Nevsky situated in the Alexandria Park; Nicholas I ordered its construction to complement the Cottage Palace
Alexandria Park, the Cottage Palace, and the Farmers Palace
To the east of the main park at Peterhof lies an expanse of landscaped parkland in the English style, named after Alexandra Fedorovna, wife of Nicholas I. The land was used as a royal hunting ground for most of the 18th century and left to go wild after the court moved to Tsarskoe Selo.
In 1825, the land was passed to Nicholas I, who commissioned a Scottish architect and landscape gardener to create an English-style estate with a "cottage" palace and home farm. This was partly a concession to Alexandra (nee Charlotte of Prussia), who found the pomp and grandeur of court life oppressive. Alexandra loved the cottage. The Cottage Palace was completed in 1829 and became the permanent summer residence of the Tsar's family. Alexandria Park is one of the best-landscaped parks on the outskirts of St. Petersburg.
The building is equal parts seaside villa, Gothic castle, and English farmhouse, but extremely elegant, with several charming decorative details. The palace's interiors exemplify the private tastes of Nicholas and Alexandra and their children and grandchildren. The spectacular trompe l'oeil murals around the staircase, depicting gothic arches and vaults, and Nicholas's Naval Study, with superb views over the Gulf of Finland, are particularly impressive.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The Farm Palace was initially a pavilion in Alexandria Park close to the Cottage Palace and Gothic Chapel. Meant to be a pastoral farm with a row of household buildings, it was later expanded into a summer residence for the family of Tsesarevich Alexander Alexandrovich of Russia. The palace became the favorite summer residence of Alexander II and his family. After many reconstructions, the house was named "The Farm Palace" in 1859. It would eventually be a favorite of Alexander III and Nicholas II.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The Lower Dacha at Peterhoff (badly damaged in World War II and destroyed in the 1960s) - in the process of reconstruction
The Lower Dacha was in Alexandria Park, part of the Peterhof complex created by Tsar Peter I in the early 18th century as an Imperial summer residence. The palace was the home of Tsar Nicholas II while in residence at Peterhof (it was built for him), and several of his children were born there. It was badly damaged during the Second World War and was destroyed in the 1960s. The Lower Dacha is in the process of being restored. It is expected that the restoration will be completed by 2025. The picture below where the intact building can be seen, is from the early twentieth century. Photographs of the ruins have been included as well.

Like the peice with Ultra Twister and Viper, I made another peice with a simplified art style, this time featuring the kiddy coasters of Great Adventure, Knoebels, and Dutch Wonderland. I like to imagine that their sleepover is taking place at one of Knoebels’ on-site “cottages”. Joust’s coaster may be the oldest of the trio, but this little guy’s fast asleep— but he’s made sure to keep his sword and shield close by (and is likely sleeping in his usual set of clothes). Kozmo is engrossed by a new “scout’s guidebook” she picked up, so much so that she doesn’t even realize that Lil’ Devil Coaster has taken Joust’s sheild to “get a closer look”. Knowing how protective Joust is of his stuff…LDC better hope he sleeps through it. Featuring my kiddy coaster ocs was an idea I’ve had for a while, but didn’t get to it until this year. It was fun designing color-coordinated sleeping bags for this trio!

5 Sliding Glass Door Alternatives For Your Home
When considering options to replace your sliding glass doors, it is essential to explore alternatives that provide the same benefits while offering additional features. Here are five sliding glass door alternatives that might suit your home’s aesthetic and functional needs.
1. French Doors
French doors are a timeless and elegant choice. Comprising two doors that open outward or inward from the center, they provide a classic look while allowing ample natural light to flow into your space. French doors are highly customizable, available in a variety of materials including wood, fiberglass, and steel. Their versatile design can complement both traditional and contemporary home styles. Additionally, French doors offer better insulation compared to sliding glass doors, potentially leading to energy savings.
2. Bi-Fold Doors
Bi-fold doors, also known as folding or accordion doors, are an excellent option for those looking to create a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living spaces. These doors consist of multiple panels that fold back against each other, opening up the entire wall space. Bi-fold doors are perfect for large openings and can significantly enhance the flow of natural light and air. They are typically made from materials such as aluminum, wood, or vinyl, providing various options to match your home’s decor. The ease of opening and closing these doors adds to their appeal, making them a practical choice for busy households.
3. Pivot Doors
For a modern and stylish alternative, consider pivot doors. Unlike traditional hinged doors, pivot doors rotate on a central pivot point, allowing for a unique and eye-catching entrance. These doors are ideal for larger openings and can be made from a range of materials, including glass, metal, and wood. Pivot doors offer a sleek, minimalist aesthetic and can be customized to include sidelights or transoms to enhance natural light. Their innovative design can make a bold statement, adding a contemporary touch to your home.
4. Dutch Doors
Dutch doors, also known as stable doors, are a charming and functional option that allows you to open the top half of the door while keeping the bottom half closed. This design is particularly useful for homes with pets or young children, as it provides ventilation while maintaining security. Dutch doors are typically made from wood and can be customized with glass inserts for added light. They bring a rustic and cozy feel to your home, making them a great choice for cottages or country-style residences.
5. Stacking Doors
Stacking doors also referred to as multi-slide doors, operate similarly to sliding glass doors but with multiple panels that stack behind one another when opened. This design allows for a larger opening, creating a wide, unobstructed view and easy access to outdoor spaces. Stacking doors are perfect for homes with expansive patios or decks, enhancing the indoor-outdoor living experience. Available in materials such as aluminum, wood, and uPVC, they offer flexibility in design and functionality. These doors provide excellent insulation and security, making them a practical and stylish choice.
Front Door Replacement Considerations
When considering a front door replacement, it's essential to think about how it will coordinate with your choice of patio or balcony doors. For instance, if you opt for French doors as an alternative to sliding glass doors, selecting a front door with similar design elements can create a cohesive look throughout your home. Matching materials, colors, and styles between your front door and other exterior doors can enhance your home’s curb appeal and overall aesthetic.
Conclusion
While sliding glass doors are a popular choice for many homes, exploring alternatives such as French doors, bi-fold doors, pivot doors, Dutch doors, and stacking doors can provide unique benefits and elevate your home’s style. Whether you prioritize aesthetics, functionality, or energy efficiency, there is a door solution that can meet your needs and preferences. Make sure to consider how these alternatives integrate with your home's overall design, especially when planning a front door replacement, to ensure a harmonious and attractive exterior.
