Highly recommend getting a squeegee and keeping it in the shower. Those extra 30 seconds at the end of the shower will help with the glass shower door upkeep.

[@yvonnepalmquist8676]

I absolutely love the layout of your home. I look at a lot of layouts and they're never what I want... I would totally pick this! Wow!

[@flourishingmiranda]

Thank you!! It’s funny we walked through a lot of models with different companies and sometimes one layout just feels “right”!

[@yvonnepalmquist8676]

@@flourishingmiranda Your video perfectly showed the layout, too. It’s rare that I can understand the layout through a video. Great job!

[@halinakatarzyna]

It's SO BEAUTIFUL!! And that kitchen is to die for. Not too big that it's TOO much, but plenty of space to do whatever you'd need! So much cabinet space!!! I do want to ask about the build quality, without coming off as rude? I know at least in my area, new builds are getting worse and worse in terms of both material and construction. Maybe I watch too many home inspection videos on TikTok! It seems like you both have been pretty involved in the whole process so I'm sure it's great! Can't wait to see it decorated!!

[@flourishingmiranda]

It’s like watching HGTV and seeing someone buy a preownded home with rotten floor boards and assuming everyone has that 🤷🏻‍♀️ We were involved in each and every step and picked our builder based on the quality AND the warranties. We have friends who have other builders with not so great experiences. I could make a list of things that changed for us to increase quality but I don’t think everyone gets the same experience. I think everyone wants to slam builders without having a personal real experience!

[@halinakatarzyna]

@@flourishingmiranda I understand, and I'm sorry if I seemed like I was coming off any type of way. That wasn't my intent at all!!

[@flourishingmiranda]

@@halinakatarzyna oh sorry I meant that towards tiktok not you! I should have clarified -- like tiktok is obviously for views that’s popular so it seems like negative always out weights positive so that’s what people automatically think when they see new build but it’s not fairly accurate!! Yes issues happen that’s part human error but also error with martial with the pandemic setting everyone back! BUT - some builders are just bad and take advantage of people! My hope is people take the time to do research, talk to people who’s built the home they’re looking at and spend time being there for the inspections, reading the contract and knowing what they’re getting themselves into so they aren’t surprised when there is a real issue!

[@marlenetopping2907]

How exciting! Congratulations on your beautiful new home! 🎉So happy for you both. Looking forward to seeing it once it’s all decorated. 💖

The lady who did our design told me this sink was EVERYTHING and I think it’s amazing!!! I did dishes last night and was so happy with the deep sink! Our home gym is going in the garage! I have my bike, treadmill and bench set up in there now. Down the road we’ll add a few more pieces for my husband and add storage to the other side so it’ll have a nice flow! Right now it’s a bit crazy with some items still in boxes and other items we plan to sell

I'm so happy for you guys, it's a blessing seeing how you've been such good stewards of the resources God has given you and then seeing the payoff with your lovely new home. It's such a joy filling the home and decorating. I love searching for the perfect pieces at the perfect price, sometimes you find treasures at the thrift store that needs a little love but is a diamond in the rough. You mentioned mid century modern which is my favorite design, say 1964. I found a lovely midmod Lane two tiered end table that was scratched and filthy but once cleaned and polished you couldn't even see the scratches, it went perfect in our midmod loft and was a steal at 19.00 bucks. Your going to have so much fun , each piece will have its own story and be an adventure to find and you'll make memories just decorating and filling your home. I'm so thrilled for you guys. Be blessed in your new home and enjoy every day waking up in it and saying to yourself, "this is ours ! " 🥰😃🤗 Merry Christmas and happy new year !

[@flourishingmiranda]

I have a few pieces in my garage to Re -do which I’ve never done before!! 2 lamps which I ordered new shades for and than 2 bedside end tables! I was going to try to make a weekend project of them! Mid century modern is my fav about 1964-1973 the colors, shapes and style is fabulous!!! I like that it’s all coming back into style and you can add new and old touches. Our home “colors” for design are mustard yellows, browns, cognac, sage, creams and navy. I think every piece will go so beautifully against the soft touch of gray walls and the wood flooring!

Oh I am soooo happy for you guys and I love the house and everything you did!!! We are building too and did the same thing with our backsplash, I didn’t like any either and said leave it 😂 Just curious but Is the brick wall fencing a Vegas thing, I’ve never seen that before. The privacy will be great!!

[@flourishingmiranda]

Yes it’s a Vegas thing! It’s so funny you mentioned the wall, my MIL was like “I don’t get it-- why don’t you paint it pretty with pictures?!”🤣🤣🤣 it’s great here for the strong winds so it doesn’t blow the dust and dirt around it gives you a barrier! Omgggg I didn’t know you were building too!! I bet you’re having so much fun! Let me know what you pick for a back splash. All that’s in right now is either BOLD or shiny and I just wanted a mute matte and they had nothing I liked so we left it open and I can do it in the next few month

[@tracyc1121]

@@flourishingmiranda that’s makes sense about the dust! Ugh yes the shiny tile for the backsplash reminds me of bathroom tile I just couldn’t do it 🤣. Our house won’t be done until Aug/Sept 😩 but it’s exciting!!

[@sunflowerrosem.8651]

Actually we have brick walls here in Socal, and our home was built in 1992. Some of the older tract homes have wood fences, but now most homes have the brick. It's much easier to maintain, and doesn't get the bleached areas from sprinklers hitting it daily. 😊
