Finding a use for license plates in the home.

I went on a hike this weekend and ended at Little Bear Saloon in Evergreen for lunch. Little Bear is an eclectic saloon in downtown Evergreen and the walls showcased license plates from different places of the world. I stopped to scan the walls to locate a New Hampshire plate but never did but the saloon reminded me that I have two unused New Hampshire license plates that I would love to put to use in my new home. Unsure of what to do with my license plates, I took to the Internet for some ideas. Lo and behold there are some great ideas for what to do with unused license plates. 

License plates can be used to layer bookshelves....

What would you do with your unused license plates? With so many transplants in Denver, I would imagine the community should have a good number of old license plates.

Just Sold in Denver

There is nothing more satisfying than finding the perfect home for a buyer, especially in this difficult market. Being an art teacher, this space offers my buyer the opportunity for an art studio, room to store her art work and plenty of entertaining space for her and all her friends. The home's distinctive personality matches Stephanie's bubbly, charismatic personality perfectly!

Thanks Stephanie for letting me help you find your first home. I am so happy that we have become friends through this process. 

Looking to purchase a home? I would love to help!

A Bike in the Bathroom

Another unique idea for the home. A bike instead of bathroom cabinets. 

Are you a bike lover? Would you want your bike in your bathroom.

Just Sold in Lakewood

Nothing makes me happier than a young woman grabbing life by the horns. Kudos to my buyer (and dear friend), Kelsey for buying her first home in her early 20's! Real estate can be a great investment to help you build a concrete base for your future.

Buyer Series: Sewer Scope

A majority of the home in the Denver Metro area are public water. This was a new concept to me as I grew up with a well. When you are buying a home, you have the opportunity to compile due diligence on the new home during an inspection. A buyer may perform a sewer scope during the inspection period. 

A sewer scope is when a professional from a sewer company inspects the sewer line. A camera is attached to a hose which is run from the house to the main sewer line. The sewer scope will show any breaks or build up in the sewer line. Most sewer scopes cost around $100-$175. 

Are you wondering if you should perform a sewer scope during your inspection? Make sure to ask your agent of the pros and cons.

A Grey Bedroom.

This week marks 8 months since I have moved into my new home and I have finally decided to take on the task of painting my bedroom. I absolutely love grey bedrooms and have been looking for inspiration. My ceilings (like many condos downtown) are concrete and I want to be sure grey walls and a concrete ceiling does not make my room feel cold. A bedroom should feel warm and comfortable as it is the place of rest in the home. 

A number of the grey bedroom that I have looked at feel incredibly austere to me. As I gathered inspiration, I found that a lot of grey bedrooms that I gravitated toward included a natural wood element. Adding feature made out of wood to a grey room is a great way to balance out the cold feeling of grey can sometimes elicit.
