Why do you want to do this?

I love where I live now but I want something that is out of this world. I want a home that I return to and think "wow, how did I pull this one off!" It should be comfortable and functional but also a home that was fun!

What three things will you need to make this happen?

Money

Time to look for the perfect place -- it took us over a year to find the perfect rental! We are picky!

Money!

What is the biggest barrier to your achieving this?

Money -- my husband and I have expensive taste and it might be hard realizing that we can't afford all of the fabulousness we'd like

This is such an exciting goal.  Are you and your husband thinking of building this 'Dream Home' yourselves or are you thinking of finding it on the market?  Something in the area, or is a relocation required as well?

Hi Andrea -- thanks so much!  We aren't really looking -- this is a long term goal I think.  Right now we are living in NYC and not ready to give up city life.  So for now it would have to be an absolutely fabulous apartment! 

I have a photo of the entrance on my vision board.  Stay stuned!

I saw pictures of your NY apartment.  Very awesome and congratulations!  

Hubby and I were going to build our Dream Home.  So for about 10 years, I kept a file of all the fantastic design ideas, archetectural plans we liked, construction materials, decorating ideas and color schemes.  It was an amazing collection and probably would have looked a whole lot better on a vision board.  What a fantastic idea. 

Love to stay tuned and looking forward to your updates - despite the long term nature of this goal.  It's always fun to dream-build.    Oh, how was Oprah?

Read your stories about Oprah.  Must have been incredible to be there.  She's truly an inspiration.
