Flipping Out.

If I could do anything in the world, it would be flipping houses. My high school boyfriend and I said that when I graduated college, we would start a house flipping business in Charleston, South Carolina (my most favorite city, like, ever). Well, the boyfriend didn't work out and neither did the whole Charleston thing, but my dream of flipping houses still exits.

So with my passion, comes a slight torture. I am on Redfin all day finding houses I would want to flip. I literally call my realtor on a weekly basis (who is also my cousin) and say "So I found a new house, it's just over $900,000 but for the neighborhood, it is such a deal. Besides winning the lottery or selling a child, how can we can we make this work?" Normally, she has already hung up before I finish my sentence. Anyways, this is my current house I am obsessing over:

It is a beautiful house, in an amazing neighborhood and could be worth more than $2 million, but the inside is a little dated.

So I obviously already completely renovated the entire house. And, of course, I started with the kitchen. Before:

And here is what I would like to do...

(1) Gorgeous unexpected china & barware (2) Dalmatian Spotted Coffee Nook (3) Black Hicks Pendant Lights (4) Campaign Style Cabinetry (5) Huge island & multiple counter stools (6) Viking Sealed Burner Gas Range & Huge Viking Chimney Hood Vent (7) Farmers Sink, Open shelving, Fridge next to sink (8) Enormous Dining Table with Multiple Light Fixtures

It would be fabulous, right!? Until the day I can actually buy these houses...I will just keep dreaming...
