California ranch and bungalows

Having lived in Southern California for my whole childhood doesn't make me want to move back, but Southern California has some of the nicest ranch homes. I discovered their bungalows and love them too. If I ever do move back, it'll be for the houses.

Thankfully, my favorites aren't the million-dollar homes but the ones around 400-800K. It's still pretty expensive, but not completely unfathomable.

Modernist Bungalow isn't particularly my style, but it's put together really nicely.








The exteriors are sometimes more fantastic than the interiors...

I really want the shower curtains! I wonder where it's from... must ask.

Swiffers never really picked up all the hair or dirt from my floors. Will Shamwow work?

I love these headboards!

Take 2: Target Home Design Event

Okay, I was a bit tough on the Target Home Design Event. There were a few acceptable items and even enough items to make a top 10 fave list. Always good prices also. Granted, I didn't see many of these at the store.

(Click to enlarge)

1. Mirror - Distressed Gray $56
2. 3-piece Bath Towel Set - Coral $22
3. Mulberry Bathroom Collection $9-21
4. Natural Bamboo Pressed Vase $21
5. 4-Drawer Dresser - Black $259
6. Large Black Terracotta Bottle Vase $21
7. Storage Box - Teak $56
8. Bamboo Tray - Natural $14
9. Apothecary Jar Collection $10.50
10. 12-Drawer Floor Cabinet - White $140

These choices call for a spa-like bathroom, a Chinese herb shop-like something, and oh do I love the terracotta bottle vase (#4) with its painted "wood."
