One of my favourite tours on AP in a long time. So often it feels like I'm looking at the same choices but I was excited to hit the "next" button to see what was next each time.
So well edited. It feels fresh and yet cozy. Thanks for the tour!

This home has all the elements that are New Orleans to me; the drapes and tassel tie back, the brass and pleated shade lamps, the brick, the high ceilings. The room is so well done! The refined luxury and history of the city come through and it makes me want to go back.

I love 'em!

I have to agree about the bar soap. No plastic, lasts longer, and can be made all natural with essential oils. I switched back a year ago- both for the shower and for hand washing. I still keep a refillable gel soap container & soap around for guests, but my friends are fine with bar soap too, so it rarely gets used

This is my favorite house tour for quite some time. I really love it, and feel both inspired and covetous of this beautiful home!

LOVE the changes. They were very much needed.

I'm worried about that curtain by the gas stove.

I once complained to a friend that I was so poor that I couldn't eat healthy foods anymore, and she flat out laughed at me. Five years later, and some learning about what healthy food is, I now spend 1/8th of the cost on food as I did in the past and eat a very healthy and tasty diet. Fresh produce, dried beans, and brown rice are some of the cheapest things you can buy.
I feel only people who feel a sense of lack, and live in a state of fear would need to hoard processed foods, or to feel a sense of security about having enough and being fed.
The practicality of it is ridiculous.

I think distressed wall can work, but you need a sharper juxtapose with some "new". 1 out of 4 walls only, or pristine floors and modern windows. In New Orleans alot of the old and interesting walls are covered with a sealant so you can see the history, but are also able to wash it clean.

AT is the one place I visit faithfully every day and never lose the excitement to see what will be there next. Congrats on all you have created here!
