The blogworld is full of never-ending inspirational blogs and Cleverly Inspired is one of them.  I never run out of material for this series, because there are countless beautiful homes out there to show off.

Tracie is a talented gal from Kentucky, who has done some amazing projects around her house too.  She and her hubby have big plans to paint the exterior of their home, but for now it looks like this.

Quite beautiful with the snow scene in classic red brick.

Inside, lots of inspiration pics await.  Tracie tackled her dirty carpeted stairs too and look how they turned out!  Beautiful!   She added that board and batten to the hallway too.

Tracie got on the white kitchen trend too and lightened up her dark cabinets with paint and light fixtures.

These lanterns are so pretty hanging over the island.

The dining room is spacious and calming in a cool shade of blue.

And a classic modern chandelier in the hallway adds some punch.

Tracie has a boy and girl and last year did an update in her boy’s room to blue and orange and it is very cool now.

She also turned a bedroom into a home office and I love how this one turned out.

A rustic desk in the corner and lots of fun pics on the gallery wall.

Tracie’s girl’s room is equally cute and colorful.

Hope you enjoyed this tour of another talented blogger.  Stop by and visit Cleverly Inspired for lots more inspiration. She has lots of recipes to share too.

    I love the blue walls and the picture above the door in the hallway. Both, as well as the lantern light fixtures, are such nice touches. Really enjoyed the tour! Thank you for sharing.

    Rhoda thanks for sharing this tour! I am in love with the bedroom turned home office transformation and Tracie’s girl’s room. I have an extra room that needs updating so I thought I could get ideas from them.
