Hooked on Houses Sally Field is turning 63 this wknd. Love her! Is anyone else watching "Brothers & Sisters" this season?

Source: hookedonhouses.net
I love Sally Field. I love her so much I’m going to resist doing a joke about how I like her–I really like her! I got totally sucked into watching the first two seasons of “Brothers & Sisters” on DVD this month while working on this post about the sets. ...

I love brother and sisters however, I am bored with Sally Field's character always crying and worrying. She needs to get a life!

Hooked on Houses According to People.com, fashion stylist Rachel Zoe just fired the (always complaining) Taylor. I think what surprises me most is how long she lasted!

Uh-oh. I just got sucked into another addictive reality show. Have you seen The Rachel Zoe Project on Bravo? It follows stylist-to-the-stars Rachel Zoe and her assistants Taylor and Brad as they stress ...

Hooked on Houses I've got a fun giveaway for you today. Come see!

See this fireplace wall decked out for fall? Four kinds of Sticviews were used to create a look that can easily be changed again for Christmas: 1) the leaves on the overmantel, 2) the patterns on the tile, 3) the message across the mantel, and even 4) the black and white family photo.

Hooked on Houses I took a quiz that said my Color Personality is "Shades of Pale." Hope that's not a crack about my Irish skin tone. ;)

I just discovered the Color Personality Profile Quiz over at the Pratt & Lambert Paints website (via How About Orange) and thought it was fun. It asks you a few unexpected questions like, “What ...

Ha ha...when I watched that movie with my kids & grandkids, I just kept saying, "I love his house!" I'm so glad I found this page because I thought I was the only one who noticed houses in movies. It's nice to know that I'm not alone! :)

Hooked on Houses I was so excited when I heard that the townhouse from Howards End is for sale. Gives us a chance to peek inside and see what it really looks like!

Monday I showed you the ivy-covered cottage from the classic Merchant-Ivory film Howards End. Today we’re taking a look at another property from the movie: 6 Wickham Place. This is where the Schlegel sisters, played by Emma Thompson and Helena Bonham-Carter, lived.

Hooked on Houses The voting just started on my blog, but there's already a clear favorite!

Source: hookedonhouses.net
It’s the first Tuesday in November, which is Election Day in the U.S. Did you vote yet? A year ago I asked you to vote for your favorite kitchen on Election Day. This year I thought it would be fun to vote for your favorite house style.

I also voted for the bungalow but I really LOVE the gorgeous Tudor that is featured here. It has a library with a fireplace. *sigh*

Hooked on Houses It's Movie Monday--one of my favorite blog-days of the week! :-)

Howards End is a movie for people who love houses. Its name comes from an old cottage in the country owned by the wealthy Wilcox family. Vanessa Redgrave plays Ruth Wilcox, who inherited Howards End from her brother, and she has a deep, emotional attachment to it. ...

Hooked on Houses All of you who thought Charlie Sheen's house was too white and cold looking will probably love the colorful farmhouse I featured today!

When I spotted this charming old farmhouse over on Lookiloos, it made me smile. Some houses just make you happy to look at them. When the new owners found it, though, the house had been neglected–and on the market–for a long time. ...

Hooked on Houses Tonite at dinner, my 7-yr old said, "I'm not going to say the 'F' word." What?! "You know, the f-u word." What?! She whispered, "Full. I'm not going to say I'm full because then you won't let me have dessert." Oh, okay, then! ;)

Charlie Sheen and his wife Brooke Mueller have put their Mediterranean-style home on the market for $3.7 million in the Los Feliz neighborhood of L.A. It’s a beautiful home. Here are some photos from the listing (Sotheby’s International Realty):

like the house, but all these places are so cold looking. Maybe it's just the staging, but they don't look "lived in " !

Hooked on Houses I was cringing through a lot of the "Flipping Out" reunion special last night. Did you see it? Jeff and Ryan decided to break up instead of make up--made me sad.
