The easiest way to get J excited about {and thus totally on board with} any home project is to mention mid-century architecture. This is no different. After all, my dad was able to build an awesome coop after I sent them a few photos of modern ones for sale. Behold:
Who says I can't have a mid century chicken coop? I Googled a few images...
...and came up with this:
{I know, a bit hard to read. Wait til I get the Adobe Illustrator version finished...} Then, while we were focusing on the backyard anyway, J suggested we build a fire pit:
We could even put in a half-moon bench as pictured in this Elle Decor photo...
...and add a few of these chairs to complete the area.
While we're at it, why don't we reduce the size of the coop and put in a sandbox for the kids? Like so:
Why yes, I DO think a mobile would look great hanging from a tree branch above!
And the porch? Well, I think two of these chairs and a small side table would suffice for those early morning breakfasts as we watch the sun rise...
Cost? Oh,..... right. Well, that's why this post is entitled 'Dreaming'. :)
What do you daydream about?

Love. I daydream about one day having exactly your artistic sense. And fashion sense. :)
A mid-century mod coop - you are too cool! Sounds awesome. And my advice is totally do the firepit. We love ours. Because we love SMORES!
I love that you know what you love. Sometimes I can't even decide what I like.
