47 CREATIVE HOMES THAT STARTED AS BARGAIN BUILDINGSAuthor: Kinney, Jean and Cle Illustrator: Illustrated B/w Photos.Note from Charmaine: One of my all time favorite books for thinking outside the boxy [home] for creative housing! Fruit stands, windmills, old dress shops, a fort, barn, cottage, cabin, a greenhouse, an old schoolhouse, a petrol station, waterfront sheds, and more. Jean and Cle Kinney have chronicled the conversion of fortyseven of America's most attractive and unusual homes. Each of them started as a "wreck." Many of them have gone on to win prizes. The question is: can you still find buildings to do this kind of thing? YES in many rural areas...you can!! Thinking out side the box..with a copy of this book in hand will get your mind in the right direction. FROM FRUIT STANDs TO DRESS SHOPS, GRANERIES, BARNS, FUEL STATIONS AND WINDMILLS...GREAT IDEAS TO EXPAND YOUR IDEA OF WHAT A 'HOME' CAN BE.
